Colette Girl's Navy Floral Winter Dress, hand-embroidered collar, pleated flare
Hand embroidery
Pleated dress
Statement collar
The Todlem Colette is a long-sleeved navy winter dress for girls, finished with a pale blue scalloped collar embroidered by hand. A ditsy floral print runs throughout, tiny four-petal flowers in the same pale blue, scattered across a deep navy ground. Buttoned waist tabs release into a knife-pleated skirt that flares softly as she moves.
It is cut in woven fabric, a substantial winter-weight cloth with a soft napped surface, structured enough to hold its pleats through the season, with plenty of room to run. The collar is embroidered in our Lahore atelier, stitch by stitch: the detail that takes the longest and the first thing anyone notices.
The deep navy holds the white collar and the small flowers in balance. It reads dressed up without being fussy, right for a family lunch, a birthday, a winter wedding or Eid. In Pakistan it carries the cold months; in Dubai it suits air-conditioned interiors and travelling.
Available in sizes 2–9 years. Made slowly, in small numbers, the kind of dress that is worn, loved and eventually passed on.
Questions
Is this dress warm enough for winter in Lahore or Islamabad?
Yes. It's cut in a substantial brushed winter-weight cloth with long sleeves, and works through the cold months with tights or leggings underneath.
Will it work in Dubai?
It suits air-conditioned interiors, evening events and the winter season rather than outdoor wear in summer.
How does the sizing run?
Sizes run in two-year bands and are cut with room to move. If she's between sizes, size up, the waist tabs hold the shape.
Is the embroidery done by hand?
Yes. The collar is embroidered by hand in our Lahore atelier, which is why no two are exactly alike.
