My princess of a daughter has suddenly decided that she really loves shorts after refusing to wear anything that doesn't twirl for 6 years. I'm rushing to make her a couple of pairs before the school holidays.
Could anyone advise on sizing for the class picnic shorts? She is measuring a 23'' waist and 25'' hip. The size charts suggest a size 7 for waist and size 5 for hip. How much flare do they have? Can I get away with just cutting a 7, or a 6 with size 7 length and slightly longer elastic?
She has always fitted O+S like a glove for her size, but she has suddenly gone all leggy. This is the first time I've really had to think about sizing!
