Apolina - Verna shorts set - Milk

Apolina's lovely Verna short set is crafted in soft 'milk' cotton. The top has hand smocking to neckline and cuffs in delicate mint greens, and twisted cotton ties with tassels, plus naive floral embroideries to sleeve and pockets in lilac and pink. The shorts have a comfy elasticated waist. We love Verna’s cute retro proportions. An easy, pull-on style, Verna is perfect paired with socks and sandals for the ultimate holiday mood.

100% organic cotton (woven dobby-jacquard). Hand wash recommended. Ethically made in India.

Apolina is a modern embroidered children's clothing brand: exciting yet nostalgic, with longevity and a sense of craft. Designed in England, but inspired by travel, traditional handicrafts and the natural world, the collection's beautiful dresses and blouses have relaxed silhouettes so children are comfortable and can play freely, as well as ensuring an increased wear-time. Apolina hope each piece will be passed down to younger siblings, then kept by mothers as a reminder of cherished childhood memories, and passed to grandchildren as a future heirloom. 

The SS24 collection brings the mood of a group holiday in a beautiful old Mallorquín house – card games over breakfast, barefoot adventures in the gardens and late dinners in pretty dresses. Friends become like sisters and the magic of summertime childhood is all around. There's an eclectic colour palette of mango, seafoam and blue jay alongside subtle natural tones of dove, pale rose, milk and wren, plus fun, vintage-inspired prints convey the off-beat mood of the collection.
