Maxi dress for 13 year old DD ?

DD1 will be 13 in a couple of weeks and really covets a maxi dress. She is 5'2 and tends to fit size 8 petite clothes or age 3/14 in teen ranges but we have had no luck so far in finding maxi dresses short enough for her not to trip over. Most of them also require distinctly more bosom than she has actually got.
She doesn't want anything strapless or lowcut, just a pretty daytime maxi dress.
Pretty please, can anyone point us in the direction of anything suitable?

I am a similar size and found one in Peacocks. I looked like shit in it though.

SOrry should have clarified that it was in the "teens" section. A pink and white one.
