Girls' Christmas dress – for the little big moments of Christmas

Excitement in the air, a bow being tied and one last little twirl before it's time to celebrate. A girls' Christmas dress becomes part of the moments you share, from the first gathering in December to Christmas Day with the whole family together.

At LIVLY, timeless design, fine materials and playful details come together in dresses for memorable occasions. When choosing a children's Christmas dress, there's room for both the festive feeling and her personality. Dressing up should feel special, with room for all the fun the day has in store.

A girls' Christmas dress with thoughtful details

It's often the little details that turn a dress into a favourite. A beautiful collar, a delicate lace trim or a bow can give the garment its own character. LIVLY's dress range includes details that combine classic elegance with a playful feel.

A girls' Christmas dress should be lovely to look at and wonderful to wear. Let the child help choose between colours, prints and shapes. Perhaps it's the full skirt that appeals, or a detail that feels truly special. When the child loves the garment herself, getting ready becomes a lovely part of the celebrations.

Fine materials for a much-loved party dress

When choosing a kids' Christmas dress, the material is an important part of the whole. LIVLY's party dresses include styles in cotton and styles where cotton is combined with other materials in different parts of the garment. Read the material description for the dress you choose, as the outer fabric, lining and decorative layers can differ.

The luxurious feel lies in the interplay between fabric, shape and details. A girls' Christmas dress with a considered look doesn't need many accessories to feel festive. Sometimes a pretty collar and a pair of well-chosen tights are enough to create a beautiful whole.

Styling the Christmas dress with a cardigan and pretty accessories

A girls' Christmas dress can take on different looks depending on what you pair it with. A knitted cardigan gives a cosy feel on cooler days, while pretty socks and classic party shoes make the outfit a little more dressed up.

Let a colour from the dress reappear in a bow or a hairband. With a patterned piece, plain accessories can create a calm overall look. A more pared-back girls' Christmas dress leaves room for a more prominent accessory instead.

Think, too, about the moment the cardigan comes off and the shoes are left in the hall. The dress should feel just as lovely while opening presents on the floor as at the laid table.

Choose a girls' Christmas dress with the right fit

Start from the child's height and compare with the size guide for the style in question. It's also worth checking any other measurements listed. If you're buying a children's Christmas dress well before the celebrations, allow for the fact that she may grow.

Let the child try the dress on with the pieces it will be worn with. She should be able to sit, lift her arms and move without anything feeling tight. Also check that the length feels right when she walks and plays.

A timeless girls' Christmas dress can come along to more occasions than Christmas. With different accessories, the same favourite takes on a new look for birthdays and family celebrations. Follow the garment's care instructions so the dress gets the care it needs between celebrations.
