Burgundy Tulle Velvet Long Sleeve Flower Girl Dress With Black Sash

Colour story / 01

Burgundy, with a Black Accent

Rich burgundy and a contrasting black sash give this flower girl dress a distinctive graphic identity. Velvet brings depth to the look, while the tulle skirt introduces a lighter finish.

The silhouette / 02

Defined at the waist

The black sash creates a clear visual break between the bodice and the flowing skirt. Its contrast gives the waistline a more graphic appearance and makes the two-tone styling the defining feature of the design.

Long sleeves and a scoop neckline balance the ankle-length A-line shape, giving the dress a composed look for a formal wedding party.

For the ceremony

Formal without excess

The long sleeves and ankle-length skirt give the outfit a more covered finish, suited to traditional church ceremonies and formal family photographs.

For the reception

A clear waistline

The sash remains the key styling feature, so keep additional accessories simple and allow the colour contrast to do the work.

For cooler dates

Layer with care

A short black or neutral occasion cardigan can complement the sash. Check the sleeve fit before choosing a layer to wear over the long sleeves.

How can a black sash be coordinated with a burgundy wedding colour scheme?

Repeat black in one or two small details, such as shoes or a hair accessory, rather than adding several dark accessories. Burgundy flowers, ivory outfits and soft greenery can help the black accent feel intentional within the wider wedding palette.

Would this dress suit a black-tie or evening wedding?

The burgundy-and-black combination has a more formal visual character than a pastel flower girl outfit. Its long sleeves and ankle-length skirt make it worth considering for an evening celebration, particularly when the adult wedding party is wearing darker colours.

What should I check when choosing shoes for an ankle-length flower girl dress?

Check the finished hem against the shoes the child will wear on the day. The skirt should not drag underfoot or catch beneath the heel. A low, stable shoe is often easier for a young attendant to manage during a long ceremony and reception.

Will the black sash work with burgundy bridesmaid dresses in a different shade?

It can, but compare the fabrics in daylight before finalising the outfits. Burgundy shades can vary between wine, berry and red-toned finishes. Black accessories can help connect the flower girl look to the wider party even when the burgundy shades are not identical.

What measurements are important for a long-sleeve flower girl dress?

Chest, natural waist, sleeve length and height are useful when checking the fit. Sleeve length matters because the dress has full-length sleeves, while the child's height helps assess where the ankle-length skirt will fall. Use the size chart rather than relying on age alone.

Can I request custom measurements if standard sizing is not suitable?

The product page lists a custom-made option for an additional £15. Take the measurements carefully and confirm any special fit requirements with customer support before placing the order.

How early should I order a made-to-order flower girl dress?

Allow for the listed 10–18 business days of tailoring plus 2–8 business days for shipping. The rush option lists 7–10 days for finishing, but delivery time still needs to be considered. Ordering early also leaves more room to check measurements and prepare the complete outfit.
