This has to be the thumb-rule when finding the right outfit for a baby. Toddlers love to roam around and have fun at a party. You’ll expect your baby to be playful and cheerful on her birthday. However, sometimes parents can make the mistake of dressing their babies in uncomfortable clothes. Firstly, you must choose the softest, most comfy and lightweight fabric for the dress. You don’t want the baby to get tired of carrying the dress around or get irritated. The outfit should fit your baby perfectly. It should not be too tight as it can cause rashes and bother your baby, or too loose as it can look like a pillowcase on your child.

Check the Climate

You must dress your baby according to the climate. It would be foolish to make a summer-baby wear several layers of clothing. Similarly, a winter-baby must be dressed in warm clothes. Fortunately, we now have several weather-friendly fabrics that can be used to make the dress. Moreover, it’ll be significant to note whether you are planning the party indoors or outdoors.

Follow the Theme

A lot of parents wish to throw themed birthday parties. Hence, your baby girl’s first birthday dress should follow the party’s theme. Here are some suggested outfits for some popular themes:

  • Princess Party: A fluffy, ruffled pink or white princess dress with a golden crown. Add lots of lace and glitter into the dress.
  • Minnie Mouse Party: A black onesie or t-shirt with a red skirt with white polka dots. A matching Minnie mouse headpiece to go with it.
  • Mermaid Party: A purple, sleeveless cropped top with a shiny green skirt with a print resembling fish scales.
  • Boho Chic Party: A pastel-colored outfit with floral prints in multiple shades of pink, blue, green, and yellow. Add a headpiece prepared with colorful feathers.
  • Winter Wonderland Party: A white full-sleeved t-shirt with a tutu skirt in different shades of blue. Pair it up with leggings and a cute little hand-woven neck scarf.

Style the Outfit

If you are looking for a sweet and simple outfit, there’s nothing better than a customized onesie. You can add your baby girl’s name or personalize it with clever phrases like “I am ONE-derful”. This would a great choice if the weather is particularly hot and an elaborate dress seems too much to handle for the baby. The onesie can be complemented with a pair of pull-on stretch pants or a little skirt. Accessories can be added to glam the outfit up!

The sleeveless dress gets its charm from the massive ruffle going on around the waist which will make your baby girl look like a cute little hen! The big bow is the key feature of the dress and looks as charming as anything!

One of the most popular baby girl’s first birthday dress ideas is the Eyelet lace rompers. These are perfect to keep your baby cool and happy if you live in a warm region or are having a particularly hot summer. Available in many colors, these outfits can be chosen according to your baby’s complexion and color choice.

Even winter babies can be dressed up with fashionable rompers and t-shirts. Jumper ensemble, comfy and warm printed leggings, and super-smart baby coats can complete your baby girl’s birthday look.

Add A Bit of Glitz and Glamour

As a final suggestion, we would recommend playing with glitter, sequences, lace, and tulle to glam up the outfit. You can add embellishments to the seemingly simple tulle skirts and add a big glittery bow at the back of a classy lace frock.

Babies love colors and so should you. Plan a theme which can allow you to play with colors of the outfit, for example, you can design a rainbow-colored dress for a unicorn themed party.

Lastly, don’t forget to choose the perfect footwear, headpiece or headband, beaded bracelets, pearly necklaces, and little stick-on stars to accessorize your baby like a little diva!
