My little girl has decided she wants to get her baby sister a dress for her birthday present, my LO is a very girly girl and I thought it would be nice to get the same dress in a big size I could say was off the baby for her (I was going to get her a little present off the baby anyway) but I cant seem to find anywhere with the same clothes range in baby to 4 YO, I know its a long shot, but if anyone knows anywhere id love to know xxx ps.. yes I know im a drip, but I know my little girl will be amazed if I can manage to find the same xxx

boots used to be quite good for this, certainly in boys styles... might be worth a look

or somewhere like jojo maman bebe?

Next have clothes for 3m - 6 year olds in the same style.

Gap or Gymboree usually good for this.

The baby is not born yet, she is due at the beginning of august, so I was looking for a newborn size dress and matching one for a 4 year old, really struggling actually as most ranges for girls seem to be from at least 3 months... found yet more gorgeous dresses on gap but they only go up to 2 years in their "baby range". This is more tricky than i thought lol!! xxx

You could do big sister, little sister T-shirts (in Next, Mothercare, M&S) !! Have you tried Mothercare for the dresses? Good luck I had dd3 4 months ago, its gorgeous.

I had this problem when I wanted matching outfits for ds2 and ds3 for their christening so had them made very reasonably by a local dressmaker. If you did this your eldest dd could also have some input into the fabric etc.
