It's the witch every fairy tale warned you about, sized for school-age kids.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe dress sits somewhere between Victorian governess and theatrical villain: high mock-neck collar, fitted bodice with princess seams, sleeves that puff at the shoulder then taper to the wrist. The skirt sweeps to the floor for that proper witch entrance. Hat has a wide brim and tall conical crown that bends at the tip — holds its shape without flopping. Matte black fabric keeps the look elegant rather than cartoonish. Comfortable enough for a full day at school or an evening of trick-or-treating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook Week \u0026amp; School Dress-Up\u003c\/strong\u003e: The archetypal wicked witch appears in dozens of fairy tales — Hansel and Gretel, Snow White, Rapunzel, Sleeping Beauty.

The dress is floor-length by design, so if your child is between sizes and you want the skirt to skim the floor rather than trail, size down. If they're tall for their age, size up for length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Can she wear this over regular clothes?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e The dress is cut to be worn as the main garment — fitted through the bodice and sleeves. Layer a black long-sleeve top underneath if it's cold, but the dress itself provides good coverage from neck to floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: How do I care for this? Is it durable?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spot clean or gentle hand wash. The hat holds its curved shape well — store it upright or hanging to keep the peak from flattening. Fabric is sturdy enough for active wear but avoid dragging the skirt hem on rough surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Are shoes included?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e No — the red sparkle shoes in the photos are styling only.
