We all know what an important celebration Christening is. For the family and the baby, this special occasion will introduce religion and spirituality into the little one’s life. In many aspects, tradition still manages the whole ceremony of baptism, but in some ways, things have changed during the centuries.
Finding the right clothes for your baby boy can prove to be a challenge, especially since it depends on several things.
Back in the days, boys used to wear white christening gowns, the same as girls. In recent years, fashion has changed and boys can wear outfits formed by shirts, trousers, and little accessories, or keep the tradition and wear gowns.
It’s really up to the family which type of christening outfits for baby boy to choose.
But let’s talk a bit about what types of baby boy christening clothes you can find so the decision will be easier.
Christening gown
This type of clothing for baby boys is just like a dress with lace or some sort of embroidery. The traditional one is white and about 60-90 cm long as it needs to drape down a little.
The christening gown is often worn with several specific accessories, mainly a bonnet or a cap.
But why do boys wear this kind of clothing?
Well, up until 1900 boys and girls would wear the same thing until the age of 5. After that period, boys would dress in pants and shirts, while girls received dresses. We think that it made the nappy changing easier for the caretakers and the cost of the baby’s clothing was lower since the dress could be worn for a longer period.
Wearing gowns for baptism was nothing out of usual, and the tradition was kept for many, many years.
Also, it was common that the baby gown to be passed on from generation to generation.
Most christening gowns are unisex and can be used both for boys and girls.
If you are not sure where you can get a christening gown nowadays, check out Sophia’s Style selection for this type of clothing.
Christening Outfits
When we talk about baby christening outfits boys will look amazing in, we also talk about shirts, pants, coats, and bodysuits.
A cute white shirt with pants or shorts if the weather is good will be amazing for your baby boy. Pair it with cute baby shoes and bibs and you might have just the winning outfit.
Be careful when you choose the outfit to take into account that babies grow fast. A too-large outfit and the boy will look too goofy, a too-small one and it will not fit. So, when ordering the outfit be aware of the measurements.
Lucky for you, at Sophia’s Style we also have a measurements table and you can guide yourself when making the purchase.
See here what is our selection of baby christening outfits for boys.
These little outfits come with everything: cotton shirts and pants, bowties and ties, vests, and even cute little hats. The only thing you’ll need to buy is accessories.
Christening rompers
Another cute set of clothing that will accompany your son into this special day is our baby boys' christening rompers.
The best thing about rompers is that you will not have to worry about the shirt being untucked and staying all over the place.
They are made from cotton and designed to keep your baby comfortable during the ceremony and after.
Many of our rompers come with hats and are so cute you’ll want to buy more than one.
You can check them out here.
Christening coveralls
Coveralls look like rompers but are designed to cover whatever piece of clothing is beneath them, just like the name suggests.
For a christening, you can use the coverall to go over the bodysuit when the weather is cold.
Even if there are still other clothes beneath the coverall, we know that a baby’s skin is sensitive so most of our clothing is made of cotton.

Christening suits
Some boys will be baptized later on in their childhood and the parents can decide to put them into beautiful suits.
When choosing baby christening suits for boys, you should ask yourself if he’ll like them, if he’ll be comfortable in them, and also if you can manage to dress him and keep him in a suit for the ceremony.
If the answer to all those questions leans toward buying a suit, we recommend you consider our selection.
White suits, made of cotton, with shirts, pants, jackets, and vests, are exactly what you need if you decide on a modern-day christening.
You should see here our collection of christening suits for boys and choose the one that you like most.
Christening accessories
Of course, an attire cannot be whole without its accessories. And as it turns out, boys need their accessories as much as girls when it comes to such a special event as christening.
If they need a beautiful hat to go with whatever outfit you might choose, know there are plenty of options on our website. See here what are our top choices of baby boys christening hats.
Besides the hat, there’s also the need for interesting and fitted shoes and with them the baby boys christening socks.
Also don’t forget to take a bib, a blanket, burp cloths, and their favorite toy.
We can help you with many of that, except the baby boys' christening cakes. Somehow that is not our specialty.
How to choose an outfit?
There are some factors to take into account when choosing the baby boys’ christening clothes.
- The age – of the baby is under 6 months, you could use an outfit that gives you easy access to change his diaper. If the baby is older, then a suit, a romper or an outfit will go better since he’ll want to walk and crawl.
- The way of the Church – if the christening is being held in a traditional church, then a christening gown could be the better option. But if the church is a modern one, then a suit or whatever pleases you might work best as long as you still follow the rules regarding the color of the clothes.
- Personal taste – of course, this is one of the factors involved in choosing the outfit for the baby. You need to be comfortable with the choice and enjoy the entire ceremony and its meaning.
What to wear after the ceremony?
If the clothes your baby is wearing are comfortable enough, then they can also stay in them after the ceremony is done and the party begins. But some parents want to have a spare outfit for when the family gathers after the baptism.
If you plan on changing him, don’t forget to pack it with you along with his favorite toys, spare diapers, and whatever you think he’ll need.
In the end, all that matters is the meaning of this ceremony and what it entails to each and everyone present there.
