It's cotton, not a stiff formal fabric, so she can sit down, run, and be picked up without anything crushing. The white reads dressy enough to stand beside the bridal party and plain enough to keep wearing all week afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInfant sizes\u003c\/strong\u003e — two-piece set with a matching panty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eToddler sizes\u003c\/strong\u003e — dress only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour\u003c\/strong\u003e — white\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFabric\u003c\/strong\u003e — 100% cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e — made in Hawaii\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel\u003c\/strong\u003e — RJC, Kole Kole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow This Fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bungee construction is the point: the dress gathers on elastic rather than fastening with a zip or a row of buttons, so it pulls on over the head and gives as she grows through the season. That makes it forgiving between sizes — if you're deciding between two, take the larger and let the gathering take up the slack. Cotton has a little body to it, so the skirt stands away from the legs rather than clinging in humidity. If you're buying for an infant, remember the set includes the matching panty, so nothing extra is needed underneath for photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeach weddings and vow renewals where she's walking ahead of the bride, baby lu'aus, first birthdays, family portrait sessions on the sand, and Easter. It also does duty as a plain white sundress for the rest of the trip once the formal part is over.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCold wash, tumble low or hang to dry. Cotton will take a warm iron if you want the skirt crisp for a ceremony. Wash it before the event rather than after a long flight in a case, and hang it the night before.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Shop MauiShirts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelling Hawaiian clothing from a Maui showroom since 1998 — 28 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWedding parties and matching family orders are the bulk of what we ship\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe'll tell you what's realistic for a ceremony date before you order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree shipping to anywhere in the USA and its territories — no minimum order.

It's white, it's made in Hawaii, and it photographs cleanly against sand without looking like a formal indoor gown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShe's between sizes — which way do I go?\u003c\/strong\u003e Up.
