Baby Girls Christening Gowns

Baby Girls Christening Gowns & Baptism Dresses

Your baby's christening is one of life's most precious milestones—a moment of joy, tradition, and pure love that deserves to be celebrated in perfect comfort and timeless elegance.

At Lucy's, we've spent over 30 years creating christening gowns that honour this sacred occasion while keeping your little one comfortable, safe, and absolutely beautiful. Our baby girls christening gowns are crafted with the softest cottons, delicate silks, and gentle laces that feel like a whisper against your baby's sensitive skin.

Designed for Baby's Comfort & Safety First

Every christening gown in our collection prioritises your baby's wellbeing. We use breathable, hypoallergenic fabrics that regulate temperature naturally—keeping your little one cool during warm ceremonies and cosy when the weather turns. Our gowns feature soft seams that won't irritate delicate skin, gentle closures for easy dressing and nappy changes, lightweight fabrics that allow natural movement, non-restrictive designs that let babies rest peacefully, and quality materials tested for baby safety standards.

Heirloom Quality That Lasts Generations

Our christening gowns aren't just for one day—they're designed to become treasured family heirlooms. Each gown features exquisite hand-embroidery, French seaming, and construction techniques that ensure they'll be cherished for generations. Parents return to us years later, telling stories of siblings, cousins, and even future grandchildren wearing the same Lucy's gown.

Size & Age Guidance

Our baby christening gowns are available for newborns through 12 months. Most gowns are generously sized to accommodate newborn-3 months (perfect for early christenings), 3-6 months (our most popular size range), and 6-12 months (ideal for older babies).
