Size Chart for ALC Infant/Toddler Styles

Important Notes:

All measurements are in inches.
Remember - ages are approximate; all children grow at different rates and in different ways. Select size based on what your child is wearing.
These are NOT measurements of the finished garment.
Approximately 1.5" of ease is allowed in bust and waist width, but this can vary by dress.  Your personal preferences may vary. Typically - the larger the size girl, the more ease she will want.
Always plan on having your dress altered locally to perfect fit.  Dresses can be taken in or shortened by your alterationist but not let out or lengthened.
Never order a dress with measurements smaller than the intended wearer.
The way length appears on the wearer can vary considerably based on (but not limtied to):  wearer's posture, wearer's measurements and whether you add a petticoat underneath (which will make it appear shorter).
