This item was released in Fall 2019 and retired at the end of the year in 2022. It replaced Julie's Holiday Outfit (which was sold 2014 to 2018), which had replaced the original Christmas Outfit (sold 2007 to 2014).
Christmas holds a special place in Julie’s heart. Whether she’s making holiday crafts with her mom or visiting the Fairmont Hotel to get hot chocolate with her dad and her sister, Tracy, she loves to dress up for the occasion. Outfit includes: An authentic ’70s-style pink velvet dress with rickrack and crochet trim, a mock turtleneck, and balloon sleeves that make Julie feel fancy, A black satin bow for her hair, A pair of opaque white tights to keep her legs warm, A pair of black patent Mary Jane shoes with real metal buckles.
Julie's Christmas outfit II $32
Released Fall 2019
Another great outfit from this release. I'm happy with the quality. It is a velvety material and very soft. I'm very pleased with the color choice. I'm not generally a fan of holiday outfits because they can only be worn at one time of the year, but this doesn't scream Christmas time. I love the color on Julie. I find bright pink looks great on a lot of my dolls, though not a favorite color of mine I do love it on the dolls. The only issue I can see being a problem is the crocheted lace not being placed correctly or the rickrack bordering not being straight or running into the lace trim too much as in mine and showing the skirt seam in some areas. In the AG picture you can see a definite pattern to the lace where mine is scrunched up. Not sure this bugs me enough to return though.
The shoes are nice with a decorative buckle and just standard ag tights, nice enough but nothing new there.
I appreciate the bow on the little scrunchie too.
