David Charles are an iconic childrenswear brand that have been around since the 1970's. Originally based in Britain, they now have boutiques all over the world. Their dresses have been worn by Royalty and Hollywood stars and are designed for girls aged 2 - 16 years old.
The dress I chose is the royal blue and gold occasion dress. When I received the dress I was absolutely thrilled at the quality of it - it has two layers made of tulle and velvet and such beautiful gold embroidered detailing on the top. It also has a round ruffle neckline and knee length pleated skirt which falls beautifully. It is really heavyweight quality fabric and it feels like a really luxurious dress to wear, in fact I’d love one in my size!
Holly is average height for her size, although she does have quite long legs. I went for a size 7 and it fit her perfectly. The dress has a nice long concealed zip at the back so it is easy to slip on and zip up without struggling to get in and out of.
It is such a beautiful colour blue and really suited Holly’s colouring. She has worn it twice already and had lots of comments on how lovely it is. It was the perfect dress for her birthday and seemed pretty robust surviving through eating, dancing and partying the day away.
*We were sent this dress FOC however all opinions are my own.
