This beautifully tailored suit with finely embroidered detailing is the perfect ensemble to dress your *own*stylish Bleuette!

This outfit consists of three pieces- a dress, jacket, and matching bonnet. I used a delightful *caramel* colored fabric for the jacket-a lovely blend of linen and cotton. Fully lined with gold silk, it is embroidered with couching stitch in a perfectly contrasting shade of raspberry. Fourteen tiny (antique) opal glass buttons grace the front opening. Two hidden metal hooks and hand worked loops provide the closure.

Underneath this smart jacket is an equally smart dress! I used a silk plaid taffeta for the bodice,and paired it with a skirt of linen/cotton-this time is a rich slate blue. The front bodice is embelished with tiny metal eyelets and a cotton floss tie. Underneath the turned back collar, is a plastron of off-white silk organza! The back closes simply with two metal hooks and hand worked eyes.

Her wondrous matching bonnet is Swiss Paglina and dyed wheat straw. Unlined , it is trimmed with paper carnations and vintage forget-me-nots. I finish my hats with my own couture label. Exquisite!
Buy with confidence when considering my designs! You will be delighted with the quality of my work. ~Kathy O'Malley

NOTE: Doll, socks and shoes are *not* included.

I love this one too. I love the hat, the dress, the jacket. The colors are very pretty. Oh my. Blessed is the person that got this ensemble.
