We are excited to announce the arrival of
Christening gowns and outfits at Maison de Belles Choses! We have been able to find some great options for this special occasion and found a need for them in San Francisco and online. We are carrying Christening attire from Bailey Boys, Sarah Louise, and
Isabel Garreton. We are also carrying wonderful, traditional coming home outfits from Petit Ami and
Feltman Brothers.
Sarah Louise created a very handsome
boy short romper with detail on the chest and pleated bottom with faux belt. This outfit is accompanied by an adorable cap for your little guy. The fabric is a nice polyester/cotton blend and this is a great option for your little guy on his big day.
Isabel Garreton is a wonderful company. Their mission is to employ underprivileged women to create their beautiful clothing and they have been doing so for over 20 years. We are fortunate to have found their lovely Christening gowns and to be able to offer them to you. We have a few options in the store but also have access to their entire collection online. We are carrying their
Tucks romper for the little guy. This is 100% cotton and features pintucks on the chest, a Peter pan collar and pleated pants. There is an adorable belt on back with two covered buttons and two covered buttons at the collar as well.
I love Christening gowns and for the true traditionalist, boys and girls may wear a gown on their baptism. Maison is carrying
Isabel Garreton's classic gown in white batiste. There is embroidered ivy around the collar, the sleeve and the high waist. This gown is fully lined with a beautiful tie bow in back and complimenting bonnet with the embroidery also.
For the smocking enthusiast, Isabel Garreton offers the
Pearls Gown in white batiste. The craftsmanship is noteworthy with the smocking on chest trimmed with pearls and embroidery detail on the gown. The sleeves each have a delicate ribbon and is finished with a beautiful tie bow in back and complimenting bonnet. The bonnet is exquisite with smocking and pearls.
My husband and I welcomed our daughter in 2006 and our little guy in 2009, and it was important to me to bring them home in a lovely "coming home" outfit. My daughter wore a gown bought for her by her Uncles. My son wore an adorable blue outfit from Sarah Louise (we sold out of it). We have some new options from Petit Ami and Feltman Brothers. Petit Ami offers a light blue convertible gown with embroidered train. This comes with a complimenting cap. Since it is a convertible gown, it will work in the car seat going home from the hospital. Feltman Brothers has been creating "coming home" outfits for many, many years. A great boy option we carry is a
White Batiste Bubble with Rocking Horse. I personally like the
blue collar and cuffs on the sleeve. For your little princess, Feltman Brothers has a lovely
Pink Handkerchief Dress with lace trimmed slip.
I hope you are as excited to find us as we were to find these beautiful Christening gowns and rompers and "coming home" outfits. Please email or call if you have any questions. We continue to have fun helping dress your children in adorable smocked clothing and now are excited to extend our offerings to include these special occasions.
Happy Shopping!
