What's in the Box

Burgundy velvet pirate dress with white blouse sleeves, gold corset lacing, black-and-white striped underskirt
Pirate skull-and-crossbones tricorn hat headpiece with gold trim

This Kids Pirate Girl Costume brings storybook buccaneer energy with a burgundy velvet bodice, white puff sleeves, and a layered striped skirt. The gold corset lacing detail and scalloped overskirt hem give it treasure-hunter flair, and the mini tricorn hat with skull-and-crossbones badge seals the look.

The dress is all one piece — white blouse attached underneath the velvet vest-style bodice, burgundy overskirt with black-and-white striped underskirt peeking through. Gold rickrack trim edges the scalloped hem, and a black belt sits at the natural waist. Comfortable for hours of wear — soft velvet-like fabric that's not scratchy, puff sleeves that don't pinch.

Perfect For

Book Week & School Dress-Up Days: A natural fit for pirate-themed literature (Treasure Island, Peter Pan's Captain Hook, How I Became a Pirate), school character parades, or any storybook buccaneer event.

Halloween & Costume Parties: Works beautifully for Halloween trick-or-treating, Talk Like a Pirate Day, or birthday parties with a treasure hunt theme.

Dress-Up Play at Home: Layered design and comfortable fit make this one kids reach for again and again — pairs with imaginative play, backyard adventures, or kindy photo days.

How to Wear It

Pair with black Mary Janes or ballet flats as shown. Accessorise with a toy sword tucked into the belt, a telescope, or a drawstring pouch filled with chocolate gold coins for full pirate effect.

Parent FAQs

What size should I order?

Check the size chart for chest and length measurements. The dress has a fitted bodice and full skirt, so if your child is between sizes, size up for comfort and room to move.

Can she wear this over regular clothes?

The dress is designed to be worn on its own or over a white singlet if the day is warm. The attached blouse sleeves mean no extra layering needed.

How does the hat attach?

The tricorn headpiece sits on top of the head with an elastic band or clip (standard mini hat style). It's lightweight and won't fall off during active play.

Is this suitable for Australian school events?

Absolutely — it's a popular pick for Book Week pirate characters, school concerts with a high-seas theme, and kindy dress-up days. The burgundy and gold colour scheme works year-round.

Care: Spot clean or gentle hand wash. Hang to dry, avoid tumble drying velvet fabric.
