This outfit was released in 2017.
Nanea feels very grown-up in this special hula costume that has a long train for slower dances. She wears it to perform at the USO. This set includes: A holoku, a long, formal dress, A maile lei, or lei made from maile leaf, worn for special occasions, A faux-orchid hair clip.
Nanea's Holoku dress is a beautiful formal dress. It is made from a very thin material. It is a beautiful plum color with lighter purple orchid flower print. It is a ruffle along the neckline and ruffle along the bottom of the dress. I like that it has an off the shoulder look. It has a long train, that makes it unique from other dresses. For me, it was a bit awkward to get the train positioned. The fabric is very thin, and I cannot get her to hold it and it does not flow to the side very well. I have seen others accomplish the look though. I tried my best to position it. The dress has velcro and is pretty easy to get on. It was not tight on my Nanea, but may be on other older dolls. The dress also comes with a lei. It is made of fake maile leaves and plastic beads. It wraps around her neck and hangs down well. She is just barely able to hold it while wearing it. Lastly, it comes with an orchid flower clip. It is a pretty magenta color and stays in her hair well.
Overall this is a beautiful set. I love the colors and looks beautiful with her skin tone. The only down that I found is that the fabric is thin and the train is tricky. I'm sure she could possibly hold it if she had some tape on her hand.
