Her Very First Party Dress - Butterfly Net Frock for Baby Girls

The first few months go by in a blur - and somewhere in the middle of all that, you're looking for a dress that makes your baby girl look like the little star she already is. This net frock for girls in gold and light salmon does exactly that. Soft butterfly applique on supersoft net fabric, half sleeves for warmth, and a silhouette that photographs beautifully - whether it's her naming ceremony, a family gathering, or a first birthday shoot.

Designed for babies aged 3 to 12 months, this frock for baby girl is made from soft net fabric with a gentle lining to protect delicate newborn and infant skin. The butterfly applique adds a sweet, feminine touch without making the dress heavy or uncomfortable. The colours - gold and light salmon - are classic for Indian baby occasions: warm, celebratory, and flattering in both natural and indoor lighting.

Parents across India looking for festive wear for kids that doesn't compromise on comfort for tiny babies will find this to be a reliable pick. The fabric is light, the fit is relaxed enough for nappy-wearing babies, and the half-sleeve design means she'll stay comfortable at indoor parties and air-conditioned venues alike.

Fabric & Care

The outer layer of this baby girl party frock is made from soft net fabric with a delicate sparkle. Net is lightweight and gives that celebratory, special-occasion feel that cotton cannot quite match. The inner lining ensures the net doesn't scratch or irritate infant skin. The butterfly applique is stitched securely and does not come loose with careful handling.

Washing Instructions

• Hand wash only in cold water - net fabric is delicate and requires gentle care
• Do not wring or twist - gently squeeze excess water out and lay flat to dry
• Use a small amount of mild detergent; no bleach
• Dry in shade away from direct sunlight - sunlight can affect the sparkle and colour
• Do not iron the applique directly; use a cloth between the iron and the applique if pressing
• Store flat or rolled, not hung, to maintain the net's shape

Size Guide 

For infant frocks, fit around the nappy area matters as much as chest size. Both sizes are cut with extra room to accommodate Indian-style nappy wraps as well as disposable diapers.
