      I know that I saw a Simplicity one that looked simple yet cute.
      I would start there and see what you can find. It may be easier in the end to have a specific pattern with sizes instead of looking for a tutorial online.  Just a thought.

        Here is the link for the Simplicity pattern http://www.simplicity.com/p-2114-costumes.aspx.  You might also just make a simple jumper and make or buy the puffed sleeve blouse; that way she could wear it as a dress as well as costume.

          I made the Simplicity Dorothy Dress for my daughter when she was 5.  I thought the pattern was straightforward and clear.  I did have to do a bit of altering because my daughter is extremely petite and it was a little baggy around the chest.  The dress was ADORABLE and along with the red sparkly mary jane's from Target, a small basket and a "Toto" stuffed dog, she was a delightful Dorothy.
