In the same boat, dd is not very obese but chubby. If you look for long enough and you are ready to spend, you'll find. There are plenty of high waisted flairy dresses in the Jewish stores. You may have to spend $100, and you will have to iron it, but at least she will look beautiful and all her body parts will be concealed.

High waisted doesn’t work for her, she needs no waist, no seams at all on the body. I found one Aline dress for $110. But she needs more. And will need a black skirt for end of the year performance, I’m going to have to buy a teen size and cut off like three feet of material from the hem Crying

There are so many chubby girls! Why no clothes that work?

My sibling has the same issue. She buys teens clothing and mends it herself.

Lulu has many clothing that work well for larger girls. Their clothing in general is on the wider side.

Wow, that's tough. The answer is that it's not a moneymaking industry as most children are not obese, they just wont sell enough clothes.

Maybe you should find a good seamstress and sew up some dresses and a skirt, no kidding. at least you wont have to search and search, you have your place and get it done.

Or take a sewing course. Skirts are pretty easy to sew up many high schools have the girls sew their own skirts for graduation.

I'm desperately looking for an aline dress for my 10 year old. Can you share where you bought?

That’s actually a good idea. It’s so not my type but maybe I’ll try. I guess if I can fix clothes myself it won’t be so stressful to find stuff. And there’s many years and seasons of shopping ahead Crying

In same boat.
I found some on next and AliPicks but it’s not easy.
My DD likes wearing her skirts under her stomach, she hates anything waisted or seams.
I’m willing to spend but so far I have not found much.

You can also check little rags and riches. I got a dress from there, the price was way more than what I would have spent but I had no choice.

I bought my 7 year old the biggest size xl size 14-16 Purim costume and cut a ton and it still wasn’t perfect, it cli have had more room but she really wanted the costume.

And she is overweight- not obese. She’s 4”3 inches and about 75-77 lbs. she usually wears around size 12

It’ll get easier to find stuff when she’s older. This is I think the hardest part. In 3 years or so you can probably start shopping at dept stores that have more plus size options and dresses and skirts tend to be shorter.
