Ackermans dresses
For little girls, ages 0-8 years, Ackermans has the tiered dress, the empire dress and the trendy skater dress. A multi-coloured tiered dress gives you the freedom to style it in various ways. Ackermans loves the neon yellow flowers in this floral design as they add a quirky touch to the print. The classic empire dress is the ultimate dress for little girls. Modern takes on this silhouette have cool graphic prints and ruche details. She will channel her inner butterfly in this garden-party-perfect dress. Little girls will rock the trendy skater dress! It’s super-girly but practical enough to run around in. Ackermans adores the pretty pink hue and rose motifs on this fairy dress and we bet she will too.

For teen girls, ages 7-15 years, Ackermans has the cold-shouldered dress, the racker-back dress and the tropical-print dress. A body-con dress with a cold-shoulder cut is a match made in fashion heaven. The bardot neckline or off-the-shoulder neckline has recently made a comeback in mainstream fashion. Style it with sneakers and you’re good to go. The racer-back dress is the perfect example of laid-back style. Wear it to the mall or on the weekend. Channel your inner cool chick with this vest-inspired dress. Pair with sneakers or sandals and you’re ready for those long summer days. Nothing says summer holidays quite like a tropical print. They have taken over the fashion scene for the longest time. Tropical prints have been updated with even more intense prints and gold foil detailing. This Hawaiian-inspired number will make everyone green with envy.
