    Can't find a grade 8 graduation dress?
    Help! Graduation is in 2 weeks for me and I still do not have a dress and everyone else does! It is extremely hard for me to get one because I am very petite in both height and weight, I'm only 5"0 and very skinny (I'm not anorexic or anything I'm just naturally skinny) so I don't fit in adult sizes even the smallest size which is size 0 its mostly because of how skinny I am so they are all either loose or low. I also don't want to wear a kid's size because they look very childish and I really don't want to wear those and I spent so many weekends looking for one already none of them fit! I feel like I'm never going to find one in time for graduation its so stressful and frustrating looking for one and I always thought if I was a boy it would be so much easier. All I have to do is look for a suit and they all look the same, at least similar. But looking for a dress is extremely hard. I don't know what to do I can't seem to find one anywhere that actually fits! I'm losing hope that I will ever find one.

    Buy a size zero. You can have it altered if need be. If it's any consolation, my daughter has the same problem. She is the same size and she is 20.

    Make that a ZERO - PETITE if you can find it bet its really close, a junior will be long in the torso..... My wife is just a tiny bit shorter than you... and for a long while she wore a zero petite.
