Packing an Ophelia Rose wildflower dress by hand in the Cora and Violet studio
Our story

Two little girls, each loved by their mothers

Cora and Violet is named for my first daughter, Cora, and for Violet, my middle name. It began with a hand-painted label I found in my late mother's sewing cabinet, from the baby line she always dreamed of making.

Ten years later, we're still a family studio in rural Ohio. Every piece is cut, sewn and packed by hand, which is why it takes a little time, and why it lasts long enough to be passed down.

"This dress and hat belong in a vogue magazine! It’s absolutely top notch high quality materials . It’s out of a fairy tale and whimsical and purely majical . It is even better in person omg! I can’t even explain how gorgeous and all the hard work that went into every thread and detail on the dress Impeccable out of this world ! I am going to buy more and more and more as I get the funds to do so !!!"

LOVED IT SO MUCH! Bought this for my daughters first birthday and she usually wears 18 month to 24 month clothing and the 1-2 year size fit perfectly. I loved that it was just enough WOW factor to really differentiate her from everyone as THE birthday girl and really have her stand out while also not being too over the top and uncomfortable. She was able to waddle around comfortably and even jump in the bounce house with no problem in it and i loved that since its open back it allowed for breathability since the party was outside. I lost count at the number of compliments she got and of course I HAD to let everyone know it was hand made getting even more WOWS. If you’re on the fence abt getting one of their dresses let this be the review that pushes you to because it was so worth it I have no regrets she gets to keep this beautiful dress as a beautiful keepsake forever ❤️
