Valentine Lolita

Type of Doll This Outfit Fits: 1/3 scale doll (22-24 inches/60 cm).
Pattern It's Based On: One that's in Venus A. Dodge's book The Dolls' Dressmaker.
Outfit Description: The dress is made out of a mix of white cotton fabric and black cotton fabric that has pink and red hearts printed on it. A tiny red decorative button graces the collar. A pocket graces the bottom half of the dress. The dress is trimmed in white lace at the collar, sleeves, pocket, and bottom hem. The outfit comes with a necklace that has a heart-shaped charm that's cut like a gemstone and two small barrel-shaped beads. (The three charms came on an adult-sized necklace that I found in Party City of all places but I had to re-string the three pieces on a different string in order to fit a doll.) The outfit also comes with a special small stuffed Valentine-themed Stitch doll that I purchased from a local Disney Store in January, 2005. The Stitch doll holds a red (with white lace) heart that has "You Will Love Me" embroidered in white thread on it. When you press Stitch's right shoulder, his cheeks flash a glowing red color for a few seconds.
