Many of our baptism dresses are made from delicate fabrics, so it's important to follow the care instructions carefully to maintain their quality. While some baby girl christening dresses may be machine-washable on a gentle cycle, others—especially those with intricate lace or embroidery—may require hand washing or professional dry cleaning. Always check the care label on the dress to ensure proper maintenance. To preserve the dress for future use or as a keepsake, we recommend storing it in a breathable garment bag after cleaning. This will protect the fabric from dust and fading, ensuring it stays in excellent condition for years to come.
