Birdie Dress in Paris Flowers

Style  & Fabric

One of our best-selling summer styles for a reason; Birdie is just so pretty! Soft frills flatter the chest and the smocked bodice adds comfort and ease of fit. Stitched in softest cotton cambric and fully-lined.

About the Print

Paris Flowers and its border is a highly intricate , block print created in 2024, developed over the two years from an 18th century French scarf in our archive. This piece was hand block printed, cut, stitched and finished entirely with our close partners in Jaipur. Each design is produced in small batches of around 30-60 pieces to ensure exclusivity and complete control and care in production.

Sizing & Fit

Model is 5ft 8

Featuring a beautiful deep 'V' at the front and back, the block-printed Birdie dress has a soft, fully smocked bodice with plenty of stretch. This dress has pockets.

Please check the size guide for your perfect fit, measuring your bust at the fullest part for your true chest measurement.

All our Daydress garments and homewares are produced in small batches using techniques and textiles which place them miles away from the world of fast fashion.

These items require special care; Looked after properly, they will last a lifetime but please read your care label and the advice below carefully before washing your Daydress for the first time!

Darker and pigment rich prints can be delicately dry-cleaned to preserve their colour. If your product is dry-clean only this will be indicated on your care label. 

For all other Daydress garments you can machine-wash these at home on a short, cold cycle for delicates. For best results gently dab away marks before you wash and use natural detergent (one that doesn't contain bleach/lighteners).

Do not leave damp in the machine overnight!

Use a medium iron on the reverse or, we love using a small hand-steamer (Propress or The Steamery do a good one).  Just slip it between the lining and outer layers for a great finish or to freshen up the garment between washes.

Please note that the block-print on the under-arm area of dresses can be affected by perspiration and deodorant and the friction which naturally occurs whilst wearing.
