And it is GIANORMOUS! I ordered a 90 and it's tunic length on Sophie.

Should I exchange it? I kind of want to get a lot of use out of it considering its cost (even with the code), but it's really long.

The sweater is just magnificent though!

If it is TUNIC length (i have not heard that word in FOREVER) then i would say get the 80... better to enjoy them now even if for a short time. And one day Amelia can wear it too so you would get a lot of use out of it!

Girlie-

I will take a pic tomorrow. She's already in her jammies for the night and I don't want to cause any uproars ;).

My friend just received this sweater for her DS...she said that it is BEAUTIFUL...but didn't say anything about it being super huge...do you think that it is mis-marked?? Have you been ordering 90s and this one seems out of whack?? I would call cs and ask...and if it is a true 90, then I would definitely get the 80..she will still get the wear out of it. Let us know what you find out!

This is the first time I ordered 90s. She fits pretty well in the 80s, but I'm afraid that with another growth spurt, she wouldn't get enough wear out of it.

I also got two zippers in 90 and they are HUGE! She still has a bit of room in her 80s, I thought they would be just a little larger. There is a really, really significant difference in the Hanna sizes!

I will take pics and post tomorrow so you guys can tell me what you think.

I'd love to see a pic of Sophie and what the sweater looks like IRL. I can't really tell if I like it from the website, and I still haven't got my catalog yet!

I'm so jealous! Even with the code, it's still out of my reach but I'm dreaming about it...

Just a note, Dante is comfortably in the 90s only now at 36/37 inches and topping out at 30 pounds. You're right there is a HUGE difference between 80s and 90s. He was out of the 80s late last winter, but not actually *in* the 90s until a few months ago. If you want Sophie to wear it, I'd say go for the 80s.

Have fun!

We got ours too. It's absolutely beautiful. I got it in a 70 and it seems about on par with the other size 70 stuff I have in the closet. She's in 60's now, but I'll have to try the sweater on her and take a pic because sweaters can be a little big.
