Apolina's Patsy dress is the most beautiful summer dress with a babydoll silhouette. Crafted from 'Milk' cotton/linen blend, this dress has intricate hand-crocheted panels at the chest and hem, the prettiest multicoloured embroidery and a hand-crochet trim at the sleeve, hem and neck. There's invisble zip closure at at the back. We love Patsy styled with socks and sandals.
88% cotton, 12% linen. Hand wash recommended. Ethically made in India.

Please note: Due to the handwork on this garment, the length is subject to a slightly wider tolerance than usual, the embroidery is done by varying craftspeople and Apolina expect differences from piece to piece. Indi in the studio shoot imagery is 135cm tall and wearing a 7-9y sample.
is a modern embroidered children's clothing brand: exciting yet nostalgic, with longevity and a sense of craft. Designed in England, but inspired by travel, traditional handicrafts and the natural world, the collection's beautiful dresses, blouses and short have relaxed silhouettes so children are comfortable and can play freely. Apolina hope each piece will be passed down to younger siblings, then kept by mothers as a reminder of cherished childhood memories, and passed to grandchildren as a future heirloom.
The SS25 collection is a love letter to Provence, inspired by meadows, beaches and warm village nights filled with cicada song. Pops of colour weave Provence's meadow flowers into Apolina's signature natural palette. There are 1920s-inspired dress silhouettes and mid-century influenced prints bringing a nostalgic, rural French mood.
