Christmas is such a magical time of year, especially when it’s your little one’s first (or second, or third!) festive season. Dressing your baby in a Christmas outfit makes those family moments extra special, while also helping to create traditions and memories you’ll look back on for years to come.
In this guide, we’ll share some of our favourite baby Christmas outfit ideas from our Christmas Collection. From cosy pyjamas to playful Santa outfits, we’ll help you dress your little one for every festive occasion.
Decorating the Christmas Tree Together
The festive season often begins with pulling out the decorations and setting up the tree. It’s such a special moment, and dressing your little one in a festive outfit makes it even more memorable.
- Our Festive Gingham Overalls or Christmas Letterbox Tee paired with leggings makes a simple but adorable tree-decorating look.
- Decorating tip: let your little ones pick out their own Christmas decorations for festive fun!
Visiting Santa
Meeting Santa is a milestone in many families’ Christmas traditions. It’s the perfect opportunity to dress your little one in something festive and photo-ready.
- Our Postie Santa Bodysuit paired with the Baby Santa Hat and Elf Booties makes for the cutest first Christmas outfits for a Santa photo.
- For toddlers, try the Christmas Postal Van Tee paired with our Festive Gingham Shorts or a Christmas Dress, which are festive yet comfortable options for sitting on Santa’s lap.
Family Photos & Matching Siblings
Family photos are treasured keepsakes, and Christmas is the perfect time to capture them. Many families also use these photos for Christmas cards or family newsletters, making festive outfits even more meaningful. Coordinating siblings in festive outfits makes those photos extra special.
- Purebaby’s Christmas Collection includes outfits for babies through to size 5, so siblings can match in prints while each wearing a style that suits them best.
- Styling Tip: Coordinate siblings with matching prints or colours - try a polo-style growsuit for babies, and a polo shirt and shorts or festive dress for toddlers.
Christmas Eve & Christmas Morning
As the excitement builds, Christmas Eve is all about getting cosy before the big day, while Christmas morning is filled with joy as little ones unwrap their gifts. Matching pyjamas make both occasions extra magical.
- Festive Christmas Pyjama Sets for babies and toddlers, featuring seasonal prints like Festive Friends and Christmas Wishes.
- Short Sleeve Zip Growsuits for younger babies that want to join in on the matching fun!
- Styling Tip: Layer pyjamas under a cosy cardigan or knitted jumper for added warmth on cooler Christmas mornings.
Christmas Day Celebrations
Christmas Day is filled with family gatherings, delicious food and festive cheer. Choosing an outfit that balances style with comfort ensures your little one enjoys the day as much as everyone else.
- For babies, opt for a comfortable yet dressy option like our Postie Santa Bodysuit or Heart Gingham Overall Bodysuit.
- Toddlers might enjoy a Christmas Tee and Shorts set for easy all-day wear, or a special Christmas Dress with delicate details like embroidery and appliqué.
- Styling Tip: Pair Christmas Day Outfits with sweet accessories such as hair clips, headbands or our My First Christmas Crown.
Christmas Outfits as Thoughtful Gifts
A Christmas outfit is more than just clothing, it’s a memory in the making.

For grandparents, godparents, or friends, choosing a Purebaby outfit means giving something practical, precious, and full of meaning. These pieces not only keep babies comfortable on the day, but they also live on in photos, scrapbooks, and family stories for years to come.
