Colette Women's Dress Blackwatch Tartan with Royal Blue Hand Smocking
***We are hoping to get more SM dresses Mid December. If you are interested please email hello@smocklondon.com to be added to the waiting list! ***
The Colette Dress, for women of style and substance.
Glittering threads and classic Blackwatch tartan are a match made in heaven in this very special festive version of our bestselling Colette Dress. Named after the French writer famed for capturing the complexity of female existence in prose, this is a dress that celebrates femininity in every stitch and swish. The high frill neckline, set in sleeve and long line length give the dress its poise and elegance, while generous frills, deep hand smocked cuffs, puff sleeve and dainty fabric buttons give it unmistakeable feminine flair. Made from a super soft Blackwatch tartan brushed cotton and emblazoned with row upon row of glittering navy and gold zigzag trellis stitches , this hand smocked sensation represents everything Smock London loves best - exquisite fabrics, superlative stitching, generous frills and a delicious dose of festive spirit. The dress fastens with loop buttons on the front and ties with a detachable sash.

* Measurements are approximate. As a handmade item there will be natural variation across pieces.
Due the way our hand smocked pieces are pleated and sewn, our clothes offer a very versatile fit - there is natural stretch in all hand pleated smocks. For this reason we offer fewer, bridge sizes. This means more room for growth and less waste.
Below you will find measurements for our Girls' and Women's Sizes. Please note that as our pieces are made by hand, there will be natural variation between pieces so the measurements below are approximate. If you have any questions, do come and talk to us hello@smocklondon.com.
All measurements in centimetres.
Kids Sizing

Kid's Fit
In general our girl's fit is “Classic British” meaning dresses are designed to hit just below the knee and blouses sit at the lower waist level. At the beginning of the age range dresses will reach to mid calf; at the upper end of the range they will hit above the knee.
Most of our styles will comfortably fit your child beyond the age range specified: elasticated sleeves, tie straps and sashes allow you get as much as possible from each outfit. Better for you and better for the planet.
