BoltSense 1940s Purple Dress for Susan

Pockets! Yes, this dress has pockets! Penny's sister can never resist a dress with pockets in real human-size fashion. And Penny can rarely resist a dress with pockets in doll-size fashion. Must be some sort of genetic link.

This purple dress was purchased for Susan from Etsy seller BoltSense back on March 10th. It popped up in the Etsy search results with a Molly as a model in the cutest pigtails. She had Penny at first glance. Of course, we already have Molly- but we didn't have that dress. Add to Cart.

So Penny does freely admit that the under-yoke-layer and the trim on the pockets is made from a light pink fabric. Eeek! But the dress is overwhelmingly purple, so she said that it was ok. The tiny polka dots, scalloped yoke two-layer collar, white decorative buttons, poofy skirt pockets and big thick ribbon that ties the dress in the back really make this dress unique.

The full skirt and puffy short sleeves give a strong aura of 1940s and remind me of Emily's AG Holiday Outfit. But this is more of a school-worthy version, instead of attire for Christmas dinner at the McIntires' house. Plus the necklines are totally different. These are our justifications for owning both dresses...heehee.

Coming up next from Badger's Wood is a post on Etsy seller Terristouch's new take on American Girl's Kirsten Birthday dress. And it isn't pink! Hallelujah! Yes, we sort of asked her to make a version of this dress that wasn't pink. And Terri obliged our request! Such a sweet woman. Thank you Terri! Penny just couldn't bring herself to buy that AG version!

So next time see Cassie's new dress and apron here in The Doll Wardrobe. For now, look below for our beautiful Susan modeling the BoltSense dress! That girl looks prettier and prettier each time I add a post with her. And that silky smooth brown hair is just to die for! *Nora passes out from jealousy*
