This is the first time I have felt compelled to write a review here. I received this set in the mail today, I've wanted it since it was released. Out of the box, I found the dress lovely. I love the style and the delicate lace around the neck. I have a white body Sam and the dress is much too tight on her, although I wasn't surprised. I managed to get it on her anyway. The tights were also very difficult to get on and I ended up putting on a pair of her older tights. My biggest complaint is that the dress is way too short. It looks ridiculous on her. I actually had to pull down her bloomers because they were showing! I am so disappointed, especially because I really like the style of the dress. Sam is currently sitting on a shelf and the length of the dress looks much better in this position. I love the shoes and I can see using these with other outfits. I think these would look great with her blue velvet dress. The only problem I have with the shoes is that Sam has difficulty standing in them. The bow is ok. I don't really have much to say about it. I really like the tea set but, like everyone else, wish it came with two tea cups.

This review is of the dress and shoes only. I intend to sell the accessories so I didn't want to take them out of their packaging.
I do not have Kit and Sofie (#41) is wearing this dress. It really is lovely and a pretty shade of pink (this is coming from someone who normally hates pink). The only thing that I would change about the dress is have the ruffles go all the way around and not have that strip in the front. I didn't anticipate liking the shoes because of the color. I initially planned on using white Mary Janes. I like the shoes but I paired them with a pair of white anklets. The anklets are fairly thin but it was like wrestling a bear getting the shoes on over them. Overall this is a great outfit. The accessories appear very nice too but I really don't have any use for them. Although, I know as a child I would have loved them. I give this set an A-.
