The doll has a lovely tosca hairstyle with side bunches. The elastic bands had deteriorated with age so I replaced them and now her hair is nice and secure. Her overall coloring is very pretty and her all original facial coloring is lightly blushed. She comes wearing her correct dress with blue flowered apron. Her dress is free of stains, holes, tears or odors. The pink taffeta skirt has not faded and is a nice pink color. The top portion of the dress is an ivory/white organdy that does show a little age at the top of the sleeves. Over the dress she wears her black bodice that still maintains its original black suede. Her blue apron is very clean and the colors are very vibrant, it has no stains, tears, holes or odors. Wendy wears a bonnet that matches her apron and it is also in great condition with nice vibrant colors. Under her dress she wears a light pink long slip and pantaloons both of which have nice stretch and are in good condition. Lastly she wears a really nice pair of black fuzzy bottom side snap shoes in very good condition. The box is original and correct but it is in poor condition as you can see in the pictures. All together this is a lovely doll that will look great in your collection. Please take a look at all my other Alexander and other vintage doll listings this week. Please take a look at all the pictures as they are an important part of the description. Thanks for looking and Good Luck!

Beautiful doll from 1953. She has her original shoes, stockings, slip with attached undies, original gown with purple velvet banner and pearl necklace and matching bracelet. The guide books I have looked at have the necklace and bracelet as original pieces. She is missing her original crown, so I have substituted an authentic contemporary Cissy crown. She has replaced gloves. I’ve also made her a rhinestone bracelet in exactly the same design as she would have been wearing out of old store stock rhinestones, silver braid and snaps.. The earrings she came with were replaced, so I found vintage store stock and remade earrings similar to what she would have had. There are two very small tears in her ballgown as shown. Her dress and slip have been gently cleaned with Perk and have been pressed. The hoopskirt is out of round, and this can be fixed, but I didn’t want to mess with it. Her dress has the original tag. Princess Margaret Rose is harder to find than Queen Elizabeth, and this doll has cleaned up and presents very nicely.
