Not everything is like in the picture. My 7 year old wears a size 8. I bought a larger size 10-12 and it's too tight. The fabric is cheap and the mesh sticks together. I am extremely disappointed. I'll try to find another outfit somewhere else because it's junk. Even hand washing does not save this suit. I am extremely disappointed. I WOULD ADD. It falls off the part. There is a hole in the net.
