You could always have a chat with your daughter, and tell her that "Some people might find it odd that you chose this suit. Are you OK with that?"
If she is, let her wear it! If not, help her pick out something else.
At least this way if she is teased, she will be prepared, and it won't hit her by surprize.

How'd it go? Was your DD the cutest kid in the class? Did she have fun?
Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

It was a great day! Thanks for asking. There are a couple pictures of her posted on my blog (link below), for any one who wants to see how great she looked.

She's a cutie, and looks very uptown chic in her outfit. I'm glad she was happy and it all worked out!

She looks like a little doll! I think she's sporting the Katherine Hepburn look quite well.
Too hot for the vest or jacket?

She is ADORABLE!!!! it reminds me of me for my pre-school graduation.... Something that my mom warned me was that I may be the only girl wearing pants.... that is all that she said. I told her that it didn't bother me, it was a wonderful day, except that my best friend stuck a jelly bean up her nose....
Good luck with everthing! it seems like she is a lucky girl with such a loving mom!
