This brand of dresses is thinner than a Disney dress, and perhaps that would lead one to think that is a cheaper quality, on the surface. The fact is, these dresses are made for comfort and are durable. We have several and none of them have ripped or torn yet. Disney dresses, and other princess dresses we've had, are itchy and uncomfortable, and not great quality.
These little dresses are precious and, having tried them wouldn't buy any other brand.
My daughter, and her friends, report that they are comfortable, and I like that they are machine washable.
Don't be dissuaded by the other review. It is subjective. If you are looking for yards of extra material, and over the top ruffles and stiff sparkly material, this isn't going to be your thing.
If you are looking for a comfy little dress, that your child will return to over and over again, this is it. And, they are pretty.
I especially like that they can be used as a generic play costume, or as a Disney character. In that way, they are way more flexible.
