Caramel Floral Valerie Girl Hand-Smocked Dress

La Coqueta's Valerie Girl Hand-Smocked Dress is one of those outfits you'll truly cherish. This classic dress is handcrafted by artisans from luxuriously soft organic cotton, decorated with a ditsy floral print, exclusive to La Coqueta, in delicious tones of caramel on a classic beige base. It is shirred across the empire-line waist and finished with intricate honeycomb smocking and contrasting embroidery, which is completed by hand and can take up to seven hours per piece. It has long sleeves that are gathered at the cuff, and a charming tiered frill collar. It has an elegant silhouette that flows into a long skirt that swishes with every move, and fastens at the back with a covered button placket and a self-tie bow. Embodying our love for feminine silhouettes and vintage-inspired prints, it is the ultimate dress for party season and weekend wear, with charming mother of pearl buttons down the yoke.

Layer up with La Coqueta’s luxuriously soft knitwear for cooler evenings, and pair it with buttery soft Nappa leather shoes in a range of seasonal shades like the Girl T-Bars and Girl Mary Janes.
