Christening Baptism Tradition

A child is a precious gift from God
And baptism is God's gift wrapping....


In the past 6 months or so , I have noticed that a lot of baby boys are being baptised in traditional silk christening gowns. Yes, long gowns ... it is so good to see young families are starting their own traditions of keepsake for generations to come.
This week , I had a pleasure of meeting one of the families in my showroom. Daddy loves the white embroidered unisex silk gown, mum on the other hand - an off white embroidered silk heirloom gown. We have dressed the baby in the gowns to see what suits the young man. Both are unique and both look absolutely stunning on him.... I suggested the parents think about it and come back in few days time to make their decision. They intend to baptise all their children in the same gown and than hand down the very beautiful gown for their grandchildren to be christened in. I will keep you posted as the the choice they make...... have a good weekend Dana

Just to let you know, the parents are coming back tonight. They agree on the white silk , but they asked if I could make that off white heirloom christening gown design they really like in the white silk for them....
