This set was released in August 2022.
Claudie loves trying on all the fancy accessories that belong to Selma, a glamorous jazz singer who also lives at Miss Amelia's boardinghouse. Includes:
A double-layer necklace with white beads
A metal closure and a beaded fabric bag with drawstring closure
A blue paperboard hatbox with a lid that lifts off and a cord handle
A black felt top hat with a satin hat band
Black tights
A gray faux-fur stole
Claudie's Jazz Performance Outfit - $45.00
Includes: Hat Box, Black Hat, Double-strand Bead Necklace, White Drawstring Purse, Black Tights, Grey Fur Stole
We went down on release day to American Girl Place in Easton (Columbus, Ohio), arriving about two hours after the store opened. Claudie only had three closed display cases (one large one for all her outfits, one cute display near the front door, and one showing her bed). That means we couldn’t actually feel/inspect anything, so this is a visual review! For a first, the colors on AG's stock photos (see American Girl website) are SPOT ON. What you see (at least on our three monitors) is what you’ll get!
The HAT looked like the same stiff felt as on Melody’s Meet hat. It’s never shown on the doll on AG’s website or in this display. We all agreed that it looked too small to fit on Claudie’s head.
The HAT BOX is very cute. It looks like a perfect display piece, but I'm not sure how it'd do with kids' play. (From looks, it kind of falls into the coated cardstock that Dollar Tree offers in their gift-box department, just for comparison, because they never offer hat boxes!)
The FAUX FUR STOLE looked nice and fit verywell.
The BAG, TIGHTS, and NECKLACE were what you’d expect -- just like previous AG accessories.
