The jury is in . . . and the balance of power has definitely shifted!

Once upon a time it was mother and grandma who picked little girls’ dresses.  But things have changed.   The young ladies themselves are weighing in on the decision making process in a BIG way these days.

The older the girl, the more input she provides.  But we’re hearing reports that even tiny 4 year olds have their own definite opinions on style these days

While the full, poufy little girl dresses will always be with us and cherished for little ones, the older girls (and some mini divas too) are opting for sleeker, more sophisticates styles.

The #1 choice today among our little fashioniestas is the A-line dress.  This is a smooth silhouette that is narrow at the top and widens to the hemline but has NO gathering (though it may have one or two pleats).

 The #2 choice is the circle skirt dress.  That is literally a skirt that is a full circle attached to the waistline (high or natural) without any gathering or pleats.

What else?

Beading and bling!  Today’s little girls want style and detail on their dresses!

And of course, we have all this and more at The Perfect Pear Children’s special occasion boutiques . . . and our Girls Dresses & Gowns Boutique.
