I'm not really sure how to describe exactly what I mean but my attempts at googling have brought up a lot of 'romany frilly' results.

Oldest dd really loves them but I'm finding it difficult to find them in anything but baby sizes.

They’re quite Spanish in style. If you google ‘Spanish girls dresses uk’ it should give you lots of results.

This shop is near me - think it’s what you are looking for .

I find that a lot of market stalls selling children’s clothing often sell frilly dresses.

If you are near an Asian community, you will also usually find these types of dresses in these shops.

I used to love this style when I was little, and the above are both places where my parents bought them for me.

Lots of this spanish/romany style at markets, or 'Please Mom' opposite Selfridges in London

Scoopofchaff · 22/07/2018 14:43

Trotters? (But more classic trad English than frilly perhaps but they do have shirring.)

NashvilleQueen · 22/07/2018 14:46

Tk maxx sometimes have this sort of stuff in. Bit hit and miss tho.

thedrysuitordeal · 22/07/2018 14:46

I've found one brand so far which is Dolce petit

I'm very rural so ideally looking for stuff I can buy online but ebay/ alibaba as I don't really trust clothes from them.

More frills and bows than the sort of traditional english style but not as modern or hippyish (boho??) as a lot of the spanish style dresses

Sorry I'm quite picky but terrible at describing things Blush
