The fail-safe formula to introduce formalwear into your little one’s wardrobe is to add bright colours and fun designs. Made for both smart occasions AND casual sun-soaked days out, what’s not to love about our bold button-down printed shirt options?
The Floral Dress
Ditsy florals? It must be summer! Lightweight and loose-fitting, with a pretty puff sleeve and bow accents, what more could you ask for from a kids’ summer dress? This seemingly simple kids wardrobe staple offers versatility in abundance. Smart occasion dressing — check! Summer picnic outfit — check! Kids’ summer holiday suitcase staples… check!
