The influence of La Coqueta's Spanish craftsmanship shines through Celia Muñoz's romantic designs, particularly in the Ava Girl Hand Smock Dress. This version is crafted from supersoft linen tailored with a touch of cotton for extra durability and decorated with a sweet shade of light blue. It has a rounded neckline and short sleeves accented by the brand's signature scalloped trims in contrasting red and a fit-and-flare silhouette that hugs at the waist with hand-smocked honeycomb detail and intricately designed embroidered contrasting finishes. The long floaty skirt is perfect for whirling and twirling, with a self-tie bow at the back to adjust for the perfect fit, and it pairs effortlessly with La Coqueta's buttery soft Nappa leather party shoes.
Layer up with La Coqueta’s luxuriously soft knitwear for cooler evenings, and pair it with buttery soft Nappa leather shoes in a range of seasonal shades like the Girl T-Bars and Girl Mary Janes. Explore the wider range of timeless dresses this season, including stunning smocked silhouettes and painterly floral prints.

Hand-Smocking Details

Hand Smocking
A beautiful and intricate art that requires precise pleating and fine hand embroidery skills, hand smocking adds a special final touch to any outfit. Extensively used in the eighteen and nineteenth centuries, we love the intricacy and detail of decorative stitching, with our new collection reviving a traditional craft with a modern twist, in true La Coqueta style.

Hand-Finished
Expertly hand-finished by our ateliers in Spain, hand smocking is a practical finish to garments that is both form-fitting and flexible, with fabric gathered into pleats in a variety of ways. Devotion and love for craftsmanship help to create our shirred dresses, with horizontal rows of synchronised running stitch used on bodices and sleeves to build a fuller design element.

Fit Guidance
Due to the nature of the form fitting design, if the child is in between ages we recommend purchasing the next age up for the perfect fit.
