Christening Gowns



Against all Heresies has a lovely post on christening gowns. Every new little child of God is a prince or princess, and should be dressed accordingly.

  5. Trying to do research. I have a christening ground that I am told is connected with Marie Antoinette. If so I'd like to give to a museum interested and that knows the history.
