If you want a bit of nostalgia this Christmas this dress is perfect for your little one. Perhaps you wore a dress like this at Christmas when you were younger, how cute to dress your child in it?

How did we choose our 14 of the Best?
When testing and selecting the best Christmas outfits for kids and babies we considered sizes available, appearance, comfort and value.
Our 10 of the Best lists are compiled by qualified and experienced parenting journalists. They rely on a number of sources, including our independent reviews, testing undertaken during the MadeForMums Awards, and feedback from our home testing panel and Top Testers Club. Each year thousands of products are put through their paces by hundreds of parents across the country on behalf of MadeForMums, to ensure we’re bringing you honest and true reviews and recommendations.
Our list is not an ordered ranking from 1-10, instead it is a carefully selected group of tried-and-tested products, each of which we believe is best for a different situation or requirement. We don't just tell you what is best, we help you discover what is best for your family.
