"The tradition of dressing the Christ Child is a popular Mexican custom celebrated annually on February 2nd, during the Candlemas (Fiesta de la Candelaria) festivities. The practice involves dressing a figure of the Baby Jesus in new clothes to be blessed at church, marking the end of the Christmas season and the Presentation of Jesus at the Temple.
Origin: It originated in women's convents of New Spain (17th–19th centuries) and became widespread in Mexico in the mid-20th century, though it has roots in the liturgy of the Purification and pre-Hispanic traditions.
Responsibility: Traditionally, whoever finds the figurine of the Christ Child inside the Rosca de Reyes on January 6th becomes the godparent and takes on the commitment of dressing the child and paying for tamales.
Clothing: The Catholic Church recommends attire that reflects reverence (such as the Niño de las Palomas, Santo Niño de Atocha, or white/blue robes), though in popular practice everything from pajamas to a surgeon's outfit has been used."
