<\/a><\/p>\nUp first is the talented Sharon<\/a> who sewed this lovely Garden Party dress<\/a> with smocking. It makes the perfect spring dress!<\/p>\n Sharon has such a knack for smocking. You\u2019ll remember her Smocked Pocket tutorial<\/a>, I\u2019m sure. If you are looking for more ideas on how to incorporate smocking onto Oliver + S dresses check out our Smocked Dress round-up<\/a>.<\/p>\n Jenya<\/a> created this sweet as can be Family Reunion dress<\/a>. It\u2019s absolutely darling and oh so pretty with that floral border print!<\/p>\n Courtney<\/a> is the creator this Hide-and-Seek dress<\/a> with a cute mini pompom trim.
