Black tie wedding - how to dress 2 year old DS?

4 replies

SebbysMum · 02/12/2009 21:56

Have spent hours online trying to find something for my son to wear to a black tie wedding. He is turning 2 the day before the event and he is quite a small two year old. I have failed to find a single white shirt in his size. Any ideas on what would work instead? Or any idea where I can get a white shirt and/or black cardigan?

Do you think it is inappropriate for him to wear something entirely different?

I think for a two year old a white grandad collar shirt, black trousers, and a waistcoat would be fine - Monsoon have all of those, and it's 25% off atm

I agree with the idea of a waistcoat - have just bought my 2 DS's one for Christmas Day on ebay.

how about this?

And there's a good selection age 18 months too if the size 2 is too big.

When we were invited to a black tie wedding I got ds (then 10 months) a greeny-blue velvet suit with a mandarin collar and grandad shirt in pale blue all from Monsoon. The suit matched his eyes and it was in the sale . He looked adorable. It was a spring wedding. At a summer wedding a few months later he wore a linen suit also from Monsoon.
