Where to find a non-trad boy Baptism outfit?

woolgathered · March 2010

I am having J Baptized at the end of April, and I want him to definitely wear all white, but I can't stand those cheap looking white suits that BRU and every other chain store sells. You know the ones, the polyesther ones in the plastic bags... ugh.

I'm kind of hoping I can find something made with natural fibers, too. Is that even possible? Anyone know of an Etsy seller who can do this?

In the end, I decided to make one with my mom. We decided to do a gown for my little boy - the traditional route. It's not very modern, and I'm getting a lot of scrunched noses, but I like the idea of him being able to pass it down to his children if he wants. I'm making it as masculine as I can get it and loving it!

We did all this research because we hated the plastic bag ones too.

i'm going this weekend to DS his baptism outfit. I know what I'm getting, but it is at a local baby boutique. I don't know the brand name, but I can pm you when i get it.

It is a "boy" gown, but it's a REALLY soft cotton (like the nice sleepers are made from). It's not super formal, but it's now too casual. It's got a little blue on it to. I know that really the best discrption, but if you want, i can take a pic of mine and pm it to you this weekend along with the brand.

I had mine made from my wedding gown. It was a gown, but she put a little bow tie on it - so cute!

With Easter coming up you might want to check some department stores...they will have tons of cute stuff in for little ones for easter...I know I have seen little white suits before. Or you might even be able to buy separates to get the look you want.
