* 14-year-old Ahsoka Tano in StarWarsTheCloneWars wears a very tiny tube top--on a battlefield, no less. [[ExcecutiveMeddling George Lucas]] specifically requested that her original outfit be redesigned to show more skin. (And incidentally, George also intended her to be ''eleven'' in TheMovie, although canon puts her official age at fourteen.)

* At the beginning of ''SpringAwakening'' Wendla tries to convince her mother to let her continue to wear a dress that's too small for her as she's too innocent to realize why this is inappropriate for a pubescent girl in 1891 (her reasoning for wanting it is probably more of the clinging to your childhood variety).
