Unlike skukla, I got my outfit with the sash but without the rebozo. I love the camisa, it is so pretty with the embroidery on the yoke and the red overcast stitch on the edge of the sleeve. It makes a nice change from all her plain white camisas. The colors are very pretty on Josefina.
On the negative side, I find the pattern on the skirt a little large in scale, but it does work visually. As others have said, the skirt seems a bit long. Lastly, the flowers on the skirt are sort of a purple red, a plum while the ribbon between the patterned part and the cream part is a burgundy. The red embroidery is another shade of red entirely. Not a big deal, but why didn't they try to match the overall red colors, go either plum, burgundy or red. None of these things really impacts my overall love of the outfit.
Overall, I'd give it a A.
