Some spectators didn't like the tween's dress. According to some, the piece of clothing was not age-appropriate. Several users expressed their thoughts by commenting under MGK and her daughter's picture, posted by the Daily Mail on Instagram.

"She too young to be wearing that sh--t," one wrote.

"She is 13. That dress is so not appropriate for a 13 year old," added another.

"Pretty girl. In her face, she looks 12 1/2-13 but the clothing has people thinking she's older, it's what they always do," noted a third Instagrammer.

However, MGK's fans defended Casie and her "beautiful" dress from internet trolls.

"it‘s literally just a plain black dress. It‘s not her fault she‘s that tall already and has grown features. I she supposed to wear pijamas on a red carpet?" one quipped.

"there is nothing with that dress. Covers more then shorts or swimsuit," added another one, while, a third user wrote, "Beautiful dress for a 13 year old she looks very elegant beautiful young lady dad looks very handsome."
