I shopped around for this type of tutu quite a bit and I finally decided on this one for my 12 month old, 23 pound little girl. I ordered the 18 month size and it is slightly loose around the waist but otherwise fits perfectly and is absolutely adorable. The material is super soft. This means a lot with these because often times the cheaper ones are rough and scratchy...the last things you want on your babys soft sensitive skin. Buy this. You won't be disappointed.
