Released in 2008, retired in 2009 with archival.
Kirsten loves to wear this outfit for special days. It includes: A paisley dress with puffed sleeves and a full skirt. 2 blue hairbows to tie back her braids. A beautiful muslin apron that’s embellished with Swedish patterns. A pair of faux wooden shoes her father “painted” with traditional designs.
The dress is really pretty in its simplicity if you were looking for a flamboyant dress you might want to look elsewhere. The apron is nice too a printed pattern but nice anyway. I was really looking forward to was Kirsten finally getting wooden shoes something to show her swedish heritage. I knew going into buying the outfit the shoes were not going to be real wood so when they came plastic I wasn't disappointed. They said it was faux wood. Is that want they call it? I call it plastic but call it what you wish. They skimped a little on their research though. From what I heard the wooden shoes went over the regular shoes which is understandably a mistake I could live with. What I can't seem to stomach is the fact that they don't go over her socks either. I had to remove Kirsten's sock before I could get the shoe on..wooden shoes over bare feet...ouch.
