La Coqueta's Carla Girl Hand-Smocked Dress is a delightful choice for the warm-weather season, crafted from supersoft cotton poplin. With a charming stand collar, pleated trim, and shirred bodice, this dress exudes total elegance. Short puffed sleeves add a voluminous touch, while the longer-length floaty skirt is fully lined for comfort. The banded waist showcases stunning green and pink smocked embroidery rendered by skilled seamstresses at our family-owned ateliers, who devote 7 hours of hand-smocking to each style, beautifully weaving the traditional yet timeless technique into our clothing and sharing their artisanal craft with every stitch. Adjust for the perfect fit at the back with the self-tie bow, we recommended sizing up on smocked sizes that are elasticated at the front. This dress features an exclusive print meticulously designed in-house at our Notting Hill studio. Inspired by vintage botanical illustrations, delicate floral and bird motifs were first hand-rendered in fine detail before being digitally refined and printed in Spain in small runs of fabric. The result is a soft, painterly pattern in classic tones of green, pink and blue, perfectly complementing the feminine details. Pair with the matching Girl Top Knot Hairband and coordinate with a sister wearing the Azura Baby Girl Hand-Smocked Set for those adorable perfect-picture moments.
Layer up with La Coqueta’s luxuriously soft knitwear for cooler evenings, and pair it with buttery soft Nappa leather shoes in a range of seasonal shades like the Girl T-Bars and Girl Mary Janes. Explore the wider range of timeless dresses this season, including stunning smocked silhouettes and painterly floral prints.
FIT: This garment fits true to size; we recommend purchasing the exact age for the perfect fit. If the child is in between ages we recommend purchasing the next age up for the perfect fit.

"I couldn’t be more thrilled with my recent experience shopping at La Coqueta! The shipping was incredibly fast, and the packaging was beautiful – such a joy to open. We purchased two dresses for the Christmas season, along with some shoes and tights, and every single piece is glorious. The black patent T-bar shoes are the epitome of timeless classics – beautifully made and perfect for any occasion. The dresses are stunning, crafted with impeccable attention to detail. The designs are tasteful, elevated, and exude timeless elegance. La Coqueta continues to impress with its commitment to quality and style. Each piece is not only beautifully made but also feels truly special. I can’t recommend them enough for anyone looking for exquisite children’s clothing that is as practical as it is gorgeous."
