Spring has officially arrived in North Texas and flowers are popping up everywhere, both in nature and fashion. Here are a few of my favorite new floral-inspired designs for little girls from Neiman Marcus at NorthPark Center.

Bright colors and modern prints set the tone for this matching dress ($98 and up) and raincoat ($124 and up). The cotton dress features fun polka-dots with a floral hem, an empire waist and jewel neckline. Pair it with the butterfly-hooded raincoat and she’ll be ready for those spring showers (made in France by designer Cantimini and available in sizes 6 months to 6 years).

Perfect for First Communion, formal parties and other special occasions, this exquisite applique dress of satin and tulle features a cascading floral detail in soft white and pink ($220).  Designer Joan Calabrese is known for her luxurious children’s clothes and several of her designs are featured in the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art and Philadelphia Museum of Art (made in the U.S.A by Calabrese and available in sizes 4 to 12).

Bright floral blues bring a playful flare to this floral jacquard dress with tulle skirt ($245 and up). This sleeveless dress is perfect for the little girl who wants to make a bold statement without being too girly. Charbia clothing is known for their original designs and exquisite detailing (made in France and available in sizes 2 to 14).


Now is the time to spring into the season with beautiful floral designs from Neiman Marcus at NorthPark Center.
