School Pinafore Dresses by CVETKOV: Grades 1–11

A pinafore dress is the go-to piece of a girl's school wardrobe — pair it with a blouse, turtleneck, or shirt, and layer a vest on cooler days. Our catalog features school pinafore dresses for every age and height — from 116 to 170 cm, with extra room at the waist and adjustable straps.

For younger grades

Girls just starting school need simple fastenings and soft, non-synthetic fabric. Our first-grade dresses are made from suiting fabric blended with elastane — it holds its shape all day and doesn't wrinkle in a backpack. Choose between shoulder-strap styles and back-zip designs that are easy to put on alone.

For teens and senior students

The older the girl, the sharper the cut: a fitted silhouette, hidden zipper, a pleated or gored skirt. The dresses for senior students collection offers knee-length styles in dense knit or suiting fabric that keep their shape wash after wash.

Color and fabric: what to check before buying

Classic school uniform colors are dark shades that hide dirt and pair easily with any blouse. Popular picks include burgundy pinafores and grey styles — they need less ironing and fit the dress code of most schools. The fabric is dense gabardine or a bi-flex suiting blend: opaque, holds pleats, and breathes well.

We size dresses based on a girl's age and build — every product page lists chest, waist, and length measurements, so the uniform fits properly instead of hanging loose or restricting movement during PE.

Caring for a school pinafore

• Wash at 30–40°C on a delicate or hand-wash cycle for pleated styles;
• Iron inside out through a cloth to preserve the fabric's sheen;
• Store on a hanger — it keeps the dress from wrinkling and losing its shape.

What size should I choose if my daughter is growing fast?

Pick a dress with a bit of extra length and adjustable straps — it will last at least a school year, and the straps can be lengthened as she grows.

Can this dress be worn for PE class?

A pinafore is part of everyday uniform only; PE requires separate sportswear. But it's easy to take off and put back on in a minute between classes.

What fabric works best for autumn and winter?

For colder months, choose a dense suiting knit or brushed gabardine — layer a turtleneck underneath and a cardigan on top.
