Should you use ages or measurements when ordering?
Most manufacturers use ages in their size labels.
All children vary and each manufacturer has a different idea of what size should fit an average child of that age.
This means that every age given is only approximate.
We recommend that you compare the measurements in the chart with the measurements of a garment your child is currently wearing and not the measurements of your child as this gives a direct comparison of fit.
The chest measurement is always the circumference and is usually the most important measurement.
Christening gowns / robes are meant to be longer than the baby so the length given is only for information.
The measurements shown in each chart are the actual garment measurements we have taken in the shop.
Sizes can vary slightly on each garment.
The ages given on this site are taken from the garment labels.
Usually the age given is for an age 'from' that size to fit up to the next size.
e.g.
3 month = 3/6 month (approx) if the next size made is a 6 month
6 month = 6/12 month (approx) if the next size made is a 12 month (please see below for 9 months)
12 month = 12/18 month (approx)
18 month = 18/24 month (approx)
2 year = 2/3 year (approx)
etc.
Some manufacturers also make a 9 month size in which case it would be:
6 month = 6/9 month (approx)
9 month = 9/12 month (approx)
We will always try our best to help you.
Email is our preferred method of contact as we receive these even when we are not at the shop.
