I will post my own pics soon, but for now I will review without them.
I received the Town Fair Outfit the year it came out, in 1997. I bought it just after I got Lissie as an alternative to the Rose Garden Dress. And I LOVE it!
The colors at first thought seem off, but really match well together! The best part is that the dress looks great with or without the apron! I really think this is my favorite of all Lissie's fashions. The original description said the dress was teal, and it seems to be on the darker end of that color. The gold trim really dresses it up. I think this may be on of the last dresses to have the slits for her Undergarments. My Lissie loves it when I can dress her in it! The colors really show off her red-hair!
As for accuracy, it's so adorable I don't mind them (if there are any). The only thing that does get a bad grade is the windmill. I saw surprised at its fragility when it arrived. It has stayed in the original box since then. Then box got wet some years ago so one the mills doesn't turn anymore, but I don't mind. It makes a great display item, but its lousy in the play value dept.
Overall : B-
The Dress gets a A+
The windmill gets a F
