This lovely lady is a 1966 np with the developmental eye style. Her brows have silvered, but I think that just adds to her striking appearance. She is in desperate need of a cleaning and restringing (she's leaning against the wall here so she doesn't topple over) which will hopefully happen soon. I figured I'd share a few pictures first, and showcase a new outfit at the same time. Marti Murphy made the dress and coordinating shoes (and undergarments too, which you can't see). It is similar to the ribbon dress that I won in the Childrens' Fund Auction, but the fabric has been dyed.
I probably should have ironed the dress or at least made sure it hung nicely in all the photos, but I was preoccupied with keeping Jessica upright and trying to avoid bad shadows. This was one of the better shots otherwise though, so I decided to include it.
Even with sketchy lighting she's a very pretty doll in a very pretty dress.

She is really gorgeous Francine, what a very special girl to have!
A lovely girl, she looks to have a wide face?
The dress suits her and is a beautiful colour and style.
A simply stunning and beautiful wide faced Frido Np. Is she a Ballet girl or a Dungaree lass with a FCP?
Another lovely Ribbon dress. Lucky you.

She came to me nude with no hints about her past life. In her present life she is my special playmate. :-)
She is stunning Francine, you are so lucky to have her! She really is quite charming!

Hi Francine, what a beautiful girl! I just love her face. I am very fond of the wide-faced Sashas! You are very lucky. xxx Karin
Hi again, I meant to say that I find this 'ribbon dress' very intriguing! Who makes such garments? Very individual and very effective. xxx Karin
The dress was made by Marti Murphy from vintage fabric that she dyed purple.
