La Coqueta’s Evelia Girl Hand-Smocked Dress is a masterclass in artisanal elegance. Crafted from lightweight, pure cotton, the bodice features honeycomb hand-smocking over a Liberty retro floral print, creating a textured, tactile effect that adds depth and sophistication. The floaty midi skirt is finished with a tiered, flouncy hem, while wide straps are traced with delicate butterfly frills. A square neckline trimmed with pleated frills completes the refined, heritage-inspired silhouette. Inspired by the styles Founder and Creative Director Celia Muñoz wore in Granada, each Evelia dress is brought to life by skilled seamstresses at our family-owned Spanish ateliers, who devote seven hours of hand-smocking to every piece, weaving tradition into each stitch. The Liberty cotton print in coral pinks, yellows, and blues is meticulously hand-rendered in London, drawing on an archive of over 50,000 historic motifs, resulting in delicate, painterly designs with a silk-like texture and vibrant clarity. Coordinate with a sister wearing the Flores Cotton Girl Shorts and Florentina Girl Top for those adorable, picture-perfect moments.

Layer up with La Coqueta’s luxuriously soft knitwear for cooler evenings, and pair it with buttery soft Nappa leather shoes in a range of seasonal shades like the Girl T-Bars and Girl Mary Janes.
