Questions About our Dress Ups


Q. What makes your dress ups stand out above the rest?
A. Glad you asked! Our customers return again and again for our offered products for many reasons. 

  • Your kids will love the comfort of our Dress Ups.  The fabrics are so soft!  We sell nothing with itchy fabrics or underskirts. 
  • We carry only high quality Dress Ups that last.  They are made to be durable.  In fact, we guarantee their quality and durability. 
  • Uniquely, the dresses have no Velcro or zippers to snag the fabric.
  • They are washable, as opposed to some costumes found in big box stores which you can only "wipe clean."
  • Our products are easy for children to put on and take off.  There are no buttons or ties to frustrate little fingers.  The dresses stretch to fit over their heads like a shirt.  There is nothing more to do!
  • Our Dress Ups are available in multiple sizes to assure your kids get just the right fit.  No more "too small" dress-ups.


Q. What are the washing/care instructions?
A. We only sell items that are machine washable.  Follow the washing instructions on the tag.  Most will be "machine wash gentle" and line dry.  A "no heat" setting in the dryer is fine as well.   You want to protect the metallic trims from heat.  Be sure not to wash/dry them with any other items that have Velcro. Velcro will snag the fabric.

Q. How do I get the wrinkles out?
A. Because your items are shipped folded, they will arrive with some deep wrinkles.  So here's some options for getting the wrinkles out.  The easiest way to release the wrinkles would be to just go ahead and wash the item.  Let it line dry and you should have a mostly smooth dress up.  If there are still a few wrinkles you can toss it in a warm dryer just for a few minutes.  Be careful not to let dresses with metallic trims get too hot in order to prevent damage.  This is also a nice quick option to relax the finer wrinkles from having been stored in a dress up box.  You can also iron the wrinkles out.  Use a warm iron and never leave it sitting in one spot.  Even the sheer overlays of our deluxe dresses can be ironed on a low setting.  Do NOT iron fabric that has screen printed metallic designs.

Q. Will my two or three year old be able to dress up herself?
A. You think like us! There are no buttons or ties so s/he should have little trouble.   The dresses are very stretchy on top so she will put it on over her head just like a t-shirt. And the career costumes have easy Velcro behind the false buttons-right in front so he can take care of it himself.

Q. Do I need a fullness slip?
A. This is usually an answer that is specific to your purpose for the dress and your girl's preference. We usually recommend a fullness slip to any girl who likes the big puffy princess look.  This is important when she is trying to "look the part" like on Halloween, in a play, or at a birthday party. Many children however prefer not to bother with the extra layers.  These are the girls that wear their dresses around the house (all day), to the grocery store and even to bed! The dresses will hang fairly straight without the slip (most images show a dress with a slip underneath).

Q. What is the difference between Traditional and Deluxe dresses?
A. The quality of these two styles is exactly the same. The basic difference is that the Deluxe dresses have an extra layer of sheer fabric over the skirt (in various cuts) and extra details and trims over the whole dress.  Some of our dresses can be found in both versions and some can't-some are only found in one category or the other.

Q. Do your doll dresses fit on Bitty Baby's?
A. Yes.  Our doll dresses are specifically made for 18" American Girls dolls.  But they are stretchy and will fit many other dolls and stuffed animals.  This includes Cabbage Patch dolls, Bitty Baby dolls and Chou Chou dolls.
