A gift for a child - no matter if it is a dress or anything else - must be a joy for him first and foremost. Do not try to force your child into a little princess if he clearly has different tastes and prefers a fire engine than even the most glamorous dress for a girl.
These interests, however, become clear at the age of a few years and we can quickly notice whether we are growing a little elegant lady who eagerly reaches for her mother's shoes and constantly dresses up her dolls. In this case, a dress for a girl will be a perfect Christmas gift.
A dress for a girl - every day or on holidays?
When choosing a girl's dress for a Christmas gift, we should, of course, be guided by the taste of the person concerned. However, let's approach it uncritically, choosing only what our kids like, especially if they are a few years old. At this age, the child will tend to exaggerated dresses known from fairy tales - kilometers of tulle and kilograms of sequins. On the other hand - simple, everyday dresses for girls will not make her happy either.
So let's compromise - a girly dress that will be glamorous and elegant, but also used for most occasions. Let's give the child a chance to show off a new dress and wear it for most family celebrations - birthdays, first communions or weddings.
We can successfully choose a cut that is adapted to the age of the child and effective accessories. Their functions can be performed, for example, by a large, golden bow, an impressive feather dress, a timeless dress with a pink tulle bottom, or effective feathers on the sleeves.
A sophisticated dress for an older girl
Girls 10-12 years old already have a better sense of style and are more interested in fashion. In their case, we can try more subdued models of girls' dresses, resembling the designs of the best fashion houses. Such a dress for a girl as a Christmas gift will not only please the eye of the recipient, but will also be the first "adult" gift.
So let us bear in mind that older children would like to be taken seriously. Instead of pinks and flared, voluminous cuts, let's go for blacks, navy blue and reds. Let's also make sure that the chosen girl's dress has stylish elements that will be the focal point of the dress. A velvet dress with spectacular cut-outs on the shoulders or a dress with transparent tulle sleeves will be perfect for this role. In such dresses, our child will certainly feel appreciated and beautiful.
