Little Doves

Once upon a time, Christening Gowns were made by hand, with love, an heirloom to treasure and pass down the family for future generations. Today such delicate workmanship and dedication to detail can still be found.... at Little Doves.

Little Doves' christening gowns are beautiful and exclusive. From her studio in rural Lincolnshire Linda Patrick lovingly designs beautiful handmade gowns, dresses, rompers and accessories. Endorsed by Vogue Magazine, every piece of christening wear is individually tailored and lovingly made to order. Over seven years she has established herself as one of the UK's most exciting christening gown designers and has a client list that ranges from Lord Compton of Castle Ashby to the BBC, having created the christening ensemble used in their recent costume drama “The Paradise.”
