Not sure if these are a bit over the top, but here and here or maybe this one. I personally really like the second one.

You could try browsing here if you find something you like, either get it from J lewis or order it by phone. I use fabricland, just phone them and quote the make of the pattern and the number, they deliver really fast.fabricland

Thanks for your ideas housewife...of the three prefer the last, although without collar...bit scared its a bit OTT..though its a christening...maybe its meant to??

do john lewis sell patterns....me and daughter may have to go shopping?!

Orchide, if you're interested I may still have the pattern from my ds's christening gown. I'll see if I can dig it out for you and also find a photo of the gown. I can easily get it to you before Friday if you want!

I also had it made from my wedding dress, glad to see I'm not the only one
