First Competition Costume/Dress?- Level Basics Skills 2

[lovemyskater]

My Skater (DD, has been asking to do a competition since her first lesson.  Well there is a club competition in March, and her coach says that she is ready and should be able to compete. Eek! I am not sure I AM ready for that! But she's been on the ice for 2 hours 3 times a week, and is working on Basic Skills 3 elements.

Now I get to scramble to get fabric in and make her costume/dress.  She loves the sparkle (as would any 8 yr old) but I don't want to give in and put too much on there.  I am thinking just a small about of sparkle (sequins?) across the chest and around to the back.  Or is more expected?

I would suggest something like this in her favorite color. Long sleeves for warmth (for a little girl, forget the bare shoulders and arms that make it look like a swimdress ), lovely but not to fancy, plus with sequins or an applique on the bust. Very cute without being stunning or inappropriate for her age.
