This review is for the 'Floral Pajamas" set. I purchased these on 3-3-2013.
Pajama set: These are a two piece set. There is a top and a pair of full length pant style bottoms. And, a pair of matching slippers.
The fabric is a good weight cotton. It is strong, polished cotton and pretty thick.
The printed pattern is a light yellow and light blue plaid on white. In the center of the plaid boxes are small dark blue rosebuds.
The overall effect is very pretty. The trim is made of a dark blue cotton piping, simular to the d. blue rosebuds. Also, there are dark blue satin bows as decoration.
The Top: The top reminds me of a shift. The sleeves are 'cap'-style ruffles. The decoration includes the curved/rounded inset at the sholders. This was popular in the early 1940's.
The neckline is straight across and has a small ruffle along the top. A d.blue bow is centered on the middle of the neckline.
There are two rounded pockets with a gathered ruffle. This has elastic and gives slightly. They have the same dark blue trim around them and d.blue satin bows. The back has a velcro attachment.
The Bottoms: These are well made. They are pants with an elastic waist. They fit very well. Molly can sit-up in them. The waist is high enough for her. There is a dark blue cotton piping trim at the cuff of the legs. Which is a very nice finish.
The Slippers: Cute Blue Mules, with and elastic back for fitting. I like the style, they have a seam on the top, and look realistic. They fit well too. I'm not happy with the small "kitten" heel. I know Molly would not have had these heels. But, I'm sure this is made for kids, as well as adult collectors.
Overall: A+
I am very well pleased with these PJ's. They are the 'Summer" PJ's Molly needed. I am the most impressed though, with the fact that they (AG) made sure that the "Plaid" matched up with the pieces on all of the top and bottom seams! That is hard and very nice. As well, the plaid is on a bias. Which means that there is a lot of care put into this outfit.
