Girl - Maila Liberty Green Meadow Daisies Cotton Dress

Some dresses feel like they were made for a particular kind of girl. The Maila in Green Meadow Daisies was made for the one who always wants to be outside.

The Green Meadow Daisies is made entirely in two hand-drawn Liberty fabrics which sit together the way wildflowers do: naturally, without effort. The main print is a soft sage green ground scattered with florals in pink, lavender, peach and yellow, the kind of print that feels like a meadow caught at its best moment, just before summer turns.

The second Liberty print, a cream ground with a larger, more open floral, appears at the deep ruffle collar, in three horizontal bands along the skirt, and on the reverse of the tie belt at the back. Together they do not simply match — they belong together, creating a considered contrast that reveals itself with every movement.

The collar is generous and unfussy, framing the face with a wide gathered ruffle that feels equally at home for everyday adventures or special occasions. The long sleeves gather softly at the cuff. The full skirt moves beautifully with her. At the back, the self-fabric tie pulls into a loose bow, with a discreet zip beneath for easy dressing.

The hem has been cut with room to let down as she grows, so that the dress can accompany her in many of her adventures. The Maila is fully lined in breathable cotton, finished at the hem with a delicate white crochet trim.

The Maila in Green Meadow Daisies is for the girl who comes home with muddy knees and flowers in her hair, and still looks like she belongs in a painting.
