Clothes to inspire a very lanky 12 year old dd.

Who essentially needs aged 14 clothes. I need to direct her to some websites for inspiration. She hates everything.

She has loads of Jack wills skinny joggers and a couple of pinafores. She likes the kind of hippy 70's lol with broderie anglaise and cord.

915 and river island shite and too small sizes anyway.

She has one too small party dress we got in now dead Debenhams.

Any suggestions?

Your DD may fit into an 8 instead of teenage although it can be more expensive. That slightly boho look/ 70s is quite difficult - my DD also favours it, although probably less refined as she likes patterns and prints. Haven’t found one store but have found some clothes in hm, superdry and really occasionally new look. Also some trousers and boilersuit from Lucy & Yak. Run n Fly do corduroy but may not be the correct style for your DD. My DD also wears harems in the summer which you can pick up cheaply from Amazon or small shops. On the pattern side t shirts from Norse nook or Sugarhill Brighton have been liked. I have also had clothes made but usually in soft, patterned fabric (Dactyl and Bear are one firm I’ve used). Not a super answer but will be looking at any other suggestions.

DD also liked this dress in H&M which was a win -ID code - 1019417009004 (app won’t let me post link)
