Lavender/Lilac hydrangea tulle dress with one Flower Strap/Flower Girl Dress/hydrangea flower girl d

Breathtaking! That's how your little flower girl is going to look in this gorgeous little petal dress. Designed with "one of a kind" in mind, and individually created to custom fit your precious little person, this dress is sure to accentuate your beautiful colors on that special day. This purchasing link is for the one flower petal strap version of our Lavender/Lilac petal dress, but this beautiful tulle-skirted tutu dress is also available in our shop for purchase with ribbon shoulder straps, strapless, or with two flower petal shoulder straps. That's the short and simplified basics of this pretty little dress. For more detailed information, see our long-winded ♡ and not-so-short paragraphs below. You'll find helpful information on sizing, timing, ordering, lining, customizing, creating, and communicating. Please note: post-covid, the lavender petals with pink and purple strokes that you see pictured in this dress are no longer available from our supplier, and as of summer 2022, we have exhausted our pre-covid supplies of this petal; the solid lavender petals (also in the pictures) is what this dress is now created with, in a blending variety of lavender shades. Please let us know if you have any questions about this petal adjustment. Thanx! .*o*.*o*.SIZING.*o*.*o*. "How do I know which size to order?" That's a great question! Since each little dress is made precisely to fit your little flower girl, ordering the right size is very important. We suggest taking accurate measurements of your little one to ensure the best fit. (The last image of the pictures provided with this listing might help visually explain a few things, but we definitely would suggest that you take measurements of your little flower girl, rather than guess, since we make these dresses customized to fit your little one like-a-glove made just for them.) The very basic measurements we need for creating one of these dresses are (1) the usual dress size that your little one wears, (2) their chest measurement, and (3) the total garment length you would like. The total garment length is measured in a straight line from the underarm crease (the armpit) to where you want the dress to stop (the lower edge/hem) (this total garment length measurement is illustrated in the last photo/image associated with this dress listing). This dress is designed to be nearly floor-length but can be adjusted for any length preference. Standard sizes and lengths are also listed for reference at the very bottom of this typed information (see below). Please accurately measure your little flower girl for accurate fitting. Those are the very basic pieces of information we would need. (1) usual dress size (2) chest measurement, and (3) the total garment length For the very BEST results, (4) age, and (5) torso/bodice length will provide additional info to help create this as perfectly fitting as possible. It is helpful for us to know the age of your flower girl, as mentioned (4) above. (While your eight-year-old might fit into a size 6 dress based on her chest measurement, her flower petal shoulder straps won't fit quite right if we think she is a six-year-old, based solely on the order being placed for a size 6, and her torso/bodice length might need to be different than we think. For the best fit, please make sure to let us know what age your little flower girl is, especially if it is different that the dress size that you are ordering.) It is also helpful for us to know the bodice length (5) as mentioned above, especially if it differs from the average bodice lengths suggested in our list below (bodice length is also illustrated in the last photo/image associated with this dress listing). This dress can easily be created with a higher or lower waistline than our averages (see "bodice length" under the "customizing" section below), we would just need to know your preference for the bodice length/torso if it is different than those averages listed at the very bottom of this typed information (see below). If no specific bodice/torso length is noted, we will create your dress based on the averages for the size of dress that you have ordered. Please let us know if you have any questions regarding perfect sizing for your little one. We do understand that sizing can be tricky for some customers to figure out, and that's perfectly okay. If you have any questions, we would be happy to help. Please feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions. Our aim is to custom create this with a glove-like fit. The more sizing information we have, the better we are able to do just that. We can also create this dress in various larger sizes. Please feel free to contact us for more information and help regarding that. .*o*.*o*.TIMING.*o*.*o*. "How soon can I expect my dress to ship?" With wonderful online companies that easily ship within a day or two of purchase, we recognize that quick shipping can be a very normal expectation. However, each of our creations is custom-made with custom measurements and color selections to precisely meet your custom needs and we take careful time to get each order just right. The normal turn-around time for one of these detailed, hand-made creations has been priced at a 6-week production window, but we certainly understand last-minute needs and try to make accommodations for RUSH orders needed in a time frame tighter than that. Each order placed generates a ship date reflecting this 6-week allotted time frame. However, we've all come through 2020 and the chaos it threw each of us for planning events, whether delaying them or speeding them up much sooner than anticipated. We can completely understand that some of our customers may need their order expedited sooner than this 6-week window of time. We have tried to provide feasible options for those needs. (Basically, we create and fulfill orders based on the sequence in which the orders are placed and whose order has the soonest ship date. If you need to slip your dress order ahead of other orders that we already have in production, this link will allow you to select when you would like to change your shipping date to and move your order ahead of others we are working on.) The shipping time frame and the pricing listed in the drop-down menu are based on that allotted 6-week window of time from when you place your order until when this dress would need to be ready to leave our shop to ship to you. If you need to shorten that window of time, for any reason, the following link will provide you that opportunity to do so, slipping your order ahead of others that we are currently working on: Please ship my dress faster: https://www.etsy.com/TulleBoxofTreasures/listing/1458664203/shipping-adjustment-for-standard-colored?utm_source=Copy&utm_medium=ListingManager&utm_campaign=Share&utm_term=so.lmsm&share_time=1681161228011 Hopefully one of the options in the above link helps with your shortened timing need. Please feel free to touch base with us if you have any questions, or if you need your dress in a time frame different than the above link offers. We do ship our dresses 1-4 day priority mail, within the U.S. and we are happy to ship internationally as well. (International orders do vary in estimated delivery times and available shipping methods; feel free to contact us for more specific estimations for your location. International updates on shipping restrictions and delays and suggestions can also be found in the "Shop Announcement" on our home page, as we are made aware of them.) Your dress will be shipped, at the very latest, by the due date listed on your Etsy receipt of purchase. If you are purchasing with a shortened time frame, and utilizing one of the additional shipping links listed above, we will manually adjust the shipping date after the purchase order is sent to us through Etsy. (We haven't missed an order deadline yet, and certainly don't plan to do so!) Please let us know if you have any further questions regarding the timing you may have with your order. .*o*.*o*.ORDERING.*o*.*o*. "How do I navigate the selections available in the drop-downs, when placing my order?" Since we cleverly tried to pack as many possible options you might need to choose from when ordering into the drop-down selections, we realize that we might have over done it and put in too many words! Basically, you first need to "select an option" under the "Size (Chest Inches) & Lining Preference" that best meets your needs. Look for the size of dress that will best suit your little one and the matching chest measurement (in inches) that coordinates with that size. (If you don't see numbers that match your unique little one, feel free to custom mention those to us for customized creation of your dress.) Next you need to decide what lining preference will meet your need and select that option corresponding with your size. Those three options combine together in that one drop-down. If you're not sure which lining option you might need, our next section below titled "lining" might help determine that. The second drop-down, "Armpit to Length" is where you get to select the length that you would like your dress to be. Average lengths are listed at the very bottom of this scroll of information. The final image of the dress photos helps visually explain this as well. Basically, you need to measure from the underarm (armpit) to the lower edge of where you would like the skirt to be. That's the "total garment length," or "armpit to length" measurement. Basically, the more information you can share with us, when ordering, the better we can customize this to fit your little one. (We only had so many drop-downs to work with, and just couldn't capture everything in those.) Average skirt lengths and torso/bodice lengths are listed below. We would be happy to create your dress with your custom torso/bodice length, rather than those averages, if you would just share that measurement with us. Our whole goal is to create this to fit perf
