This one is cut for that in-between stage: halter neck, empire waist that sits above the natural waistline rather than clinging to it, and a sash that ties at the back so she can adjust it herself. Cotton, so she can wear it in the heat and it can go straight in the wash afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e — 14\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour\u003c\/strong\u003e — Pink, with a matching Pink sash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeckline\u003c\/strong\u003e — halter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWaist\u003c\/strong\u003e — empire, with contrasting sash and tie sewn in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClosure\u003c\/strong\u003e — back zipper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFabric\u003c\/strong\u003e — 100% cotton, made in Hawaii\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel\u003c\/strong\u003e — Kole Kole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow This Fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn empire waist is forgiving through the middle — the skirt falls loose from just under the bust, so it suits girls who are growing quickly and don't want anything fitted through the tummy. The sash is sewn in and ties at the back, which lets you snug it up or leave it easy. The halter neck means no sleeves to fight with, but check her shoulders are comfortable with a bare-shoulder cut before the event. Zip up the back, so she'll want a hand with it the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJunior bridesmaid and flower-girl duties at a beach wedding, a school May Day programme, a family luau, or a Hawaii holiday where she needs one dressy thing that isn't hot to sit in.

Hot water and a hot dryer will pull a little shrinkage out of it — keep both cool and it holds its shape and length.\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\u003eWe stock girls' sizes at the top of the range, not just the little ones\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAsk us a sizing question before you order and a person answers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree shipping to anywhere in the USA and its territories — no minimum order.

If she's already in women's clothing, look at our women's dresses instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan she wear a regular bra with a halter neck?\u003c\/strong\u003e Not comfortably — straps will show at the shoulders. A strapless or halter-style bra works better under it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it dressy enough for a wedding?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes.
