Overall not bad. My 7 year old daughter usually wears a size 7-8 but I bought a size 6 because she is tall and slim. The bodice fits her well, but because of her long legs, it's a bit too short for her. She is about 50 inches tall and a tea length dress could be taller. Definitely not as close to the ankles as I'd like, but I'll have trouble with a lot of dresses on her. a ribbed belt that makes the dress look cheap.
