Rachel Carson Girls Dress Candy Floss Gingham with Spearmint Hand Smocking
For little ladies of Wonder. Named after the grandmother of modern environmentalism and author of ‘Silent Spring’ the book which opened the world’s eyes to nature’s cause, comes this hand smocked summer time sensation.
The dress is made from acres of beautiful candy floss hued giant gingham cotton, gathered together with a deep garland of diamond smocking stitches in two tone spearmint blue threads that run all around the bodice. The sweeping silhouette is further enhanced by a frill tiered skirt and elegant frill straps adding a playful swing to your spring summer escapades. The dress features an elasticated bodice and fully adjustable buttoned straps for longer wear and a versatile fit across ages.

Our girl's fit is “Classic British” meaning dresses are designed to hit just below the knee. 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.
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.
All of our pieces are designed to be passed down generations when handled with care.
