Stretchy school dresses

4 replies

Can anyone recommend a shop that sells gingham summer school dresses (for primary) that have some stretch?
My5yo DD still struggles with dressing - querying dyspraxia- and if it doesn't have any give she gets stuck without help.
Does this exist, or are they all stiff cotton?

You can get the ones that look like a tshirt attached to a skirt they are jersey tops but the waist band isn't stretchy.

I'm sure the ones with a zip front I got Dd from Ebay years ago had some stretch in them, they looked like normal gingham school dresses with a polo shirt collar I'll go and see if I can find them

As a retired Reception teacher I can confirm that the zip front ones are much easier to get on and off. They had some in Asda the other day but I don't know if they were stretchy. I don't think I've ever encountered stretchy ones.

They’re not stretchy but we have the sporty style Tu ones, the zip comes quite far down so there’s plenty of room to manoeuvre, unlike the button up ones which can be tricky https://tuclothing.sainsburys.co.uk/product/tuc141678835
