I just got my Felicity today!
First, I need to talk about the meet dress. I'm turning my Felicity modern, so I won't get a ton of use out of it. I don't really like the fabric, it feels very thin and flimsy, almost like plastic, as mentioned in other posts. I think it would be better if it were made of, maybe, cotton?
Otherwise, Felicity is one of the most beautiful dolls I own. Her bright green eyes are tied as my favourite with Ruthie's beautiful gray eyes. I actually don't mind the bright, intense firework pattern, I think it's very unique.
In comparison to my cousin's PM Lissie, I do like the Mattel ones better, sorry PM lovers. Her hair, I wish was darker, like the PM Lissie, but I love it all the same. It's softer and shinier than any of my other dolls, and her pincurls are adorable. They do look a tad odd when her hair is down, but you can work around that by pinning the very front up. It's very long, and I can do quite a lot with it. Overall, she is one of my favourite historicals, and I'm very upset she's being retired. Farewell, Felicity, ye will be missed!
Overall, I give her an A+. (Excluding the meet outfit.)
