Fancy Dresses For Little People

September 6th, 2007 @ 2:29 pm by Mrs. Radish

Like shopping for bridesmaid dresses, finding flower girl dresses that I liked was much harder than I expected it to be. Most flower girl dresses I found were either really expensive (over $200!) or very tacky. I didn’t want something all white that looked like a mini-bride dress or a first communion gown.

Then I found this dress online from One Small Child for $150. They are silk dupioni (same as most of my dress) in slightly off-white color with a contrasting sash and underskirt and a detachable flower pin. There are about 15 colors to pick for the underskirt and sash and they actually had navy blue, the color of our bridesmaids dresses. Yay!

They were more expensive than I wanted them to be, but I really liked them and I offered to help pay for the dresses if it was a problem. I guess I just got kind of sick of looking for a good flower girl dress, too. Plus one of my flower girls did tell me that she wanted to “look like a queen,” not a princess, but a queen. So I had to find something suitable for mini-royalty, right?

Hahaha, I love it! I’d tell her, “Sorry kid, you can be queen in about 20 years.” ;)

Miss Radish,

This is a non sequiter, but can you describe what the back of the lily-embroidered organza Nicole Miller dress you tried on looked like? Like if there were buttons, or if the sash was just a long piece of satin. I’ve tried to look for pictures of the back of the dress EVERYwhere online, and can’t find it!

Thank you. :)

L — The back was pretty simple, it just had a zipper and the sahs tied in back. The sash was made of satin and was very long.

I do have a picture of the back (thought it’s not a great one) and I posted it in the Wedding Bee Boards for you.
