Description
This crochet fancy dress pairs a textured crochet top in soft acrylic yarn with a full skirt of layered polyester tulle, ready for twirling. The top has a gentle V neckline and lacy openwork straps, with a close stitch across the body and a pretty scalloped edge at the waist. From there, layer upon layer of sheer tulle falls to an uneven hem of soft points, so the skirt floats and flutters with every step. We offer it in three colours, pale pink, bright pink and aqua blue, each worked in a single shade from strap to hem. It comes in two sizes, 3-4 years and 5-6 years, and the 3-4 years size measures 55cm long and 30cm across.
Fancy dress like this belongs in every dressing-up box. It is made for make-believe at home: ballet shows in the living room, fairy-tale games, mermaid adventures and twirling around the garden. Pale pink keeps things soft and classic, bright pink gives a bolder burst of colour, and aqua blue brings a cool, seaside shade. It slips over a T-shirt or leggings for extra layers on cooler days, and pairs happily with wings, a wand or a sparkly headband for a costume of your own making.
The top is crocheted in 100% acrylic yarn and the skirt is 100% polyester, a light pairing that is easy to put on and easy to fold away between games. To keep it looking its best, hand wash only, then lay it flat to air-dry; do not iron it and do not use bleach. Once dry, a gentle shake fluffs the tulle layers back to their full shape. Wrapped in tissue, it makes a cheerful present for a child who loves dressing up, and one that will come out of the dressing-up box again and again.
