This is a Boudoir Doll I've just finished from Antonette Cely's pattern. A very interesting pattern with some good construction techniques. I designed the dress, which has a rectangular skirt to make a lovely flare. It hangs beautifully and was inspired by my original 1920's Boudoir Doll. I made the dress from silk lining fabric over 20 years vintage. Same with the hat - recylcled. The red ribbon is at least 30 years old, so fitting for a doll of this romantic era.
Back view shows how beautifully the skirt drapes.
So Gracious, with such shapely legs and her bloomers just showing!
This Doll is 25 inches tall and sits well with her hands to prop her up for balance.
