Ivy Emerald is delighted to now include Anne Lehmann's Christening Gowns in our
exclusive collection
'All my gowns and accessories are made by me. Start to finish. The client knows they are getting a handmade gown to treasure and keep in the family.' - Anne Lehmann '09
Ivy Emerald was established in 2008 by Janice Schmitzer, a grandmother of 3, after she recognised a gap in the Christening Gown market.
'We had great difficulty in sourcing an heirloom quality boy’s gown for my grandson's Baptism. My 4 daughters and 2 granddaughters had all worn the same gown but we wanted something special for a little boy.'
Coupled with her love of babies and beautiful babywear, the concept of developing a range of designer heirloom Christening gowns and accessories, turned into the reality of Ivy Emerald - Designer Christening
Gowns & Heirloom Gifts.
Heirlooms are something to be really treasured. Heirlooms link generations in a deep and personal way. A grandmother’s Christening gown passed down through the generations can provide a richer understanding
of a family’s history.
'I have developed a range of exquisite Christening gowns, dresses, rompers and accessories that I believe are very special. I hope that mothers (and grandmothers) of today will enjoy my collection of gowns, and
baby accessories which are similar to those used for my own babies some 30 years ago, but still practical for mums of today.' Janice Schmitzer (Director – Ivy Emerald Designer Christening Gowns)
A Christening is a special celebration when a baby is taken for their baptism, and christened with their name. It is an important occasion – next to Weddings, Christenings are a lovely gathering for families family and close friends to attend.
Ivy Emerald recognises the importance of dressing your baby in exquisite dress – a Christening gown is as big a part of the traditional Christening ceremony as the bride’s dress is on her Wedding day.
- Price range for both baby boys and girls from $400
- Number of gowns in collection – 20
- Sizes 00, 0, 1, 2
