At a Glance
| Style | Smocked rainbow fairy dress, pull-on |
| Ages / Sizes | 9 months to 3 years (4 sizes) |
| Colour | Pastel rainbow |
| Material | Chiffon blend, tulle |
| Best For | Birthdays, fancy dress, photo shoots |
| Fastening | None needed, elasticated pull-on |
| Care | Hand wash recommended; do not bleach |
This dress is built to be pulled straight on rather than fastened with a zip. The bodice is smocked and elasticated in a pastel rainbow gradient, with pearl-beaded straps that tie into a small bow at the neck, and there is nothing to fasten or unfasten when dressing a toddler.
A pair of embroidered rainbow wings sits at the back, and the knee-length tulle skirt is scattered with moon and star appliqués for a celestial theme. It is sized from 9 months to 3 years, with the stretchy bodice giving a bit more room to grow into than a fixed satin or sequin top would.
What Makes This Dress Special
- Smocked, elasticated bodice in a pastel rainbow gradient
- Pearl-beaded halter straps, tied with a small bow at the neck
- Embroidered rainbow wings attached at the back
- Moon and star appliqués scattered across the tulle skirt
- No buttons or zips – the whole dress pulls on over the head
- Knee-length skirt built for movement rather than standing still
- Mesh netting, satin, and cotton underlining for fullness
- Sized from 9 months to 3 years
The stretchy smocked bodice means there is more give in the fit than a structured satin top would have, which can make this dress last through more than one size before it is outgrown. For those wanting extra volume beyond the built-in layers, a tulle underskirt is available as a separate purchase.
Fabric and Quality
The bodice fabric is smocked into rows of stretchy gathers, dyed in a pastel rainbow gradient rather than sewn from separate coloured panels. The straps are threaded with small pearl beads and tie into a bow at the back of the neck, rather than fastening with a clasp or button.
The skirt is tulle in matching pastel tones, with moon and star shapes scattered across it in a mix of appliqué and sequin detail. Underneath, a mesh netting, satin, and cotton underlining shapes the skirt without any extra layers needed. For tulle and embroidered fabric care tips, the site’s guide to caring for kids’ dresses is a good read before the first wash.
Choosing the Right Fit and Style
From 9 months to 3 years, across four sizes, with bust and length measurements set out in the table below. Because the bodice is smocked and stretchy rather than fixed, it has more natural give than a fixed satin bodice, so it is a reasonable choice if you are buying slightly ahead of size.
This dress is a single rainbow design rather than a range of colourways, so there is no colour decision to make, only a size one. Accurate at-home measuring is covered in more depth in the baby size guide.
Perfect for These Occasions
The pull-on style and playful celestial theme make this a practical choice for younger children at dressier events. It suits:
- Birthday parties – particularly rainbow or fairy-themed celebrations
- Fancy dress and dress-up play – the wings and pull-on style suit a child who wants to get changed quickly and start playing
- Professional photo shoots – the rainbow gradient and celestial detailing both photograph well against plain backdrops

Comfort and Fit
The elasticated bodice and pull-on design mean there is no back closure to deal with, which is a real practical advantage for a toddler who dislikes standing still to be dressed. The pearl-strap halter tie sits at the back of the neck rather than digging into the shoulders.
Because the wings are attached to a soft, lightweight fabric rather than a stiffer structured base, they sit more loosely than a heavier costume wing would, which tends to be more comfortable for very young children who are not used to wearing anything at their back.

Complete the Look
A soft headband or small tiara finishes the look without adding anything a young toddler would need to fuss with. For a baby who isn’t yet a confident walker, soft-soled shoes are the more practical choice over a stiffer sandal.
Flower Headband
A flower headband for little flower girls suits the pastel rainbow theme without overwhelming it.
Baby Occasion Shoes
Soft leather occasion shoes work well for the younger sizes, keeping little feet comfortable.
Tulle Underskirt
The optional If a fuller silhouette is wanted, the tulle underskirt adds volume beyond what the built-in layers provide.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are the wings removable?
No. The wings are attached to the back of the dress rather than tied on separately, so they cannot be taken off without altering the garment.
Does this dress have a zip or buttons?
No. It pulls on over the head, with an elasticated smocked bodice and no fastenings at all, which makes dressing a wriggling toddler much quicker.
Does this dress need a petticoat underneath?
No. A combination of mesh netting, satin, and cotton underlining is built into the skirt, giving it shape on its own. A separate tulle underskirt is available if additional volume is wanted.
How much room does the smocked bodice give for growth?
The smocking allows for some genuine stretch, more than a fixed satin or sequin bodice would, though it is still worth choosing a size based on the current measurements in the size table rather than buying several sizes ahead.
How do I wash this dress?
Hand washing is recommended to protect the smocking and embroidered detail. Bleach isn’t recommended here, so dry flat or on a hanger rather than using a tumble dryer.
My daughter is between two sizes, which should I order?
Go up to the next size if in doubt. The smocked bodice has more natural give than a fixed one, so a slightly larger size will still fit comfortably as she grows.
Is this suitable for everyday dress-up play, or just special occasions?
It can work for both, though the delicate wings and tulle skirt are best kept for parties, photos, and supervised dress-up play rather than rough everyday wear.
