Girls Linen Summer Dress with Flared Cap Sleeves

This girls summer dress is a light, elegant style built for warm weather. Flared cap sleeves give the shoulders a soft flutter, while a button-back closure keeps the fastening simple and makes the dress easy to get on and off. The silhouette stays breezy and uncomplicated, so it suits both quiet afternoons and busy days of running around.

Natural linen is the fabric the design was made for, giving the skirt body and the sleeves their gentle movement, and it only softens with washing. Linen blends work well too if a little less creasing is preferred. Wear it for summer holidays, birthday parties and family gatherings, or let it become an everyday play dress that handles heat without fuss.

Sizes run from 2Y to 16Y (2Y, 3Y, 4Y, 5Y, 6Y, 7Y, 8Y, 10Y, 12Y, 14Y, 16Y). The pattern is a PDF for printing at home on A4 and US Letter paper, and it also includes an A0 file for printing at a copy shop. Each size is a separate file, so you print only the size you need.
