The Believe Line from Castles and Crowns is a perfect match for Easter Sunday wear. The delicate smocked design portrays three empty crosses symbolizing the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. This is the true meaning of Easter and the new Easter dress symbolizes the new life in Christ.
Smocked Easter Shortalls
The three crosses have pale yellow details inside of them and there is a vine connecting the crosses. Delicate White piping frames the smocking insert. Shortall buttons with two small clear buttons at each shoulder. The shortall snaps at crotch and down legs for easy diaper change.
There are some smocked clothes of this design available on our eBay auctions today(click first link above) when I checked or you can check here at Castles and Crowns. Also, there is a link at the bottom of this post to the Castles and Crowns website if you prefer to buy retail.

Smocked Easter Flower Dress
Smocked designs on Easter dresses include smocked Easter Bunnies, smocked Easter Baskets, and smocked flowers like the beautiful green gingham dress shown above. This simple flower design in green and yellow is the perfect compliment to this pastel green bishop dress. Notice the subtle green blue embroidery thread used to outline the pleated area. The color adds just enough complimentary hue to cause the flower design to stand out brightly.
As you can surmise, I think smocking is a beautiful art form. It deserves to have this whole website showing examples of the creativity of smocking art. Smocking designs and practical use has evolved to be especially suitable for children's clothing and comfort.
A dress like this will be perfect for Easter Sunday, but it is also a great dress for any Sunday through the spring and summer months. Smocked Easter dresses can be worn for any special occasion like a birthday party or family portraits, or even a wedding.
The smocked bishop dress is the all time favorite, but dresses with smocked inserts are equally appealing.
