The tea party outfits have never been one of my favorites and I wasn’t planning to add them to my collection. However, a discounted price and the “purpleness” won me over. The pieces also have some mix and match potential.
The tea party dress set is my least favorite of the two tea party outfits. The set includes a green t-shirt, purple jumper, headband, shoes, and tea party book.
Green T-shirt: The T-shirt is definitely the highlight of the set. I really like it when AG includes plain t-shirts, though the light green ones are beginning to feel a little redundant. This shirt is a couple shades lighter than Sonali’s and the one from the artist outfit. The cut is also a little boxier than the 18” ones and the sleeves are a little tighter. However, it still fits the full-sized dolls.
Jumper: The cut and the pleats are alright, but something about the design seems a little off. Perhaps, it would look better if skirt had one more tier. The flowers are also horrendously tacky in my opinion. They are large and poorly placed. Then again, I’m not a flower person. The jumper fastens with snag-less Velcro. It is a little short on the 18” dolls and doesn’t look right with tights. Therefore, my 18" dolls have been wearing it with capris.
Shoes: These shoes are in the running for worst PC/AG shoes ever. They are made of cloth, Velcro, and what seems to be cardboard. The shoes do not fit the 18” dolls very well. They are too small. The shoes fit okay on the bittys, but there are still evident design flaws. Also, each shoe has a tag that sticks out like a wing.
Headband: AG has yet to perfect doll headbands. This one is no exception. It is too small and doesn’t sit well on the dolls’ heads. Also, the headband has an annoying tag that gives the doll the mad-hatter look. The only way to get rid of this look is to cut the tag. Again, the tag seems really unnecessary.
Book-The book is a typical Bitty Twin book. We read the story once, but probably won’t look at it again.
I’d probably give the outfit a C- or D+. It is one of my least favorite Bitty Twin outfits, if not my least favorite. I definitely wouldn’t pay full price for this set, but that’s just me.
