Because of how popular this style was in 1904, many Victorian girls—including Samantha—had an outfit like this one: A middy dress trimmed in black braid with an anchor, a crest, and stars on the back of the big square collar. A sailor’s tam, or cap. High button shoes in black and white to complete her outfit.
I don't have the whistle or her summer amusements (yet).
Bronze shiny bo's'n's (boatswain's) whistle was phased out 2005.

This makes me even more excited for the Samantha comeback, as I never got her before she was archived. Love that midi outfit!!
ReplyDeleteI love this outfit! I was big into the sailor look in the 80s so when I got my Melody and saw Samantha's Middy Dress outfit was going to be retired I had to add it to my collection. It's the only item I have from Samantha's collection. I do not have the whistle.
ReplyDeleteLove that Aunti Robyn was able to make a mini version for Snickerdoodle Samantha.
