It stretches across the chest and back, so a girl sits comfortably in her age size and still has room a few months later. If she's tall for her age, or if you want a second season out of it, go up one — the knee length simply becomes a mid-thigh length as she grows. Strapless holds because the smocking grips; the shoulder ties are there for reassurance and for church.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlower girl duty at a beach ceremony, family photos on the sand, resort dinners where shorts won't do, and the whole stretch of a summer holiday when you want one dress that handles a pool, a car seat and a restaurant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCold machine wash, tumble low or hang.
