When it comes to child size, there are three main age groups to consider: newborn, toddler (approximately 3 years old), and infant (approximately 5 years old). Below are the average heights and weights for children from 0 months to 5 years old according to the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare.
| age | height | body weight |
|---|---|---|
| 0 to 3 months | Approximately 50 to 60 cm | Approx. 3.0-5.0kg |
| 3 to 6 months | Approximately 60-70cm | Approx. 5.0-7.0kg |
| 6 - 9 months | Approximately 70 to 75 cm | Approximately 7.0 to 8.5 kg |
| 9 - 12 months | Approximately 75 to 80 cm | Approximately 8.5 to 10.0 kg |
| 12 to 18 months | Approximately 80-85cm | Approx. 10.0-11.5kg |
| 18-24 months | Approximately 85 to 90 cm | Approx. 11.5-13.0kg |
| 2 years old | Approximately 90 to 95 cm | Approx. 13.0-14.5kg |
| 3 years old | Approximately 95 to 100 cm | Approx. 14.5-16.0kg |
| 4 years old | Approximately 100 to 110 cm | Approx. 16.0-18.0kg |
| 5 years old | Approximately 110-115cm | Approx. 18.0-20.0kg |
According to data as of 2021, the average height of a 6-12 month old newborn is about 75cm, and the weight is about 7.0-10.0kg. It is important to remember that these are averages and individual sizes may vary. Unfortunately, specific measurements such as a newborn's arm length, waist size, and leg length depend on each individual child.
Children grow considerably by the age of 3. The average 3-year-old child is about 95-100cm tall and weighs about 14.5-16.0kg, so it's a good idea for parents to measure their child's arm length, bust and waist size, and leg length.
Once they reach the age of 5, children start growing rapidly. The average 5-year-old child is about 110-115cm tall and weighs about 18.0-20.0kg. As with other age groups, it's a good idea for parents to measure their children's arm length, waist size, and leg length.
Tips for choosing the size!
"I chose it because I thought it would look good on me, but it was too small and I couldn't wear it."
Be careful not to let this happen.
Before renting or purchasing a dress for your wedding, birthday photo, or home photo shoot, it's a good idea to measure your height, chest, waist, and foot size. This is a busy time for moms, but...
Also, children grow very quickly, so if you measure them too far in advance, the size may not fit on the day, so it's a good idea to measure them about a month in advance and choose your dress.
- A: Chest Circumference Measure around the widest part of your chest, usually under your armpits.
- B: Waist Measure around your natural waistline, the narrowest part of your waist.
- C: Dress Length: The length from the shoulder to the end of the dress.
- Measure your foot size from heel to toe. Even if the length is right , it may not fit depending on the shape of the shoe, so it's a good idea to buy a size a little larger .
Use these measurements as a guide to choosing your dress.
Be sure to check the size guide for each individual dress as different brands and styles fit differently.
When it comes to formal clothing, getting the fit right is even more important. Formal clothing is often less forgiving than casual clothing, so accurate measurements may be important.
Remember that children grow quickly, so it's a good idea to monitor your child's development and measure them every few months to ensure that their baby/kids' dress fits properly.
What dress size do you recommend?
By the way, in Doresharon,
Sizes 70 and 80 are for children between 6 months and 1 year old, so size 1
For children around 3 years old, size 3
Around 5 years old: Size 5
Keeping that in mind might make it easier to figure out the size.
However, since sizes vary from child to child, we recommend that you compare the child's measurements with the dress size for more details. Dress sizes are listed on the individual dress pages, so please refer to them.
