Melody Valerie Blue Summer Dress

Last but not least from the Melody Valerie Couture March 27th releases is this "Summer Breezes Dress" being modeled by Kit. Ok, so the dress is obviously not from the 1930s and is probably a contemporary design. However, I'd like to think it might work for the 1940s.

The Etsy store listing for the Summer Breezes Dress features the model "Lisette" wearing the dress. Of course, in reality, she was originally the AG Emily doll. Hence, the reason I seem to be associating this dress with the 1940s. Once we get some 1940s dolls in Badger's Wood, maybe this dress will belong to them.

Penny does own the AG Molly doll but she lives with her mother in another state. This is why she is never shown in our photo shoots. She is keeping grandma company. But our Wish List does contain the Emily doll and two dolls that will become Linda Rinaldi and Susan Schapiro (Molly's friends). So someday we'll need a whole bunch of 1940s clothing for our 4 girls.

What was I talking about?

Oh yeah! The Summer Breezes dress is made out of the softest blueish periwinkle fabric I have ever touched. Kit wanted to keep it on long after the photo shoot was over. (She was petting the soft fabric.) With the double-layer skirt portion of the dress and the large white appliqué bow, this dress is yet another example of the unique designs coming out of the MVC studio.

Kit says we have to all go out and have a summer picnic soon. Little does she realize it is still 34 degrees outside!
