PREORDER - Pixie Swing Dress - Not So Silent Night - Estimated dispatch date 5th of November
Pixie Sweetheart Dress – Not So Silent Night
Sweetheart… With a Dark Side 🖤🌹💀
Pixie has always been our romantic one.
That beautiful sweetheart neckline.
Her feminine silhouette.
Her gorgeous vintage-inspired shape.
But this Christmas?
Pixie has gone a little gothic. And we are OBSESSED. 😍🖤
Meet Not So Silent Night — our gloriously dark Christmas print for the Sparkle Sisters who love the festive season…
just not necessarily the holly-jolly version of it. 😂
Set against a rich, moody deep red and black background, this print is filled with the most incredible gothic Christmas details.
Black cats tangled in fairy lights.
Ravens in Santa hats.
Bats.
Skulls.
Deep red roses.
Gothic wreaths.
Potion bottles.
Candy canes.
A wonderfully sinister gingerbread man.
A Christmas tree decorated with roses and skulls.
And, of course, that incredible ornate Silent Night tombstone.
It's dark.
It's romantic.
It's whimsical.
It's a little macabre.
And paired with Pixie?
It becomes unexpectedly BEAUTIFUL. 🖤🌹
Meet Pixie 🖤
This might be one of our favourite combinations in the whole Not So Silent Night family.
Because Pixie's romantic silhouette brings out a completely different side of this print.
Her gorgeous sweetheart neckline frames the décolletage beautifully, while the fitted bodice and shaping darts create lovely definition through the waist.
Then her elegant box pleats open into that classic knee-length skirt, giving those deep red roses, ravens, black cats and wonderfully gothic Christmas details plenty of room to shine.
There's something about the contrast that just WORKS.
Sweetheart neckline.
Blood-red roses.
Black cats.
Skulls.
Christmas.
It's romantic Christmas…
if your idea of romance involves candlelight and possibly a haunted mansion. 😂🖤🌹
And we are absolutely here for it.

🎄 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. ❤️
And Not So Silent Night is such a perfect example of why that matters.
Christmas joy doesn't have to look the same for everyone.
Maybe your Christmas is bright rainbows.
Maybe it's gingerbread and candy canes.
Or maybe you looked at the skull-covered Christmas tree and thought…
"FINALLY. THESE ARE MY PEOPLE." 😂💀🖤
Welcome. We've been expecting you.

If you're between sizes, we recommend sizing up in our cotton styles.
For the most accurate fit, compare the individual size chart provided in the product images with a similar garment you already own and love.

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.
What is a Pre-Order item?
Any product marked PRE-ORDER is not currently in stock and is ordered specifically for you once your order is placed.
