Coat: A+
This is one of the prettiest coats AG has made! It’s made of a dark sapphire wool with white faux-fur trim. The velvety belt and top two straps may look like buttons, but they’re actually some cleverly designed Velcro. The cut of the coat is flattering and its roomy enough to fit over any of Caroline’s outfits. I love the length of it and think it’s perfect for a girl’s coat of the era. The front opens full with Velcro, so it’s easy to get on Caroline. It looks so warm and elegant!
Hat: A+
The hat features the same blue wool, white trim, and navy blue velvet as the coat. The velvet makes a bow this time. It looks nice and fits Caroline’s head well. I’m hoping it doesn’t mess up her curls, but it certainly seems warm on this cold, snowy day.
Good Value?
I bought this for the retail price of $32, and while I sometimes think that’s a bit much for a coat and hat, this set is definitely worth it. It’s elegant, it’s made of good materials, and it looks good on every doll that I’ve seen it on. Since Caroline wasn’t out for very long, I don’t see this make an appearance on the secondary market all that often, and I’m sure it goes for more than $32 when it does. Still, it’s a nice set and worth the price more than some of the other winter sets.
Overall: A+
I LOVE this set. I liked it so much that I got it several years before I added Caroline to my collection. It’s simply gorgeous and while the belt and straps maybe seem a little flimsy, the thick wool, thoughtful detailing, and flattering cut more than make up for it. It’s definitely a must have if you have Caroline…or if you just want a nice winter coat for a doll with fancy tastes.
