Grade: A
This is a beautiful outfit. It's very realistic and isn't too fancy or frilly like some of the other outfits. I like it with the kerchief and apron, but I also like the dress just by itself. The colors are perfect for fall and looks so historically accurate.
The striped dress is very simple and subdued. The colors (pale green, pale yellow, off-white and gray) look great on my '95 Felicity. The trim is the same fabric as the mob cap and shawl.
Next is the apron, which ties around her waist and is open in the back. It's a thin muslin with a tiny flowery pattern.
The shawl is my least favorite part. It's an off-white cotton that's thicker than the apron, and although it looks like a square folded into a triangle it's really just a triangle. What I don't like is that it looks awkward tied around Felicity's neck, and it looks awkward hanging off her shoulders. I'm going to try putting it around her shoulders and pinning the corners in place across her chest, which looks pretty.
Last is the mob cap. This is also very cute. It's trimmed with a mint-green ribbon that is NOT the same color as the dress. It's the same fabric as the shawl and has two layers of trim around the edge (below the green ribbon).
