Samantha is so excited to wear her new Peppermint Parlor Christmas dress (doll, shoes, and tights not included). She loves all the fancy ruffles, lace and ribbon that were typical of the early 1900's. Sam even wants to wear her new dress on her next trip to the candy shop or soda fountain. This Peppermint Parlor dress, modeled after turn of the century little girl's dresses, fits American Girl, Götz, Madame Alexander, Our Generation, or other doll of the same size and body proportions. The dress is made of red and white striped cotton fabric and trimmed with white lace and red satin ribbons and bows. In order to avoid snagging delicate little backs with Velcro, the back of the dress fastens with buttons and has a ribbon to tie at the waist. Although child friendly it is not recommended as infant clothing and a child under three could choke on the buttons and bows. Wash in cold water on delicate or hand wash and tumble dry on low heat or line dry. Feel free to contact me on MakerPlace with any questions. Thank you so much for your interest, and I hope you enjoy this dress as much as I enjoyed making it! *This listing is for the red and white striped, 18 in doll dress only.
