Maya Deluxe Midi Dress - Ivory - 5-6 Years

This Maya Deluxe dress is specifically designed for kids. It is available in various UK sizes, ranging from 3-4 Years up to 11-12 Years, catering to a broad age range for young girls.

The sequins are carefully hand-sewn, which contributes to the dress's beautiful finish. While it is durable for normal wear at special events, rough play or excessive rubbing can potentially dislodge individual sequins. Gentle handling during wear and care is highly recommended to preserve its look.

We strongly recommend referring to a standard UK children's size chart and comparing it with your child's current body measurements, specifically chest, waist, and height. This approach will help ensure the best possible fit, as children's sizes can vary.

No, due to the delicate nature of the hand-sewn sequins and the tulle material, machine washing is not recommended. For optimal care and longevity of the dress, spot cleaning for minor marks or gentle hand washing in cool water is advised.

This dress is incredibly versatile and perfect for a wide array of special occasions. It's ideal for weddings (as a guest, flower girl, or bridesmaid), birthday parties, elegant evening parties, first communions, christenings, and professional photography shoots. Its elegant design ensures your child will feel special and look beautiful at any celebratory event.

The dress features a satin belt that is designed to be tied into a decorative bow. While it's an integral part of the dress's aesthetic, it is not permanently attached and can be adjusted or re-tied to suit your preference for fit and style.

Handle the dress gently during wear, dressing, and cleaning. Avoid rubbing the sequined areas against rough surfaces or abrasive materials. If a few sequins come loose, it's often a minor cosmetic issue, but excessive loss indicates a need for more careful handling.

Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for 15-20 minutes; the humidity will help relax the wrinkles. Alternatively, use a handheld garment steamer from a safe distance, moving it quickly over the fabric without direct contact, ensuring the fabric is not overly saturated.

Gently check for any fabric, threads, or hair caught in the zipper teeth. If clear, rub the tip of a graphite pencil or a dry bar of soap along the zipper teeth to lubricate it. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can cause damage.

Ensure the bow is tied securely with a firm knot. For added security, you can try tying a double knot. For events where it needs to stay perfect, a small, discreet safety pin can be used on the inside to secure the loops of the bow to the dress.

Verify the dress size against the child's current measurements, as children's lengths can vary significantly by height even within the same age group. If too long, a professional tailor experienced with delicate fabrics can hem the tulle, but be aware of the potential cost. If too short, consider pairing with opaque tights or leggings that complement the dress.
