Yellow, Navy & Pink | Ribbed Knit Top & Tulle Skirt | Silver Star Details | Ages 1 to 6 Years
A party dress that is actually warm enough for the British autumn. The Starlight Knit combines a soft ribbed long-sleeve top with a layered tulle skirt, held together at the waist with a silver glitter sequin belt that ties into a bow with silver star charms hanging from the ribbon tails. Matching silver glitter star appliques sit on the hem of the tulle skirt. The result is a dress that looks like it has been put together thoughtfully rather than assembled from a standard template.
At £19.99, in yellow, navy, and pink, for girls aged 1 to 6 years, this is the birthday party dress that also works for the October school run.
What This Dress Looks Like
The top half is a soft ribbed cotton-knit in whichever colour is selected. The ribbing runs vertically and gives the top a comfortable, slightly stretchy fit that pulls on easily without needing a zip or buttons. The neckline has a delicate frill or lettuce-edge finish that adds a small decorative detail at the collar and cuffs without making the top look overly dressed. The sleeves are full length and fitted, providing genuine warmth through the arms.
At the waist, a wide silver glitter sequin belt sits across the join between the knit top and the tulle skirt, tied into a bow at the front. Two ribbon tails hang down from the bow, each with a three-dimensional silver glitter star charm attached. The stars are padded and catch the light when the child moves. This belt and star combination is the most distinctive element of the dress and what makes it stand out in photographs compared to a plain two-piece knit-and-tulle style.
The skirt is a knee-length layered tulle over a cotton and tulle underlining, giving it good volume and a full, rounded shape that holds up during active wear. Additional silver glitter star appliques are stitched directly onto the tulle skirt at the hem, matching the star charms on the belt. The navy back-view photographs show how the star details are distributed across the skirt, visible at multiple points around the hem.
Colours Available
Each colour uses the same silver glitter belt, star charms, and star appliques throughout, so the sparkle detail reads equally well across all three. The yellow is a warm mustard tone rather than a bright primary yellow. The navy is a true deep navy. The pink is a soft, warm blush. Select your colour from the product options above.

Who This Dress Is Right For
Parents looking for a party dress that works in cooler weather: most party dresses for this age group are sleeveless, which means a cardigan or jacket is needed the moment the venue is cold or the party extends past the afternoon. This dress has long sleeves built in, so the child is warm, comfortable, and fully dressed without needing an extra layer. For more party dress ideas across all ages, see our roundup of beautiful party dresses for girls.
Birthday families with a star or space theme: the silver glitter stars on both the belt and the skirt hem make this dress a natural fit for a star-themed, space-themed, or galaxy-themed birthday party without needing any additional accessories or coordination. The stars are prominent enough to read clearly in birthday photographs.
Parents who want something versatile beyond a single occasion: the knit top and tulle skirt combination means this dress sits comfortably between smart casual and party wear. The navy version in particular can be worn for school events, family outings, and informal gatherings without looking out of place, in addition to parties and birthday celebrations.

Styling Tips
For birthday parties: the silver star charms and belt do the decorative work so accessories can stay very simple. A small silver or matching-colour hair clip or bow, plain white or matching colour tights, and simple ballet flats or trainers depending on the venue. The dress does not need any additional layering for indoor parties in autumn or spring.
For colder days: a plain denim jacket or a simple cardigan over the knit top adds a further layer without competing with the tulle skirt and stars. The knit bodice already provides warmth through the arms and chest, so this dress handles the transition between indoor and outdoor at mild autumn events better than most party dresses for this age group.
For colour pairing: the yellow works well with white tights and white shoes for spring occasions. The navy pairs naturally with white tights and navy or white shoes for a smarter look at family events. The pink version is the most versatile, working with white, nude, and pale pink accessories across all occasions.

Size Guide
The ribbed knit top has a small amount of stretch, so it is more forgiving than a woven bodice. If between sizes, the larger size is still recommended to allow comfortable room for movement. Our full girls size guide has additional reference. All measurements are in centimetres. Please allow plus or minus 3 cm as a normal variation.
| Age | Chest (cm) | Length (cm) | Sleeve (cm) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1–2 years | 58 | 53 | 31 |
| 2–3 years | 58 | 56 | 33 |
| 3–4 years | 60 | 59 | 35 |
| 4–5 years | 62 | 62 | 37 |
| 5–6 years | 64 | 65 | 39 |
Note: The chest measurement is the full circumference. The length is measured from shoulder to hem. The sleeve is measured from shoulder seam to cuff. 1 cm = 0.39 inch.

Frequently Asked Questions
The silver glitter on the star charms and appliques is embedded within the glitter fabric rather than loose surface glitter, so it should not shed significantly during normal wear. Some minimal transfer is possible with any glitter embellishment, particularly on the first wear. We would not recommend wearing this dress with a light-coloured fabric base layer that you are concerned about, but for most everyday party and occasion use, the stars hold their glitter well.
The belt ties in a bow at the front with ribbon tails. It is not permanently fixed at every point, so it can be untied and adjusted as needed. The belt is designed to sit at the waist join between the knit top and the tulle skirt and naturally stays in place when worn. If your child finds the bow uncomfortable, it can be retied at the side or back, though the front bow position is the most balanced for the hanging star charms.
The ribbed cotton-knit long sleeve top provides a good level of warmth through the arms, chest, and back, comparable to a light knit jumper. The tulle skirt offers little insulation around the legs, so tights are recommended for outdoor use in cooler temperatures. For indoor autumn events such as birthday parties, soft plays, and family gatherings, the dress is comfortable without needing an additional layer. For outdoor use in cold weather, a jacket or cardigan over the top extends its seasonal range.
The ribbed knit top has a small amount of natural stretch, which makes this dress slightly more forgiving than a woven bodice. That said, if between sizes we still recommend ordering the larger size, particularly for the length measurement, as the dress is worn as a single piece and the skirt length cannot be adjusted.
Yes. The smallest size (1 to 2 years) has a chest of 58 cm, a length of 53 cm, and a sleeve of 31 cm. The pull-on style with the small back clasp means it is easy to dress and undress a toddler. The stretchy knit top allows freedom of movement for early walkers and crawlers. The tulle skirt adds volume without restricting leg movement. We recommend measuring your child and checking against the size guide above rather than ordering by age alone, as one-year-olds vary considerably in size.
