I think this is beautifully designed. I have an actual one and this one is almost a perfect match. My only complaint is Samantha's arms dont seem able to hold it without aid. But it sure does look cute with her. farm8.staticflickr.com/7058/6858895029_a537c10b05_b.jpgMod edit to remove oversized, embedded image

I would give this outfit an A. It is soft and I love the pleats on the skirt and blousy top. The color & fabric set it apart from other Samantha dresses.

Im crazy about the Scenes and Settings. Very nice addition to the collection
True they are large and still out of scale, but with Samantha in the foreground, it appears ok.
I originally bought this at a flea market for my period fashion dolls. But now I have Samantha and am SOO glad I bought it when I had the chance. I do like her bedroom. What is interesting is when you photograph her in the rooms, it all blends and looks quite like the room is more 3-D or else the doll looks less 3 D. But anyway, the rooms are lovely.
I wish there was one of Grandmary's parlor.

I am going though this section and thought Id give my reviews on a few items since Im just collecting her stuff.
As to these boots LOVE EM!!!!!
And like a few have said, they go perfectly with the middy (sailor) outfit. In fact, that is what mine was wearing when I spotted her at a doll show. Needless to say I brought her home
Here is a photo I took my Samantha wearing the outfit with her One pearl button was missing on mine but it was easy enough to sew one on (got a packet of actual pearls from michael's crafts sometime back.) If anyone here loses their button and needs a replacement, LMK and I'll look for another in my box of buttons.
I found them easier to get on than Rebeccas boots with the velcro back. But yes, the pearl buttons look fragile and intimidating.
