Ali express/Japanese school dress

My dd11 has asked for one thing for Xmas- a Japanese school dress ! I would say it's more of a sailor dress, and it's like the one Sophie wears in the bfg to meet the queen for breakfast!
I've searched high and low and have found one on Ali express. Does anyone know how they are for sizing and how the custom charges work?
Any other Japanese type presents would be great too!
Thanks!

I buy from Ali express all the time. Things do take ages to come (usually about a month) and everything is small! So size up at least one size. (including shoes). I've found the quality to be ok, probably primark type quality , but OK for the price. I've never had any customs problems.

I can't open that link it keeps bringing up pop-ups.
Have a look on ebay as well, there might be some already in the uk.

Sorry about the link! I will take a look on eBay. The dress has the measurements on ,are these usually accurate?

The 2 on eBay from uk sellers are going to be too short ,I think the sellers are not marketing them for pre teens by the look of the model !
