Measuring Your Flower Girl

Are you looking for a flower girl dress? Do you need help measuring your flower girl for the perfect dress? We know it's hard enough to chose one dress from so many fabulous flower girl dresses from our collection. The flower girl dress size is essential to finding the perfect dress and it's true, sometimes it can be confusing. Let us help you measure your flower girl with step by step instructions. We assure you that measuring your child only takes a few minutes!

1.) To get an accurate measurement, your flower girl should only be wearing undergarments or tight-fitting clothing. Measuring over bulky or baggy clothing will yield incorrect numbers.
2.) Use only actual measurements. Do not add an extra inch or pull the measuring tape too tightly over her skin. The measuring tape should sit comfortable over the skin.
3.) At NancyAugust.com some dresses have Size Guides and some have Size Charts.


Please note: A Size Chart features the actual measurements of the dress while a Size Guide is a general chart with a child's average length, age and weight with the corresponding general size garment you should pick.

 
Flower Girl Dress Size Chart
You will need to measure their chest, waist, and length. Please refer to the illustration on the left on how to properly measure your little girl for the perfect dress size.

Chest: Wrap the tape measure around her chest, letting the tape pass right over the bust line, under her arms and parallel to the floor.
Waist: Measure your child where the belly button sits. Some children have a slight pooch belly; you will want to measure the widest point of your child's belly.
Length: The length of the garment is measured from the top of the shoulder to the hem line. Starting from your child's shoulder, take the tape measure all the way down to see how long a dress will be.

You will need to measure their waist and length. Please refer to the illustration on the left on how to properly measure your baby girl for the perfect dress size.

Waist: Measure your child where the belly button sits. Some children have a slight pooch belly; you will want to measure the widest point of your child's belly.
Length: The length of the garment is measured from the top of the shoulder to the hem line. Starting from your child's shoulder, take the tape measure all the way down to see how long a dress will be.







Once you have your measurements, refer to the size chart and select the flower girl dress size that is 1-2 inches larger than your child's measurements. You want to make sure you give your precious angel a little wiggle room to dance in! Plus, a larger dress is better than a too-small dress. Most of our dresses have a adjustable sash waist for you to tighten at the back. This will also give your child room to grow so she can wear her beautiful flower girl dress more than once!

Flower Girl Dress Size Guide
If your product has a Size Guide, find your child's age, weight, and length. The length is a measurement from the top of your child's head to her toes. Then, refer to the guide to match your child's measurements with a size. Most of the products with a size guide are a work in progress and an actual size chart of measurements for the specific garment is on its way. As a general rule, if your flower girl dress has a size guide, remember that this is general guide and that all dresses will vary between style and cut as well as different designers.
