In a flapper dress for little girls, your princess will look like she just stepped out of The Great Gatsby. The 1920s represent one of the most fashionable eras, and flapper girls were the stars of the show. The style is dramatic, decadent, and all-around fabulous, but it's also fun and playful. Your wee darling can wear a child's flapper dress to a wide range of events, from popular Gatsby-themed parties, to  weddings, to school plays, or even taking a special trip to the city for dinner and a show. 

Belted and Beautiful

Many  Great Gatsby-style dresses have drop-waist designs, as you'll see. It's the signature style of the era. Not only is it a chic and simple silhouette, but it also leaves room for loads of fabulous accessories. Flapper girls loved their accessories, and we know that your fashionable princess loves them, too! 

To satisfy her craving for belts, headbands, and jewelry, look for little girl flapper dresses that come with fab accessories. It's easy to find flapper-style dresses with embellished belts, for example. They don't serve any purpose beyond looking sensational, but there's nothing wrong with that. 

An eye-catching accessory works best with minimalist flapper dresses. For instance, a rhinestone-studded belt can give that extra bit of oomph to a white or pale pink lace dress. Belts adorned with flower accents are lovely, too, and bigger is better. 

Bring the Drama

The flapper aesthetic is truly one-of-a-kind. It's hard to pin down, too. Those drop-waist silhouettes are unmistakable, and light metallics and pastels are the predominant colors of the 1920s. However, sometimes those flapper gals threw all the rules out of the window in favor of something decadent and dramatic. 

Look for a child's flapper dress that's just a little extra. Consider something that nips in at the waist just a little bit. Opt for a rich, dramatic color, such as deep dark blue or burgundy red. You can highlight the flapper fashion with the right accessories, such as  the perfect headband. 

Dainty & Delicate Pastels

As we mentioned, shopping for little girl flapper dresses in delicate pastels is an easy way to capture the authentic style of the era. Flapper girls attending afternoon cocktail parties and daytime soirees would frequently dress in fresh, unexpected pastel hues. They went beyond blue and pink to wear light greens, oranges, and sunny yellows, too. 

Your dainty lass can blossom in pastels, as well. In spring, summer, fall, and winter, she'll be gorgeous in soft yellow or super-light lilac. Even ivory and eggshell have their place. The point is to go beyond traditional white without being too bold. 

The Layered Look

The 1920s were all about decadence, theatrics, and to-die-for details. You might not want your little girl to parade around in a feathered dress, but you can find plenty of child's flapper dresses that imitate that particular style. Swap the feathers for layers and layers of lace. 

A ruffled, tiered skirt is the last word in flapper style. It's the kind of can't-miss detail that will keep people oohing and ahhing over your tiny flapper's sense of fashion. A dress like this is ideal for any occasion, too. She can stand out as a stunning flower girl, perform a Charleston routine  at a pageant, or shake her tail feathers at her best friend's Gatsby party. 

Lovely in Lace

We have lots of little girl flower dresses decorated with lacy ruffles. That cascading silhouette is a trademark of the 1920s style. It will also look adorable on your girl. For pageant frocks and  party dresses, you have to pick out an eye-popping color, such as radiant red or vivid blue. Since the style is perfect for weddings, photo sessions, and special holiday occasions, as well, she can also wear it to formal events in softer, sweeter hues, such as blush or baby blue. 

An A-Line Silhouette

The A-line silhouette is another flapper standout. You can find an array of child's flapper dresses in the A-line style. It's flattering, floaty, and more than a little magical, so you know your fabulous little flapper will love it. 

It's even better if you can find an A-line frock that's draped in lace, but look for elegant, opulent details. For example, French eyelash lace has a flapper vibe, not to mention being feminine and pretty. In white lace, your girl can shine at  her first Communion. The design will look phenomenal at a school dance, as well, or a holiday dinner with family and close friends.
