Sequin butterfly embroidery, a layered tulle skirt and a rhinestone flower detail make this the dress little girls ask to wear again and again
Some dresses just make little girls stop and stare. This pink butterfly tulle dress is one of them. With sparkling sequin butterflies across the bodice, a soft layered tulle skirt that twirls beautifully, and a sweet rhinestone flower at the waist, it has the kind of detail that turns a birthday outfit into a memory.
At just £6.99 in our clearance sale, this is a dress that looks far more expensive than it costs. Sizes run from 2 to 8 years, so whether you are shopping for a birthday, a summer party, a family occasion or simply a dress your daughter will refuse to take off, this one is hard to beat at this price. Once these are gone, they are gone, so grab her size while it is still available.
What Makes This Dress Special
The bodice is made from soft cotton jersey with two sequin butterfly motifs stitched directly onto the fabric. The butterflies catch the light as she moves, giving the dress a sparkle that photographs beautifully. Small scattered sequin dots sit around the butterflies for extra detail, and a tulle trim edges the short sleeves to finish the look.
At the waist, the dress has a gentle gathered join between the bodice and skirt. A chiffon flower brooch with a faceted rhinestone centre is attached at the side, adding a delicate, grown-up touch that girls absolutely love. It is securely stitched in place and will not pull off during wear or washing.
The skirt is where the wow factor really comes from. It is built with two layers of soft tulle over a lining, creating a full, floaty silhouette that holds its shape without being stiff or scratchy. The hemline is knee length, keeping it practical for active little girls who need to run, dance and play. For the full effect at parties, you can always layer it over our flower girl hoop underskirt for extra volume.
This dress pairs well with a simple white or silver shoe. If you are putting together a complete outfit, take a look at our range of girls shoes for matching options.

Size Chart
Children’s clothing sizes can vary quite a bit between brands. Always measure your child before ordering rather than going purely by age. Use a soft tape measure and compare your child’s chest, waist and height to the chart below. If she is between sizes, we recommend sizing up for a more comfortable fit with room to grow. Our full girls size guide also includes a step-by-step measuring guide if you need help.

How to Care for This Dress
Hand wash in cool water and lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight to keep the colours bright. Do not bleach or tumble dry. The sequin embroidery and flower brooch will last longer with gentle hand washing rather than machine cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the tulle skirt scratchy on bare legs?
No. The tulle used in this dress is a soft, lightweight variety with a lining underneath. The lining sits between the tulle and your child’s skin, so there is no direct contact between the netting and bare legs. Most girls find it comfortable to wear for a full day without any irritation.
Is this dress suitable as a birthday gift?
It makes a lovely birthday gift, especially at the current sale price. The butterfly theme is very popular with girls aged 2 to 8, and the pink colour and sparkly details make it feel genuinely special to receive. If you want to put together a complete birthday outfit, browse our birthday dress collection for more ideas.
Will the sequins come off in the wash?
The sequin butterfly embroidery is stitched into the fabric rather than glued on, so it is more durable than loose sequin decorations. Hand washing in cool water is strongly recommended to keep the embroidery in the best condition. Avoid wringing the fabric or using a spin cycle.
Can this dress be worn as a flower girl dress?
Yes, it works well for this role. The full tulle skirt, butterfly detail and rhinestone flower accent give it an occasion-worthy look at a fraction of the price of a dedicated flower girl dress. For a fuller skirt on the day, you can pair it with one of our girls underskirts underneath.
My daughter is between two sizes. Which should I choose?
Always size up when in doubt. Children grow quickly, and the extra room in a larger size means more wear out of the dress over time. The gathered waist and soft cotton bodice also give a little natural flexibility in the fit. Check the chest and waist measurements in the size chart above, as these are more reliable than age as a guide.
Is this dress suitable for summer?
Yes. The short sleeves and lightweight tulle skirt make it a great summer dress. The cotton bodice breathes well in warm weather, and the open skirt construction keeps air moving. It works just as well for indoor events and parties during cooler months if layered over a long-sleeved top or paired with a light cardigan.
Is this a clearance item? Will it be restocked?
Yes, this dress is part of our clearance sale at the reduced price of £6.99. Stock is limited and will not be replenished once sold out, so we recommend ordering sooner rather than later if you have your eye on a particular size.
