This limited edition outfit was released in 1997.
In the 1940s, tennis was considered a healthy form of exercise for girls and boys. You can help Molly practice her backhand! First, dress her in a sporty three-piece ensemble of cool, striped cotton chambray: a camp-style blouse, shorts, and a flared overskirt. Tie her red tennis shoes on tight, and tie her braids on top her head with a striped ribbon so she’s ready to play. Molly’s tennis racket comes with a monogrammed cloth cover — there’s a pocket on the outside to hold her tennis ball.
We got this one because I (and my mom) have always been really into tennis. I played for like 8 years, and this was the first tennis outfit they made.
The Good: Colors are nice. It's a nice contrast to Molly's normaly red-white-blue, and I like the light stripes. There's 3 pieces to the outfit: Top that really buttons up, skirt that also really buttons up, and the under shorts that velcro on the side. The little buttons that really work are a nice added touch. The outfit comes with cute, cute little red tennis shoes, and a hair ribbon that matches the outfit's material. Also comes with a racquet, racquet case, and random ball that's huge, and weird. Most everything is really cute.
The Bad: Unless tennis balls were huge back in the 40s, the ball is totally not the right size. They do this with the modern balls, too, they're about half the size of the racquet, lol.

I have this outfit. I don't have the tennis ball, but I can live without it. My Molly is wearing it now.

My Molly likes to wear her red tennies that came with this outfit with her camp uniform and her hula outfit! She also wears the cute striped shorts under her hula skirt.

MLO $28.00 Limited Edition 1997
Molly's tennis outfit is hard to find, especially with all the pieces, but adorable!
Grade: A
This is a really cute set for Molly! I don't have the white tennis ball. I also use the shorts under Molly's Hula Skirt for Halloween. The wood racket is nice but the wrap is coming off the grip on mine. The picture shows white ankle socks but mine didn't come with them and the catalog description doesn't mention them.
