The Vintage Crochet Dress
A white crochet dog dress with an open weave that lets the breeze straight through — vintage looks, summer logic.
- Open-weave crochet keeps air flowing on warm days
- Barely-there lightweight feel
- Ruffled shoulder straps, a chest bow, and a ruffled hem
- Soft texture, gentle on sensitive skin
- Wear alone in summer or layered over a base layer
The Details: The crochet gives it the feel of something handed down, in the best way. On its own it is a summer dress; over a simple base layer, it carries well into fall.
A Tale in Every Wag.
Size & Fit — How to Measure
Measure your dog standing — tape snug, not tight, with two fingers of room for short coats. Chest decides the size: if it doesn't fit the chest, it doesn't fit. Length is forgiving — a little short is fine. Between sizes? Size up.

Garment Length is measured on the garment — it sits a little short of the tail base.

Returns & Exchanges
We are a small studio, and every piece is checked by hand before it ships — for this reason, we do not accept returns.
But the right fit matters. If the size isn't right, we offer one free size exchange per order, within 7 days of delivery. Here's how it works:
1. Email us within 7 days of delivery at support@perritale.com
2. Include your order number, a photo of your dog wearing the item, and your dog's measurements (chest, back length, neck)
This quick review lets us recommend the right size with confidence — and keeps exchanges fair for everyone. Items must be unworn (apart from trying on), unwashed, with tags attached.
Choose options
Every tail has a tale.
I have two sons and no daughter — until Coco and Cola came home to keep my boys company, and just like that, I had four children.
Coco, a white Italian Greyhound, became the daughter I never had: the pretty dresses, the little bows, all hers at last. On winter nights, I tuck extra blankets into their small beds and leave a tiny lion to keep them company till morning.
Every piece we choose has to pass one test first — Coco's and Cola's.
