My DD10 is set on being Jasmine for MNSSHP and I have a problem she's at that stage where her sizing is non-existient. She is not over weight she is apprx 85pds and is about 4'9 but she has taken after her mother and is to my dismay getting the features of a woman way too early, so therefore all the costumes we find cut off at a large which is a 7-10. It's usually to small in length or won't fasten in the back, which is attributed to too much up front way to soon!!! :blush: This is having a major affect on her because in all reality she's 10 yrs old she is still little, but facing problems she shouldn't be even thinking of yet- poor thing.As a mother I want to keep her little and innocent forever but in reality I must address this hand we've been dealt and try to keep her in her age level with appropriate attire ,and help her to understand and not be ashamed of who she is how she looks. I have looked at the disney store,online costume shops ,walmartand target. I know it's not Halloween yet but most places you can order now. I've seen adult Jasmine but she's not exactly in the size bracket for those either. In the past I've just tailored them to fit but these Jasmine costumes where I need to remove or darn material to fit her is where all the embelishment is. And the area that defines the poofy legs and arms of the costume. Does anyone know where I could find a pattern for this costume or maybe one in her size like a teen size or a 14-16. Preferably one that's not an entire midriff bearing . I saw the smaller one and the tops practically were even with the waist. No offense to anyone's preference for their children. Only you can make the choice of what is appropiate and acceptable for your child but come on I have a 10yr old who looks 14 sporting a 34 A bra that is almost to little and 16 yr old boys are looking at I don't think she needs anything else to emphasize her assets. She's going trick or treating and she is my innocent LITTLE girl!! PLease Help...... :confused3
 
My step mom made one for my daughter for the MNSSHP last year. Maybe you could extend the material so it is covering more of her mid drift. Perhaps you could use the shear sort of material. What is it with clothing designers/lines/costumes these days they expect kids to grow way to early. Good luck with your costume search.

Thank you so much for the idea and the pictures cute kids...I think they don't think when designing clothes anymore...Have fun on your next trip!!!!!!!Tell your daughter she looked exactly like Jasmine and that is exactly the way my daughter wants hers.....Thank you again....
 
Have you tried Ebay for a pattern? I've been looking for costume patterns there lately - there is a pretty wide selection. You may be able to modify an adult pattern into a more conservative look if you had a pattern to start with that would suit her measurements. Good luck! :)
 

Most of the fabric stores have the costumes pattern books out already. Use an adult costume pattern and alter it to fit your daughter's needs.

I pray you have a great time.

PS: I bought a belly dancer outfit off ebay but had a time finding something modest. I didn't want my stomach hanging out of anything up front. I had to pay $$$ but it is so worth it.

See you there!

Thanks so much (re the cute kids)...i like them! DS was the bell hop from the TOT my SM made his costume too. You'll have a blast at MNSSHP, we'll probably do it next year for this year it's MVMCP! I can't wait! You'll have a great trip. For school Kaitlyn just wore a turtle neck under the short top.

Here's Braeden's costume:

My daughter's Disney costumes are sized XL 10-12, but we bought them at WDW a few years ago. She still fits into them, and she's 12 yrs old, 5'1", 81 lbs.
 
Thanks fellow Disney friends for all your great ideas so far they are all of great help..Hope you each have a great time on your next visit. :yay:
