Most flower girl dresses work well for ages 2 to 6. This one is designed for the girls who have grown past that stage but still deserve something truly special. The Long Sleeve Lace Ball Gown Flower Girl Dress sits exactly in the right place. Sheer floral lace long sleeves, a sweetheart-lined bodice with lace applique detail, a satin waist bow, and a dramatically full tulle ball gown skirt combine to create a dress that feels genuinely special, the kind that gets remembered and photographed, and that older girls feel proud to wear.
Available in eight colours including champagne, lavender, mint green, blush pink, red, fuchsia, navy blue, and white, and in sizes from 5 to 16 years, this gown works for a wide range of weddings and occasions. It can also serve as a junior bridesmaid dress for older girls, but the full princess skirt and fairytale detailing are unmistakably flower girl in spirit. At just £29.99 it is exceptional value for a ball gown of this construction.

Design Details
Available Colours
Eight colours span formal, romantic, and vibrant wedding palettes. In each version, the lace sleeves and upper bodice lace are in a matching or tonal shade rather than white, creating a fully co-ordinated look throughout.
Perfect For
The long lace sleeves make this dress a standout choice for autumn, winter, and early spring weddings, where sleeveless or short-sleeved dresses require an additional jacket or shrug. This gown provides full coverage and warmth from the lace sleeves without needing anything over the top, keeping the flower girl looking polished and uncluttered throughout the ceremony.

How Does This Compare to the Diamante Version?
Both gowns share the same lace-and-tulle ball gown silhouette, sizes, and price. The differences come down to the waist and back design:
- This dress has a pre-formed satin bow at the front and back waist. The look is sweet, charming, and traditionally decorative.
- The diamante waist version has a row of faceted crystal stones and a clean back with no bow. The look is more polished and sophisticated.
- This bow version suits parents who want charm and a fairy-tale quality. The diamante version suits parents who want sparkle and understated elegance.
Who is This Dress For?
- Brides planning autumn, winter, or indoor weddings who want flower girls to look spectacular and stay warm without needing a jacket
- Parents of flower girls aged 5 to 14 who want a full princess ball gown rather than a chiffon or tulle style
- Families sourcing a First Communion dress in white with long sleeves and a suitably formal, modest silhouette
- Parents of older girls searching for a prom or school formal dress with genuine presence and a fairy-tale quality
- Gift buyers who want to give something genuinely special and memorable for a big occasion

- Do not machine wash, tumble dry, or wring the dress
- Do not bleach under any circumstances
- Gently press excess water out by rolling in a clean towel, then air dry hanging
- Iron the satin bodice lining only on a low setting, inside out with a pressing cloth

- Store hanging in a breathable garment bag to protect the lace and preserve the skirt volume
