A convertible christening or baptism gown as the name suggest is a type of gown that has the ability to convert, usually to a baptism romper suit, In fact in a lot of cases it is really a long sleeved and long leg romper with an attachable dress or full button on gown. Many parents still want to baptize or christen their baby boy in more of a traditional looking gown but perhaps do not want their son wearing the "dress" like clothing for the full day. A convertible baptism romper is an ideal choice for parents who want the ability to quickly change the appearance of their son perhaps after the ceremony or before or after any photographs have been taken.
Often one parent (usually the father) is keener for their son to wear a traditional gown and to have more of a modern gender neutral look, a convertible christening or convertible baptism romper suit is therefore the ideal compromise.
Convertible gowns are also available for baby girls, they are much more floral and full of lace and embroidery, and they are also used as a way of conveniently converting the clothing from a full gown to a romper suite.
The choice of materials is as wide as for a traditional gown, like a traditional gown silk and cotton are common materials, but unlike the girl version there is little to no embroidery or other floral decorations.
Romper suits offer freedom and comfort for your baby boy that is very important for a peaceful baptism or christening day. There are baptism romper suits available without the convertible gown option which gives the simplicity and elegance that the ceremony deserves.
