A complete 4-piece baby girl first Christmas outfit in red, with a gold glitter script dress, headband, leg warmers and shoes.
A baby's first Christmas deserves an outfit that feels a little special, and this one leans into elegance rather than a busy print. Instead of a cartoon or festive graphic, the front of the dress reads simply "My First Christmas" in shimmering gold glitter script against a rich red background.
Like our other first Christmas sets, this one arrives as a complete four-piece outfit: dress, headband, leg warmers and shoes, all coordinated and ready to wear straight away. This is one of three first Christmas outfit sets we offer, each with its own take on the classic red and white festive look, so there is a version to suit different styles.
It works just as well for a quiet Christmas Day at home as it does for a party or a professional photoshoot, and it is soft enough for a baby to wear comfortably for hours at a time.
What's in the Set
Four coordinated pieces arrive together in one order, so there is nothing extra to source separately.
About This Gold Script Christmas Dress Set
The dress is a 2-in-1 design, so it looks like a full outfit but goes on as one easy piece. The bodysuit is red with long sleeves, and the only decoration on the front is the phrase "My First Christmas" written in gold glitter script across two lines. There is no snowman, tree or Santa graphic here, just clean lettering that reads more like a keepsake than a novelty print.
The skirt is a knee-length layer of red sequins over red tulle, giving it fullness and a bit of shimmer without adding bulk. Popper buttons at the bottom mean nappy changes are quick, without needing to undress your baby completely.
The headband follows the same red bow shape as our other first Christmas sets, with a rhinestone at the centre for a small amount of sparkle. It is made to stay in place rather than slip, which matters most during a long day of visitors and photos.
The leg warmers and shoes share the same red and white polka dot pattern, tying the whole outfit together. Both add a practical layer of warmth for the colder months as well as finishing the look neatly.
The set is made from a blend of cotton, sequin, tulle and polyester. It holds its shape well for photos while staying soft and breathable enough for extended wear.
A Timeless Red and Gold Christmas Look
Red and gold is one of the more understated colour pairings used at Christmas, often associated with a slightly more grown-up or boutique style rather than a playful cartoon print. The gold glitter catches the light in photos in a similar way to sequins, but reads as more refined against the solid red background.
This makes it a good option if you want your baby's outfit to look coordinated with a more traditional red and gold Christmas theme at home, including gold-toned decorations, ribbon and wrapping paper, rather than a brighter, multi-coloured scheme.

Perfect For
This set was designed with a few specific moments in mind.
Because the design is simpler than a full graphic print, it tends to photograph well in close-up shots where the gold script is clearly visible, as well as in wider family photos where a solid red reads clearly. It also suits a more formal or dressed-up Christmas gathering, where a plain, elegant script feels a touch more polished than a cartoon print.
It remains a practical gift choice too. Everything needed for the outfit is included in one order, so there is no need to track down matching accessories separately.
Baby Girl Christmas Outfit Size Chart
As with our other baby outfits, it is worth checking measurements rather than relying on age alone, since babies vary a great deal at these stages. Use the chart below alongside our Baby Clothes Size Guide and Baby Shoes Size Guide if you are unsure. If your baby is between sizes, sizing up is usually the safer choice, as the tutu skirt allows a little extra room and the leg warmers have stretch.
| Size | Dress Length (cm) | Chest / Bust (cm) | Pre-walker Length (cm) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0-3 Months | 36 | 44 | 11 |
| 3-6 Months | 39 | 46 | 12 |
| 6-12 Months | 42 | 48 | 13 |
| 12-18 Months | 45 | 50 | 13 |
Please allow plus or minus 3 cm tolerance due to manual measurement. Dress length is measured from neckline to hem. Colours may vary slightly depending on screen settings. 1 inch equals 2.54 cm.

Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is included in this set?
You get all four pieces in one order: the 2-in-1 gold script dress with sequin skirt, the red rhinestone headband, the polka dot leg warmers, and the matching polka dot pre-walker shoes with a bow. Nothing needs to be bought separately.
How does this compare to your other two first Christmas outfit sets?
All three sets follow the same four-piece format with a dress, headband, leg warmers and shoes. Little Star's is white and red with a snowman and Santa print, Tiny Tree's is all red with a Christmas tree and gold star print, and this set, Little Ruby's, is all red with plain gold glitter script rather than a graphic. The choice comes down to whether you prefer a two-tone look, a playful print, or a more minimal, elegant style.
How do I know which size to pick?
Check your baby's measurements against the size chart above rather than relying on age alone, as this varies a lot between babies. If your baby falls between two sizes, we recommend choosing the larger one, since the tutu skirt and leg warmers both allow a little extra room.
Is this outfit comfortable enough for a full day of wear?
Yes. The bodysuit sits directly against the skin and is made from a soft, breathable blend, while the sequin skirt is layered on the outside so it does not rub. The popper closure at the bottom means nappy changes do not require removing the entire outfit.
Is this a good gift for a baby's first Christmas?
Yes, it is a popular gift choice from grandparents, aunties and family friends, particularly for anyone who prefers a more understated design over a busy print. Everything arrives together, so there is no need to buy extra accessories separately.
How should this set be washed?
Hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent to protect the sequins and gold glitter script. Avoid bleach and tumble drying, and lay the set flat to dry. If ironing is needed, use a low heat and keep away from the sequin and glitter areas.
How long will delivery take?
UK delivery typically takes 3 to 10 working days, with free delivery on orders over £13. If you need it for a specific date, such as Christmas Day itself or a booked photoshoot, order with plenty of time to spare during the busy festive period.
