Dotty Dungarees is the ultimate destination for those seeking a taste of childhood nostalgia through stylish and timeless dungarees. The Hampshire-based brand was founded in 2013 by two mums, Alice and Georgie, who always had a love of the classic dungaree in its simplicity and comfort, and wanted to create something long-lasting which could be passed down through the generations.
With no prior experience in children's fashion, Alice and Georgie faced a steep learning curve, but their passion and determination guided them. After the birth of their own children, they saw the opportunity and the perfect moment to embark on their entrepreneurial journey. From brainstorming during lunch breaks to bringing their vision to life, everything fell seamlessly into place - from the name Dotty, a combination of their children's names, to the brand's distinctive identity.
And each style is thoughtfully made to last a good year, with adjustable straps and a generous turn-up that ensures longevity and room for growth. All dungarees have 100% cotton lining for comfortable exploring, and those up to 24 months feature a hidden zip for easy nappy changes.
After the success of their children’s dungarees, Dotty Dungarees' loyal customers were eager for their cute designs to be made for adults too. So, in 2022, the brand launched their first-ever collection of adult dungarees – which flew off the shelves! Since then, even more fun styles have been introduced, including a full range of denim and corduroy dungarees, each with a matching kids version so mums can match with their mini-me.
With each season, local hampshire business Dotty Dungarees continues to refine and expand their designs, ensuring they remain the go-to destination for beautiful and durable dungarees. Discover their latest collections and support local here.
We look forward to welcoming the winner to the cosy confines of our hotel after a day of exploring the New Forest in your bright and brand-new dungarees.
