The answer is a size 8, and here's why. Boy's sizes on this shirt track the age of the boy, and children grow between the day you order and the day the photos happen. After many years of selling boy's shirts and cabana sets, we tell everyone the same thing — take the next size larger if you're in any doubt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizes\u003c\/strong\u003e — 2, 4, 6, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18 (sizes reflect the boy's age)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColours\u003c\/strong\u003e — Black, Red\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFabric\u003c\/strong\u003e — 100% rayon, made in Hawaii\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel\u003c\/strong\u003e — R.

That doesn't mean the shirt runs small; it means a boy who fits it in March may not fit it in August. Go up one size unless he's small for his age or you need it to fit this weekend. Rayon hangs softly rather than standing away from the body, so a size up doesn't look oversized on a child. Call our toll-free number if you're stuck between two sizes and we'll talk it through.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeach ceremonies where he's walking down the aisle, luau dinners, Easter and Christmas family portraits, and the long flight over — rayon doesn't hold heat the way a stiff cotton shirt does. Black works for evening receptions; Red photographs well against green foliage and white sand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCoordinating Pieces\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree women's pieces are cut from the same Island Bird of Paradise Panel fabric: the Panel Fitted Blouse, the empire tie front, and the Smocked Tube Dress. Mother and son, or mother, daughter and son, in one print — order them together so the runs match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCold wash or dry clean, hang to dry, warm iron if needed.
