My daughter, like me, is addicted to dresses. Oh, occasionally I find she’s dressed herself in MC Hammer pants and a sequined tee (she’s a style maker, what can I say). But mostly, she adores dresses–and I adore her in them. When I find pretty dresses like these, my heart just skips a beat.

Gorgeous handmade girls' dresses | Sailor Rose


Sailor Rose’s little girls’ dresses are stunners: beautiful, playful and perfectly designed. There’s an array of options: floral patterns, stripes, two-toned dresses and box pleats (my absolute favorite). All of the dresses are made in NYC using Liberty of London Fabrics as well as organic jersey, velvet and organic cotton grown in Texas, spun and knit in North Carolina.

These dresses are timeless. The material can withstand just about anything, and these styles will be around for years to come. My daughter has this box pleat confetti dress and I have to force myself not to dress her in it every single day, it’s so stinking cute.

I also love how these dresses can transition from winter to summer. Just add tights in the cold months and cute little sandals in the warm months. In addition to dresses, Sailor Rose sells little girl skirts and headbands, as well as women’s fashion. You and your little girl can even match fabrics. Fun! –Kirsten
