I voted for 2.... but I also like 4....



Have you tried the atias flea market??

I know you are in nassau... but it might be worth the trip...

Much cheaper prices... and nice stuff... (believe it or not)

I went everywhere before finding Ryans there....

Re: Ok -- another christening gown question -- with pics and Poll!

I went to TriCounty flea market in Levittown which is also a big place like Attias and I didn't like ANYTHING that they had there. Everything was satin and had beading and I just don't want any of that. It's going to be in July and so itll be so hot for that plus it's just not my style. They did have good prices, most were around $60-70 but I didn't see anything I liked.

My sister is also getting her baby baptised in August and she was looking at boutiques in Sayville and all of the cotton and linen ones were like $250+ so really for similar dresses at this place they are half the price.

I voted for #2 - Annalise but all are beautiful.

I thought #1 was too thin - if you look at the picture, her skin is seen through the material.

I like the sheerness -- it is Linen so it is supposed to be sheer -- and comes with a slip so really the only "sheer" part will be the arms.

Here is a link to more pics

The christening is on July 9th which is why I tried to pick cotton gowns -- many of them are of a very lightweight cotton lawn matterial or linen. The gown is for my daughter, Emily.

We've pretty much narrowed it down to the abigail and one other gown. I love the abigail because it comes with so much -- booties, a bib, the bonnet, the slip ... most gowns just come with the bonnet and the slip if it's a gown that requires one --- yet the price is cheaper then some that come without those accessories...right now I think it's between these two gowns, I just wish that the other gown came with tons of pictures so I can really make a decision:

I like the one with the baby in the photo. That is beautiful and just perfect for a July date. Really elegant and lovely.
