Purple is the color of ROYALTY and CISSY looks amazing in this torso gown. Her Mermaid Look will be the highlight of your Cissy collection. She’s a STAR and she knows it! This is a phenomenal doll and gown from my personal collection. She is VHTF and the coloring on both the doll and the gown are wonderful. Please look over the photos carefully and READ the complete description. I strive for accuracy and do not use photo-shop in my listings. I will be listing various Cissy and Elise dolls as well as clothing and accessories. Your questions are welcomed, I can send additional pictures. DOLL: 1957 infused doll. Her body has a good balanced weight and she hold a pose well. She is photographed nude, balanced without a stand. Minor hip split high inside the cavity has been repaired. Note the staining on her torso. What’s interesting is that the dye transfer came from the thread used to stitch the gown, and not the velvet. No staining visible on dressed doll. This further verifies that the doll is original to the gown. FACE: I LOVE THIS DOLL!!! Some dolls speak to me and this girl has a lot to say!! Infused face from 1957. This girl has all her original features with blush having been slightly enhanced to even out fading to get matching cheeks.. Lovely doll with skin tone nicely complementing her blonde wig. No yellowing to original sealant. EYES: All original lashes. Eyes are a soft blue. WIG: blonde up-do with original hair ties on pullbacks and top of head. Replaced corded tie at nape of neck. Wig has not been combed out. It has good shine, not dry. SLIP: Original slip with attached panties. Waistband redone with vintage lingerie elastic. GOWN: Spectacular vibrant bodice in a rich purple hue with original rhinestone snowflake pin. Unwashed velvet with good nap and excellent coloring. Note the detailed construction. Built in satin bra panel. Satin lining has a good pink color. Flounce has been hand dyed to even out fading. Vintage corsage is a replacement. VERY DIFFICULT GOWN TO FIND! REFERENCE PAGES FROM CISSY! NOTES: My home is pet free and smoke free. As the dolls are 60 plus years old I cannot verify their previous conditions. You can rest assured that dolls I sell are odor free unless otherwise stated. CLEAN is important to me!! She will be securely wrapped and protected with tissue paper, plastic and bubble wrap.
