In all the years we've been involved in the garment industry, we've been amazed at the variation in sizing. While we can't offer you the assurance that our sizing will match what you're used to, you have our guarantee that if it doesn't fit, we'll replace it with a identical or similar garment on return of the original, unworn, unwashed and in good condition, within 30 days.
The sizes shown represent average measurements. If your child is a non-average body shape (it takes all kinds, after all), they may need special fitting which we don't do. But generally we've been able to satisfy most everybody regarding different sizes and shapes.
Cotton shrinks! We recommend you buy the size you need, wash in warm (not hot) water. We also suggest that these items never be dried in a dryer and always hung to dry. But if you insist on washing in hot water, or some lurking novice in your laundry room may do the same, you should probably buy the next larger size and figure on some shrinkage. These fabrics are sturdy, they can handle the temperature except for the shrinkage. But dyes fade faster with hot water, and some dyes will bleed onto the beautiful laces and trims on many of our dresses.
Ultimately, it's up to you to judge the right size to buy.
