Dressed for the High Society Promenade. Her ensemble is a masterclass in vintage doll couture, rich with texture and detail. The Jacket: She wears a tailored walking jacket fashioned from shimmering, sage-green satin. It is lavishly trimmed with intricate antique-gold metallic braiding that catches the light beautifully.

The Accessories: No Victorian lady would dare step out improperly dressed! She dons a magnificent matching satin poke bonnet, heavily adorned with intricate beadwork and soft purple floral accents.

In her hand, she carries her essential lace-trimmed parasol, ready for a stroll through the park.
