Girls Lace Bodice and Tulle Skirt Party Dress in 8 Colours for Ages 1 to 14 Years, Perfect for Weddings, Flower Girls and Special Occasions
The combination of a lace bodice and a tulle skirt is consistently one of the most searched flower girl dress styles for weddings, and this Girls Lace and Tulle Party Dress delivers exactly that. A white floral lace bodice sits above a flowing multilayer tulle skirt in your choice of eight colours, creating a clean, elegant contrast that suits a wide range of wedding themes, party settings, and formal occasions.
The dress is sleeveless with wide shoulder straps and a round neckline at the front, with a distinctive crochet V-shaped open back that adds a delicate, considered detail visible in photographs taken from behind. The A-line silhouette falls to a tea or midi length, giving the dress the formality of an occasion gown without being floor-length, which makes it more practical for younger girls who need to move freely during a long ceremony and reception.
Available in eight colours and fitting girls from age 1 up to 14 years, this dress works as a flower girl outfit, a junior bridesmaid dress, a birthday party dress, and a school event dress. The consistent white lace bodice across all colour variants means the dress coordinates naturally with most wedding colour palettes simply by choosing the matching tulle skirt colour. If you need a full-length floor-grazing silhouette rather than midi length, take a look at our White Lace Top Flower Girl Dress, which is available in three colours for ages 4 to 14.
The 8 Colour Variants
Every variant uses the same white floral lace bodice. The colour choice determines the tulle skirt, which means you can match almost any wedding or party palette by selecting the appropriate skirt colour. The white lace bodice works as a neutral anchor across all eight options.
| Colour | Skirt Tone | Best Suited For |
|---|---|---|
| White and Burgundy | Deep wine red tulle | Autumn and winter weddings, rustic and barn venues, rich jewel-tone wedding palettes |
| Ivory Beige | Warm ivory tulle matching the bodice tone | Boho and garden weddings, vintage themes, ceremonies where an all-ivory look is preferred |
| Blush Pink | Soft blush pink tulle | Spring and summer weddings, romantic themes, feminine birthday parties |
| Lavender | Soft lilac purple tulle | Pastel wedding palettes, garden parties, spring celebrations |
| Mint | Cool mint green tulle | Fresh spring weddings, garden themes, seaside celebrations |
| Navy | Deep navy blue tulle | Classic formal weddings, nautical themes, winter celebrations, black tie events |
| Plum Red | Deep plum or dark red tulle | Dramatic winter weddings, Christmas events, festive celebrations |
| White | White tulle matching the bodice | All-white weddings, first communion, formal religious ceremonies |
Design Details Worth Knowing
The Lace Bodice
The bodice is constructed from white floral lace with an intricate scrolling botanical pattern worked across the entire front and back panels. The lace has good structure and holds its shape without feeling stiff or scratchy against the skin. The round neckline sits cleanly at the front without gaping or pulling, and the wide shoulder straps provide secure, comfortable support throughout a long day.
The back of the bodice features a crochet V-shaped open back, which is one of the most distinctive design details on this dress. The V-shape creates an elegant open panel between the shoulder straps that is visible in photographs taken from behind, adding visual interest without being impractical or revealing. The pull-on design means there is no zip or button fastening at the back, which makes dressing younger girls significantly easier, particularly at a busy ceremony venue.
The Tulle Skirt
The tulle skirt is cut to a tea or midi length, falling between the knee and the ankle depending on the age and height of the girl wearing it. The skirt is constructed from multiple layers of tulle with a multilayer underlining of mesh and cotton, which gives it considerable body and fullness without needing a separate petticoat. The A-line shape flows outward from the high waist join, creating a graceful silhouette that moves naturally and photographs beautifully from every angle.
The high waist join between the lace bodice and the tulle skirt is one of the most flattering details of the A-line silhouette, creating a long, elegant line below the waist that suits all body proportions across the age range. Because the join sits at the natural waist rather than at the hip, the skirt falls cleanly without bunching or pulling.
The Silhouette
The A-line shape is the most consistently flattering silhouette for flower girl dresses across all age groups. It provides enough structure to look formal without being restrictive, and the flared skirt shape gives children the freedom of movement they need during a ceremony that may last several hours. The midi length is also a practical choice: long enough to look elegant in photographs, but not so long that younger girls risk tripping on the hem during the ceremony.
Why the Lace and Tulle Combination Works for Weddings
The pairing of a lace bodice with a tulle skirt is one of the top-searched flower girl dress styles in the UK for 2026 weddings, and it has been consistently popular for good reason. Lace brings structure, texture, and a sense of heritage to the bodice, while tulle brings softness, movement, and volume to the skirt. Together they balance each other: the lace bodice reads as formal and considered, while the tulle skirt keeps the overall look soft and appropriate for a child.
The white lace bodice also solves a common wedding coordination problem. A fully coloured dress can be difficult to match exactly to other elements of the wedding party, but a dress with a white lace bodice and a coloured skirt is far more flexible. The white bodice coordinates naturally with a white bridal gown, while the skirt colour can be matched to the bridesmaids, the flowers, the table settings, or the overall colour palette of the day.

Who This Dress Is For
This dress is primarily designed for parents, brides, and wedding planners who need a flower girl or junior bridesmaid dress that coordinates with a specific wedding colour palette. The eight colour options and consistent white lace bodice make it one of the more flexible and practical choices for wedding parties, as the bodice always works with the bridal gown regardless of which skirt colour is chosen.
It also suits parents looking for a quality occasion dress for birthday parties, school events, and family celebrations. The wide age range from 1 to 14 years means it works from toddlers through to early teens, covering a span that most occasion dresses do not. The A-line shape and midi length are flattering across all ages in that range.
As a gift, the dress is well suited to godparents, grandparents, and family members buying for a birthday or wedding occasion. The eight colour options make personalisation easy, and the broad size range means there is a good chance of finding the right fit even when purchasing as a gift.
Size Guide
Dress length is measured from the top of the neckline to the hem.
