Why Parents Keep Coming Back to This Dress
Kids grow fast and they don’t sit still, so a dress needs to keep up. This one has a short sleeve, round neckline top and a full, flowing skirt that gives room to move without feeling tight anywhere.
The two side pockets are a genuine hit with most girls we hear from. They’re deep enough for a small toy, a hair clip, a shell from the beach or whatever else gets picked up along the way, so there’s less need to hand things over to mum or dad.
Because it’s a plain, single colour dress, it’s also easy to style. Add trainers for a casual day out, sandals for summer, or a cardigan when the weather turns cooler. It layers well too, which makes it a dress that earns its place in the wardrobe well beyond one season.

Styling Tips
For everyday wear, pair the dress with trainers and a denim jacket for cooler mornings. For summer days out, sandals and a sun hat keep the look light and practical. If you’re dressing for a party or family gathering, a pair of simple flats and a light cardigan will smarten the outfit up without losing the comfort.
Size Guide
This dress is available in seven age ranges, from 1-2 years up to 7-8 years. To get the best fit, measure your daughter’s chest and compare it against the table below rather than going by age alone, since children of the same age can vary in size.
| Age | Chest (cm) | Length (cm) |
|---|---|---|
| 1-2 years | 56 | 73 |
| 2-3 years | 60 | 76 |
| 3-4 years | 64 | 82 |
| 4-5 years | 68 | 88 |
| 5-6 years | 72 | 94 |
| 6-7 years | 78 | 102 |
| 7-8 years | 80 | 108 |
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, take a look at our girls size guide and our guide on how to measure a dress.
Perfect For
This dress works hard across the calendar. It’s relaxed enough for everyday school pickups and playdates, but smart enough for birthdays, family gatherings and days out. Pair it with sandals for a summer holiday or trainers for a more casual look.
