Alternative Christmas Fancy Dress Ideas For Babies And Toddlers

Traditional Christmas Fancy Dress parties are very popular, but some of you out there may prefer a little variety away from the obvious Santa, Elves and Angels costumes. You will have to decide whether you’re going to stick to one theme or have a free-for-all. For the little ones in the family, there is an endless choice of costumes, some for fun, some pretty and others pretty hilarious. Here are a few ideas to look at.

INFANT TEDDY COSTUME – There’ll be plenty of aaaahs when you take your little Teddy out on Christmas Day in this outfit. Designed for babies’ comfort, these brown chenille fur and flannel jumpsuits have cream-coloured tummy and feet. They usually come with detachable hoods that have cute bear ears. This is perfect if it’s cold where you live, but, always remember when your baby wears this kind of costume, make sure they don’t overheat if you’re indoors for a while. This is a hugely popular style of costume.

THEMES - Think of Disney and the choice of Fancy Dress costume is endless for both boys and girls from princesses to princes, from Snow White to dwarves, from Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella to evil Witches. We have traditional cartoon characters such as Mickey Mouse and Scooby Doo, plus animals and superheroes in the style of Spiderman, Batman and Robin, X-men, Captain America, Iron Man and Power Rangers. Pirates, Ghouls, Monsters and Vampires are all high up the popularity list for those who don’t want traditional.

INFANT PUMPKIN PRINCESS COSTUME – She’ll be the ruler of the Pumpkin Patch in this little stunner. A beautiful vegetable costume often used for Halloween, this is just too gorgeous to wear only once a year. The dress is made up of a frilly, puffy skirt in a vivid orange colour with a green bodice section imitating the leaves.  Have some sort of matching headband and your little sweetheart will take centre stage wherever you are.

INFANT BUZZY BEE COSTUME – Amid the fabulously fun costumes for both boys and girls, the Bumble Bee is a winner with the little ones. For the girls, it’s all pretty and cute with typical black and yellow striped dress. For the toddler costumes, you will find most of these are elasticised around the chest for ease and comfort. Adorable detachable wings should fit on the back. Adding black tights and little ballet-style pumps creates a great finishing touch as your little bee buzzes around everyone’s feet all night. She’ll be an absolute honey all night.

INFANT PRETTY PRINCESS WITCH COSTUME – It may be Christmas, but your darling little girl will still look a smasher in her Princess Witch costume. A wide variety of designs and colours are available with this outfit so choose one that matches her character. Most have mock corset fronts with coloured criss-cross ribbon as decoration. Long sleeves tend to be the norm with full tiered skirts. You will find many designs beautifully decorated with glittery thread and/or sequins. Make sure you have a tall witch’s hat for the right effect. Black leggings and ballet-style shoes make this a gorgeous alternative. Your little girl will have everyone enchanted.

TODDLER LITTLE DEVIL – If you have a boy and girl in the family, then an ideal match to the Princess Witch could be the Little Devil. For the baby boy and toddler, these typically come as red all-in-one bodysuits with a matching removable hood, sporting cute attached black horns, and detachable black wings. Little black booties would be a devilishly stylish final touch.

TODDLER ANIMAL COSTUMES – Just a few of the many hundreds to choose from that are cute, cuddly and funny. The toddler Frog will have youngsters on the hop, while Scaredy Bats see boys and girls in full flight for a real fright night. T-Rex could be a roaring success, and infant Lobster and Lil Man-Eating Shark are all set to make a big splash.
