The design: a child's dress and pinafore with a matching dress and pinafore for Sweet Sue and Binnie dolls. The perky dress has a small pointed collar, short puffed sleeves, a full gathered skirt and heart-shaped pockets on the bodice and skirt. The pinafore has a shaped neckline, button back closing and a scallop-edged skirt; the dress ties slip through openings at the pinafore's side seams and bow in back. The doll's dress and pinafore match the child's exactly.
