Here is Cissy’s lavender taffeta dress and matching bolero jacket with straw hat #2143 from 1957. The pieces are crisp and do not appear to have ever been washed. The dress and jacket do look to have been ironed but done very nicely. This taffeta fades so easy but I do not see any evidence of uneven coloring to either piece. I do not see any staining. Only the couple of little black dots near the hem in one spot I have shown in the photo. The dress is missing three of the lilly flower at the bodice but not extremely noticeable. These old silk flowers are becoming very delicate. All snaps are in place and tight. You can see the tag in the photo. The hat is in nice condition. The flowers look mostly complete. There looks to be a few lilies missing in two spots. You really won’t notice unless looking closely. There is also a hole in the netting of the hat so it is not perfect. The netting shows in the book up around the hat and not over her face. So again, you really won’t notice it. The slip is not a Cissy slip but it is vintage and goes nicely with the outfit. With all the little things said, this will display nicely on a doll. After all this time, how many outfits will remain mint I wonder. Please check the photos carefully and ask any questions.
