A Lace Appliqué Party Dress with Back Bow. Knee Length, Ages 3 to 14.
This girls lace appliqué bow back party dress features a floral lace bodice with delicate embroidered appliqués that trail down into the skirt, rather than stopping at the waist. A large decorative bow sits at the back, and the knee length tulle skirt carries a subtle sparkle from woven-in glitter detailing. It fastens with a concealed back zip.
Soft lining runs throughout for comfort, and it comes in 5 colours, from soft pastels to classic white.

Why This Dress Stands Out
The lace here isn’t confined to the bodice. The embroidered appliqués trail down from the waist into the top of the skirt, so the floral detail feels like part of the whole dress rather than a separate panel stitched above a plain skirt.
The back bow is the other defining feature. It sits as a single, structured statement piece rather than sharing attention with a second bow at the front, which keeps the front of the dress clean and lets the lace appliqué do the talking from that angle.
Because it’s knee length with a concealed zip rather than a pull-on design, it suits a slightly more active flower girl or party guest who needs to move freely, while still fastening securely enough to stay put through a full day of photos and celebrations.

Available Colours
This dress comes in 5 colours, each suited to slightly different occasions and seasons.
- Blush Pink: a soft, muted pink with a romantic feel, well suited to spring and summer weddings and gentle birthday party themes.
- Pink: a brighter, more saturated pink than blush pink, for a bolder, more playful look.
- Light Blue: a pale, airy blue that photographs well in natural daylight and suits spring and summer events.
- White: a classic, clean shade suited to communion, christenings and all-white wedding themes.
- Champagne: a warm, neutral gold-beige tone that pairs easily with most colour schemes and works well across seasons.
Colours may appear very slightly different on screen compared to in person, due to lighting and display settings.
Styling Tips
Simple shoes and a small hair accessory tend to work best, since the lace appliqué and back bow already carry plenty of detail on their own. For cooler weather or outdoor ceremonies, our flower girl lace bolero jacket layers neatly over the shoulders without covering the lace bodice.
Size Guide
This dress is available in seven sizes, covering ages 3 to 14. As with any fitted occasion dress, it’s worth measuring your daughter and comparing against the chart below rather than relying on age alone.
| Age | Chest (cm) | Waist (cm) | Skirt Length (cm) | Shoulder Width (cm) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3-4 years | 60 | 57 | 60 | 26 |
| 4-5 years | 63 | 60 | 65 | 27.5 |
| 5-6 years | 66 | 63 | 70 | 29 |
| 7-8 years | 70 | 66 | 75 | 30.5 |
| 9-10 years | 74 | 70 | 80 | 32 |
| 11-12 years | 78 | 74 | 85 | 33.5 |
| 13-14 years | 82 | 78 | 90 | 35 |
1cm = 0.39 inches. Please allow a margin of around 3cm either way, since all measurements are taken by hand. For more detail on getting the right fit, see our girls size guide.
Perfect For
This dress suits flower girls, junior bridesmaids, weddings, birthday parties, communion, family photos, pageants, and parties throughout the year, including Christmas and Easter celebrations.
Weddings and flower girl duties: the lace appliqué and back bow give a coordinated, formal look without the weight of a floor length gown.
Communion and family photographs: the White and Champagne colourways suit these more traditional, photo-focused occasions well.
Birthdays and parties: the Blush Pink and Pink shades work well for celebratory, playful occasions.
If your daughter has been asked to be a flower girl or junior bridesmaid, our ultimate guide to flower girl dresses and our piece on the difference between a bridesmaid and a junior bridesmaid are worth a read while you plan the outfit.
Fabric and Care
This dress is made from a polyester, lace, tulle and mesh blend, with a satin ribbon sash forming the back bow. Hand wash is recommended, and please avoid bleach to keep the lace and glitter detailing looking their best.
If ironing is needed, use a cool iron on the reverse side only, and avoid ironing directly over the lace appliqué or the tulle skirt. Hanging the dress rather than folding it helps the skirt keep its shape between wears. For more general guidance, see our tips on how to care for lace material and how to care for tulle.
Frequently Asked Questions
What age range does this dress fit?
It’s available in seven sizes covering ages 3 to 14 years. Check the size table above and compare it to your daughter’s measurements for the best fit.
How is this different from your Lace and Tulle Flower Girl Dress?
This one fastens with a concealed back zip, has a large bow at the back, and the lace appliqué trails down into the skirt rather than stopping at the waist. Our Girls Lace and Tulle Flower Girl Dress uses a pull-on style with a crochet V-shaped open back and no zip, and the lace stays within the bodice panel, with a variable tea or midi length skirt rather than a fixed knee length.
How is this different from your Flower Detail Tulle Party Dress?
This one has a single bow at the back only, and uses flat embroidered lace appliqué rather than raised 3D flowers. Our Girls Flower Detail Tulle Party Dress has a structured satin bow at the front waist as well as a second bow at the back, with dimensional 3D flower appliqué across the bodice and a matching flower trim at the hem.
What is the dress made from?
It’s made from a polyester, lace, tulle and mesh blend, with a satin ribbon sash forming the bow at the back.
Does this dress have a zip?
Yes. It fastens with a concealed back zip, which keeps the front of the dress clean and makes it easy to get on and off.
Is the back bow removable or adjustable?
The bow is sewn into the back of the dress as part of the design rather than being a separate, detachable accessory, so it isn’t intended to be removed or repositioned.
Can this dress be worn for occasions beyond weddings?
Yes. It suits birthdays, communion, family photos, pageants, Christmas and Easter celebrations, as well as weddings and flower girl duties.
How should I wash this dress?
Hand wash is recommended, and please avoid bleach. If ironing is needed, use a cool iron on the reverse side only and avoid pressing directly over the lace or tulle.
Does it fit true to size?
