Peggy Swing Dress – Jurassic Jingles
Vintage Christmas… But Make It Prehistoric 🦖🎄✨
Christmas dinosaurs.
On a fabulous vintage-inspired swing dress.
Because apparently this is who we are now… and we're embracing it. 😂
Meet Jurassic Jingles — our ridiculously joyful Christmas print where some very cute prehistoric friends have discovered the festive season.
They're wearing Santa hats, Christmas jumpers and scarves. They've brought presents. They've decorated trees. Someone has found the fairy lights.
And it's all happening amongst stockings, colourful dino footprints and festive goodies on the most gorgeous candy-pink background.
It's bright. It's playful. It's wonderfully unexpected.
And it's pure Love Daphne Christmas joy. 🦖🎄💕
Now put all that ridiculous cuteness onto the classic silhouette of our Peggy Swing Dress…
Ohhhh YES.
Meet Peggy ❤️
Peggy is where vintage-inspired charm meets fabulous everyday wearability.
Her classic shirtwaist silhouette features a functioning button front, neat cuffed sleeves, matching belt and a gloriously full circle skirt.
She's beautifully feminine, wonderfully swishy and made from our stretch cotton blend — perfect for an Australian summer Christmas.
And when you look closely and realise that elegant vintage dress is actually covered in tiny dinosaurs celebrating Christmas?
Even better. 😂
Pop on a petticoat and go full festive fabulousness, or wear her exactly as she is.
Either way, Peggy knows how to make an entrance. 💃🎄

🎄 Christmas 2026 – Created With You
This year, we're doing Christmas a little differently.
Instead of disappearing behind the doors of Sparkle Central and making every decision ourselves, we're bringing our Love Daphne community along for the ride.
You're helping us choose prints, sharing your opinions, voting, naming designs and — through your preorders — helping us decide what our final Christmas production looks like.
Because Love Daphne has always been about more than clothes.
It's about joy, colour, confidence, belonging and finding your people.
And this year, we're creating Christmas together. ❤️

1. How do I choose the correct size?
The best way to find your perfect fit is to measure a garment you already own that fits you beautifully and has a similar style to the item you're purchasing.
Lay the garment flat and take the measurements, then compare them with the size guide provided on each product page.
We also recommend considering the fabric type, as different materials fit differently. See our "Do Polyester & Cotton garments fit the same?" FAQ below for more information. If you are still unsure, please email us for more help.
2. Do Polyester & Cotton garments fit the same?
No. Different fabrics have different amounts of stretch, which can affect the fit.
- Polyester: Generally has more stretch and flexibility, giving you a little more room to move. If you're between sizes, we recommend sizing down.
- Cotton: Has very little stretch and is generally more structured. If you're between sizes, we recommend sizing up.
If you are not between sizes, we recommend choosing your usual size and comparing your measurements with the size guide provided.
3. Where can I find the size guide?
Every product has its own individual size guide, which can be found at the end of the product images.
As sizing can vary between brands and styles, we recommend checking the size guide on every product before placing your order rather than relying on your usual size.
4. Are the size guides exact measurements?
Size guides are provided as a helpful guide only.
While we do our best to ensure they are as accurate as possible, measurements are approximate and can vary slightly between different styles and even individual garments due to the manufacturing process.
For the most accurate fit, we recommend comparing the flat-lay measurements of a garment you already own with the measurements listed on the product page.
5. What if my size is sold out?
If your size is currently unavailable, we'd love to help.
Please email us at sales@lovedaphneretro.com or submit an enquiry through our Contact Us page, and we'll happily check whether your size can be specially ordered for you.
Please note that not all sold-out sizes can be reordered, but we'll always do our best to help.
