I ordered this item for an 8 year old girl who wears a size 7/8 to wear to her 8th Magician Birthday Party.  She wore a white tee shirt with her name embroidered on it in red & black, a black felt top hat that I bought on Amazon and a pair of black tights. She looked spectacular. The tutu is really full and has a black and white lining.  The tutu came down past her knees and was loose around her waist but it fit.  Love that  I was able to put together a spectacular costume for less than $25.00 and that she will be able to wear the tee shirt and tights to school, the top hot for the next Dr. Suess day at school and the tutu for dress up whenever she wants.
