My 9 year old daughter needed khaki dress pants for her choir performance. I like their style and material as it doesn't wrinkle. However, she is a 9-year-old girl of normal height. It easily fits a size 10 in most things. The model 10 was WAY too tight in the waist and pulled up in the front and back. A size 12 fits the waist very well, but we had to trim the hem by almost 5 inches. I would have come back but we were short on time so I made it work. The material is excellent. The style is great. The waist is narrow and the length is long.
