Starry Night Outfit (2002-2003)

I have been wanting this outfit for several years now and finally won it on ebay for a decent price. It's in very good shape. No snags or tears or anything. The only issue is the bow snap on the back. The sewing is loose so I had to be careful putting it on and taking it off for these photos. This outfit is a beautiful velvet with very detailed embroidery across the high waist. The socks are knee high, exactly like Kit's Christmas outfit socks. I like the plain shiny flats, they are easy to get on and the snaps are still tight and secure. I think I would like to see this dress with a pair of black tights though.

My daughter has this dress in a size 12 and I am hoping she will be able to wear it this year for the holidays. This is definitely a semi formal occasion type dress. More like a party dress rather than a ball gown or other organized formal.
