Yes they usually wear a white dress, you will also need a white shawl for the Godmother to wrap her/him in.

Both boys and girls often wear a christening gown (a unisex garment, as opposed to a dress). It's basically just a fancy, white nightshirt-looking thingy.

Baby boys and girls wear what is known as a christening gown when they are dedicated to the lord.

Yes. A white gown. When my brother and I were baptized and christened, we wore them back in the day...

Its usual to dress them in white, but whether that is a fancy traditional gown or something more baby friendly is up to you!

Traditionally, yes, christening dresses - boys and girls alike.
But it isn't mandatory.
