Ella is going to be a flower girl in DH's cousin's wedding in October, and his Aunty in Hong Kong is buying her dress over there. It is cheaper there than in Aussie where the wedding is.
She has emailed us 2 size options and I am not sure which would be the best to buy. Aunty is worried about her having a growth spurt in the next 2 months and the smaller one not fitting...
Ella's measurements:
Shoulder to shoulder: 27cms
Height heel to shoulder: 69cms
Waist: 52cms
Dress measurements:
Option 1: Shoulder width: 25cms(sleeveless)
Length of dress: 58cms
Width around waist: 56ms
Option 2: Shoulder width 25cms(sleeveless)
Length of dress: 63cms
Width around waist: 61cms
Hmmm the first option already seems a bit short for a flower girl dress but she's a bit skinny! Does it have a tie waist? If it doesn't you'll have to stick with the smaller option cause the other one, that big around the middle, would look awful!
My inclination would be to go for the bigger one - as it will be easier to take it in, than to try and up-size something that might be too small (and yes I would be more than happy to alter it for you if needed).
