Cream shell and tights and brown shoes or boots. I like it and think the material seems wintery. Are Zara dresses ever long enough? I think this style would be really loose and boxy in a size or two bigger than otherwise needed.

cream tights? I don't know, I feel like all little kids these days wear dark colored tights all the time.
and you never know with zara dresses sometimes they are long enough and sometimes they aren't, I'm just hoping this one is.

Nice dress! My nieces have it and wear it with a plum shell and matching plum tights (jrp cotton).

Sure this is wintery! And I love the color. Do you know if this is below or above knee length? If they are long enough I would get it for my girls. I would match it with a darker shade of brown but not too dark or maybe that purple from the flower and tights probably solid light beige. That would make it a stunning shabbos outfit. But oh were you thinking this as for everyday?

that's cute! plum like dark purple or like the pinkish color on the flower?
Now I'm wondering if just buying one of the more expensive dresses would be cheaper because then I won't have to buy a matching shell and tights.
chanee- definitely for shabbos

Really pretty. I thought for a moment it was for you.
Navy. If that's too dark, burgundy. Or grey.
The tights and shell should be the same color.

Can you add material to the bottom, using the color of the flower?

Very pretty dress.
It seems like this fabric can also be worn all year round. (almost)
I would pair it with either plum or brown for the winter. (same color shell and tights)
Concentrate on matching the shell & tights color with the same shade of the print on the fabric. It doesn't have to be the exact color but should blend well.
For Pesach and during spring time it might look nice with the cream as well. It may give it a more springy affect.
Enjoy it and have a chag sameach

Size 5-6 reaches the top of the knee on my tall - almost 3 yr old. the rest of the style fits her well everywhere (she is a bit on the chunky side)
My almost 5 year old - average to tall height - is wearing a 8/9 to cover her knees. The styles do get boxier and the necks get wider. I'm thinking I may have to make a dart in the neck of her dress. The 6/7 reached the top of her knee. But in my experience the dresses shrink.
(the sizes above are not for this dress but I did order this dress in a size 6\7 for my 4 year old and it was too short and hit the top of her knee so I returned it - it was very pretty)
for that specific dress I would put on a shell that matches the red\plum\burgundy color or charcoal grey. Tights either the same color as the shell or charcoal grey (even if shell is in the burgundy family).
