"I bought this outfit including the headress for my daughter who is 9 -- and it worked perfectly for her Christmas Around the World presentation on English customs in regards to Christmas celebration. She got an A on the costume part and this is special enough that she will wear it for Halloween in 2012 if she will still fit into it. I recommend ironing it before wearing and it is a bit scratchy, so an under tank would be good too. She also wore a slip."
