Invited to a christening? See what to wear!

Are you invited to a christening and don't know what to wear? Check out suggestions for every style!

We have prepared 10 suggestions that will inspire you and manage to lead you to such an occasion with a very beautiful style, carefreeness, and a small dose of childishness that is somehow "required" at the time and the occasion!

Childlike mood

The invitation, the time and the place give you the freedom to dress with a touch of childlike innocence. In other words, choose pastel shades or patterns with cheerful designs for your main look. Dresses in colors such as lilac, light blue, pink, yellow, and mint green will give your outfit a beautiful and carefree feel and will match the occasion perfectly.

The Joy of Pants

Baptism is ideal for making an appearance with high-waisted airy pants and pairing them with a shirt tied high at the waist or a crop top. Combined with discreet jewelry and comfortable heeled sandals, they will create a very beautiful outfit.

The Long Skirt

Choosing a long, impressive skirt, either solid-colored or patterned, is super for creating the base for an impressive baptism look. Worn together with a shirt on top or a simple silk top in a neutral shade along with a pair of impressive earrings or bracelets on the hand will surely draw attention to you.

Full of Color

A dress in bright green, mustard, or orange color combined with subtle jewelry and flat sandals, or a pair of fuchsia pants with an orange or turquoise top worn with mules and a small handbag match perfectly together. The vibrant colors are very beautiful for the specific occasion and you can experiment with them without a second thought.

Crop top

The tops that end high at the waist have been having a big moment in the last two years. They are such smart clothing items that they manage to flatter every body type when combined correctly. They are very suitable for a baptism because they can be beautifully and properly paired with anything high-waisted we have in our closet, creating a look with beautiful curves without looking contrived.

The White Shirt

Worn with linen pants in sand shades, with a midi skirt in earthy colors, with a long skirt with pastel patterns, or even with an airy bermuda with a thin belt at the waist, it is the ultimate garment for such an occasion. The white shirt is timeless, elegant, and perfectly adapts to whatever you choose to pair it with. Remember that the white shirt loves jewelry and can highlight anything from the most impressive necklace to the most discreet pairs of earrings you choose to wear.

The Vest

You must have noticed that the sleeveless vest has made an incredible comeback, and its versatility is such that it fits comfortably even for a morning baptism invitation. The truth is that in such an occasion, the longer version of the vest is more suitable if combined with matching color pants or skirt. Leather flat sandals or a pair of low-heeled mules will complete the outfit with absolute success.

The long dress

A summer baptism is ideal for investing in a long, airy dress. With subtle cut outs, in bold or pastel colors, with thin straps or elbow-length sleeves, they steal the show and give you unique freedom of movement. The dress for baptism is completed with flat sandals and a layering of necklaces at the neck or delicate bracelets, creating the perfect combo!

The Long Bermuda Shorts

Linen Bermuda shorts that stop at knee height can look very appropriate and beautiful for a morning baptism. If you pair them with a crisp shirt tucked in and a thin belt or a short sleeveless vest and mules underneath with a small, sweet bag, it will allow you to make a very unique fashion statement. Don't be afraid to adopt such a look if you are a fan of Bermuda shorts.

The short dress

If you go for shades of white, beige, brown, terracotta, or mustard, don't hesitate to choose a dress with a length above the knee for a baptism. With a subtle open neckline, slightly puffed sleeves, and discreet ruffles or a flowy line at the bottom of the dress, you will create a very beautiful look. Low heels or flat sandals will perfectly complement this outfit.
