Kids’ trends, like other fashions, may come and go. But a well-made dress is like an heirloom that can last for generations.
The Otilly collection is a family of gorgeous dresses all with pretty girls’ names and simple yet stylish detailing.
From the playful Annabel to the romantic Isla, each has its own character to appeal to your little miss, whether she’s a princess or a tomboy at heart.
What’s cool about these dresses is not just their timeless appeal – and that super twirly factor – but that they can be worn anywhere, from beach to bridal train.
Mum of two Zara, the owner of Otilly, stumbled across these dresses in a small village in the south of France. It was love at first sight and not content with scooping up two for her daughter, she decided to import them to the UK.
All the finishing is done by hand, from the delicate embroidery to the smocking that gives each dress its unique combination of carefree elegance. Each dress is 100% pure cotton, machine washable at 30 degrees and is available for ages 1 to 6.
