This Kids Princess Pearl Doctor Costume brings Julia Donaldson's empowering Zog character to Book Week — the princess who trades royal duties for a medical career. White lab coat worn open over a full-length coral-red polka dot dress, topped with a gold crown headband and toy stethoscope. Ready to wear, no sewing, no scrambling the night before.

The white coat features a printed "Princess Pearl" name badge on the chest — instantly recognisable for teachers and parents who know the book. Polka dot dress underneath has long sleeves and a sweet white collar. Crown headband sits comfortably without slipping. Stethoscope drapes around the neck for full doctor-princess effect. Lightweight comfortable wear for a full school day.

Perfect For

Book Week & Julia Donaldson Days: A natural pick for Zog-themed dress-up, Book Week parades, or any Julia Donaldson character celebration at school.

Career Days & STEM Events: Princess Pearl chose medicine over royalty — perfect for school career dress-up days, Science Week, or International Women's Day assemblies celebrating girls in STEM.

Imaginative Play: Costume-box favourite for backyard play, birthday parties, or any day your kid wants to be a doctor who saves the day.

How to Wear It

Pair with white tights or leggings and comfortable black shoes — Princess Pearl keeps it practical for her medical rounds. Tie hair back or leave it loose; the crown headband works either way. Skip heavy jewellery — the stethoscope is all the accessory she needs.

Parent FAQs

Q: What size should I order?

A: Check the size chart image for chest and length measurements. The dress is full-length and the coat sits knee-length over it — if your child is between sizes, we'd size up for a comfortable fit through the school day.

Q: Can she wear this over regular clothes if the classroom is cold?

A: The dress is the base layer here — not designed to go over other clothes. The long sleeves on both dress and coat keep her warm. If it's especially chilly, add white tights underneath.

Q: How do I wash this? Is the name badge durable?

A: Hand wash or gentle machine cycle, cold water. The Princess Pearl badge is printed directly on the coat fabric, so it won't peel. Air dry to keep the polka dots vibrant.

Q: Will she be recognised as Princess Pearl at Book Week?

A: Absolutely — Zog is a beloved Australian school favourite, and the doctor-princess combo with crown and stethoscope is unmistakable. Teachers and parents who know the book will clock it immediately.

Care: Hand wash cold, air dry. No bleach. Iron on low if needed.
