Kirsten is ready to be St. Lucia in her re-purposed white nightgown!
The dress itself is fairly plain, but that's just fine because it's not supposed to be frilly or complicated. The red woven sash is sewed into the back of the dress, and you bring it around and tie it in the front.
The sleeves are wide and open at the bottom, with a plain trim that is the same as found around the neck.
Her hair ribbons are the same woven material and same shade as the sash.
The outfit does not have shoes, but does come with red and white striped socks that are about the same thickness and feel as her summer socks... maybe a little thicker.
Overall, it's a very pretty dress. this is not one that I owned as a child, because my mother thought it was very plain and looked like a nightgown (which it was supposed to, according to the books). It is all red and white, and without the wreath is nothing special, but Kirsten looks adorable in just about anything!
Overall, I give the dress a B. It is a beautiful holiday display outfit, but is best with the wreath.
