Thatcher Dress Loveheart Cotton Lawn with My Funny Little Valentine Hand Smocking
For iron ladies.... in love!
Love bug season is here! Brighten your days with this special edition of our Margaret Thatcher Dress. Inspired by its namesake’s penchant for structured tailoring and classic lines, this is a smocked frock for girls with grit. The double-breasted front and vibrant scarlet trim echoing masculine tailoring sets the stratospheric tone, while an abundance of generous details - Love heart cotton lawn, red piping and buttons and Valentine hand smocking - will have her beguiling her audiences as she charges ahead of them. The dress features our signature smocking design “Jaws”, which combines triple-space single wave stitches, layered between three-step trellis stitch zigzags. Just add meteoric ambition, a sprinkling of stubbornness and large dose of determination and she'll have hearts a-flutter wherever she goes.

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.
