Today's review covers the baby dress with festive ribbon, style BK103B1, available in white and ivory. This wonderful baby dress is made in the U.S.A. guaranteeing a high quality dress that will last more than one wear! This dress style runs in the usual small through extra large just for your baby. This dress was designed with the classic sleeveless bodice and a full skirt made of a light weight taffeta fabric. The taffeta has a subtle sheen to it, giving off the illusion of a raw silk! The taffeta fabric is a mix of crisp and smooth, it holds the shape of the dress well as it accentuates the fullness at the waist. Accompanying this taffeta is a pleated satin waist band and adjustable waist sash as well as a satin skirt, seen below the hem of the taffeta overlay. The combination of satin and taffeta is a delightful design detail; the satin brings more shine to the subtle sheen of the taffeta, but not too much shine to take away from the embroidery. It very easily looks more expensive and high quality; the combination looks more interesting than a dress made entirely out of one type of fabric. Decorating the taffeta bodice and skirt overlay is a 1/16" ribbon embroidery, creating daisy flowers and swooping lines that dance all over the dress, both on the front and back, bringing a little youthful charm to this otherwise sophisticated dress with a simple silhouette. Included with this tea length dress is a detachable flower pin with ribbons at the waist, a stretch bow headband with floral accent, a pair of matching bloomers! This wonderfully designed baby dress is well-balanced between simple and intricate, sophisticated and youthful. With all the colors to choose from, there are so many opportunities all year round to wear this formal baby dress! |
