Ditsy Floral Claudina Mini Dress

Introducing the Ditsy Floral Claudina Mini Dress, a fun and flirty mini version of our iconic Claudia Dress. Brand new for 2026, we are excited to offer this new length, which, I think, adds to the sass of this chic dress! Designed exclusively for us as part of the Alexandra King for Deadly is the Female Collection.

The Ditsy Floral Claudina Mini Dress is a draped dress with a sash tie waist and balloon sleeves. These sleeves are shorter, like the Flutter sleeves, but have a gentle elastic at the sleeve hem for volume and drama, like the Bishop Sleeves! This new length is cut for maximum sass - finishing high on your thigh. It features a V-neck, which can be either modest or more daring, depending on how you tweak the gathers that run through the body of the dress. The pretty floral fabric is flirty and light, making it great for layering or as a romantic summer dress. The base colour is black, so it is super easy to accessorise. You'll also find hidden pockets - our all-time favourite finishing touch!

The Claudina Mini Dress perfectly combines our desire to look glamorous but still be comfortable! Cleverly designed, the dress is a one size fits most, up to a 42" bust. This is because the dress is cut with lots of fabric through the body, which drapes beautifully. The sash belt gathers everything in for an hourglass shape when you tie it at the waist. You can choose how and where you tie the sash for a fit tailored to you. This ingenious design means you can pretty much always grab this dress and throw it on!

The transformation from unflattering smock shape to luxuriously draped dress has to be seen to be believed! Take a peek through the photos to see what the dress looks like before the sash is tied. Tying the sash is easy - simply wrap it around your body once and knot it. Just try to ensure the sash isn't twisted and that it is lying flat.

Styling

More than any other version of our Claudia dresses, I think the Claudina lends itself to having fun with the styling. I love using my own belt or harness & think it looks great layered over tights or leggings.
