Fab Frocks are two stunning yet simple dresses for little girls who like to play in style. The Swing Dress features thin straps tied at the shoulders, while The Party Girl Dress is made with thicker shoulder straps, secured with large buttons. Quick and simple to sew up, making a few of these in your favourite fabrics will be no hassle at all. Layer the dresses over a t-shirt or long sleeved top and tights to wear them all year long! You can easily turn the swing dress and party girl dress into tunic tops by simply making the skirt a little shorter!
