Lito Girls Cotton Christening Gown Dresses with Bonnet Set - Baby or Infant Girl's Christening Dress,White,0-3 Month

When we had a baby girl for our sixth child after 5 wonderful boys (I guess I should change my Amazon name!), I wanted to get her an especially beautiful infant blessing gown -- something that would be heirloom quality to be saved and passed on if she wants to. I bought several of the most popular christening dresses on Amazon, as well as a few Feltman Bros dresses. This is the dress I kept, all the rest went back!This dress is beautiful for several reasons. It's 100% cotton, so it has an old-fashioned soft thick feel that the cotton-poly Feltman Brothers dresses didn't have. My mother-in-law also said that the 100% cotton would stay whiter than the cotton-poly as it ages if I store it for several years. It's a fairly long dress, and the fabric is thick (but not hot since it's cotton), so it has an expensive feel. It has adorable faux-pearl buttons at the back which look so much richer than the plain white buttons of the Feltman Bros dresses.But the main reason we kept this dress was the fit. It's hard to have a dress that fits a newborn size 0-3 months and everything in between, and this dress did it best. It has elastic around the arm openings which make it fit nice and snug (but not tight). And the bodice is gathered with a bit of stretch where the smocking is, so it fits well there too. And it has a beautiful thick long fabric tie for the back that gathers in any extra at the waist so that it fits well there too.The brand of this dress (Swea' Pea and Lilli) makes several of the top Amazon christening dresses, and they are all very nice. They all have a nice weight to them and lots of the beautiful details this one has. I chose this one because it had simple old-fashioned features (plain cotton instead of modern-looking embroidery, simple smocking instead of shiny lace details, etc), but the other dresses in this line are also beautiful. If you're looking for something trendy or modern or fancy or like your baby is going to prom, this is definitely not the dress for you. My older boys asked why their sister is wearing a pioneer dress :). If another Swea' Pea and Lilli dress suits your style better, it will also be made beautifully like this one is.I fully expected to love the Feltman Bros dresses the best, since they are so much more expensive at a hundred each. But this dress I honestly felt was nicer quality, had more special details, fit better, and was 100% cotton. I was surprised I liked it so much, since it looked somewhat plain and boring in the picture. It's a beautiful dress, don't let the price or the picture fool you.Lastly, don't disregard the bonnet! It's so incredibly adorable! It made the outfit, and we chose to use it instead of the white elastic head bow I planned on using. How many times in your daughter's life is she going to have a chance to wear a bonnet?! It makes it extra special, and looks so wonderfully old-fashioned :). Just snip the ribbon apart at the bottom so you can tie it properly under her chin.Enjoy your beautiful baby and her special day!

I bought this gown in an XS (0-3 mos.) for my now 3 week old daughter's baptism in a couple weeks. I was deliberating between this and another similar style gown, looking for something of good quality, cotton and simple (not overly fancy) with an heirloom/vintage look. After reading the positive reviews on this dress, I purchased it. I am very glad I did. As other buyers noted, the dress is of very good quality with added (undescribed) details that really make the dress much better than described by the manufacturer. It has pearl buttons on the back, is a nice cotton fabric and appears to run true to size (I haven't washed nor tried it on her yet). I do not plan to use the bonnet, but it is of equal quality as well. Plus, the seller shipped it fast, as it arrived 2 days after I bought it! I would definately recommend this to anyone looking for an affordable, quality, simple yet classy baptismal gown.

This gown was beautiful, simple, and well made. The 0-3 mos size was sadly too bog for my little girl at 8 lbs.

This is absolutely stunning! I ordered this the night before my baby's blessing. I wanted something more vintage looking, than what I saw in all the stores. Most of the dresses I saw online that I love are $400 and up.this came in less than 24 hours and it's amazing! Heavy materials beautiful details. It reminds me of a traditional British christening dress. I love it!!! This is gorgeous! My baby weighs a little less than 10lbs and there was room to grow in the 0-3 month size but it didn't overwhelm her. I adore how long the dress is. Longer than I had expected. The smocking is darling and it looks and feels expensive. I'd buy it again in a heart beat. 10 stars! Oh and it's made in the USA. I love that.

We ordered the 0-3 month size for my twins Who are four months old and 11 1/2 pounds each. The gowns fit them with some room to grow. Beautiful gowns and the fabric feels thick and high quality. I’m very pleased

Our daughter is on the smaller side for 3 months - 12.5 lbs & the 0-3 month fit her very well. Cozy on baby & it was surprisingly easy to hold her in it for being such a long gown! Very cute & coincidently another baby baptized the SAME DAY was wearing this same gown! Some stray strings on the edging is the only thing keeping this review from being 5 stars.

Great quality, arrived quickly, perfect for our special event and to frame for nursery decoration. I was torn between several dresses on Amazon. After reading all the reviews I chose this one and was not disappointed! I purchased the size 0 to 3 months and it fit only slightly big on my two week old baby who weighed 7 pounds. The tie on the back helped to tighten it. The fabric was thick enough that I didn't need a slip. We even used the bonnet and it was adorable!

This baptism gown is absolutely beautiful. It is just perfect. The cloth is clean and crisp. The detail ribboning adds such an elegant touch. It’s classic and timeless. The fit is perfect and love the long length. This gown will become a family heirloom. I can’t get over the quality. I am so in love with this gown.

This christening gown is of good quality, and fit very well. The smocking on the bodice and large bow tie in the back helped ensure a good fit. The cotton fabric which the gown is made from is soft but very thick. This gives the gown a rich feel and high quality look but it does also hold in heat so it may be best not to use this gown if you know the christening surroundings will be very warm or the ceremony very long. The bonnet was a bit too large for my daughter's head at her christening (2 months old) however it still looked adorable. She also hated the long gown touching her legs so we had to scrunch it up, but again, the whole thing looked adorable. Overall, I was very pleased and this offers good quality for a good price.
