The sacrament of confirmation is a significant milestone in your child’s spiritual journey. As parents, you want every aspect of this event to be memorable and meaningful — including your child’s outfit. At New Generations in Dublin, we understand the importance of adding a personal touch to your child’s confirmation attire.
Read on for our expert tips on making sure your child feels comfortable, confident, and extra special wearing their confirmation outfit.
Choosing the perfect confirmation dress or suit
The first step to adding a personal touch is choosing the right confirmation dress or suit for your child. We boast a remarkable collection of children’s occasionwear, including elegant confirmation dresses and stylish suits.
When helping your child make their decision, make sure you take their preferences and style into account. Do they lean towards a classic look or something more modern? See how your child feels as they try different things out. This will help you find a confirmation outfit that resonates with their personality.
Customised accessories
Accessories play a vital role in enhancing your child’s outfit. Whether it’s a dainty hairpiece or a charming tie, accessories can reflect your child’s tastes and interests. We have an array of children’s accessories available to try on
Why not match a confirmation dress with a cute pair of decorative gloves in the same shade? Alternatively, you could let your child choose a pocket square in their favourite colour or pattern.
These bespoke touches will not only make your child feel special but also create a cohesive look that complements the full outfit.
Embroidery and monogramming
Adding a monogram or embroidery to your child’s outfit is a wonderful way to make it uniquely theirs. You can incorporate their initials, a meaningful date — such as the date of their confirmation — or even a short message for them to look back on fondly in the future.
Imagine your child proudly displaying their confirmation outfit adorned with a personal touch that holds sentimental value. What’s more is that it can serve as a beautiful keepsake for years to come.
Colour and fabric choices
The choice of colours and fabrics can greatly impact the overall look of your child’s confirmation outfit. Consider opting for shades that resonate with your child’s personality or have colours that have a special significance in your family.
We’re proud to stock an impressive range of colours and fabrics, giving you the opportunity to create an ensemble that truly stands out. Whether your daughter wants a sleek satin dress in a neutral shade or something bold made from tulle, there are plenty of options to explore.
The same goes for our confirmation suit collection — will your son choose a traditional herringbone 4-piece, an elegant black tailcoat, or a striking 5-piece ensemble in electric blue?
Tailoring for the perfect fit
An impeccable fit is the hallmark of an exceptional outfit. A well-fitted outfit not only exudes confidence but also showcases the care and attention you’ve invested in making the occasion memorable. With this in mind, it’s definitely worth taking the time to set up in-person fittings and make adjustments where necessary.
