What a statement maker! With its timeless form and striking knot collar, the Bordeaux makes style look easy. Dress it down with the peplum length or use it for a dressy evening wearing the vintage length. You’ll enjoy the versatility of the knee length too; it’s perfect for her to play in or wear on school days! Any way you make it, the comfort and twirl factor of the Bordeaux will be loved!
