French Fashion dolls from the second half of the 19th century came with more than just the latest fashionable dress for visiting, or dining, or taking tea. Some dolls had their own extensive wardrobes or trousseaus of elaborately stitched dresses, gowns, robes, coats, and underwear. They had lavish accessories: kid gloves, hats, umbrellas, purses, jewelry, even opera glasses. This doll's plum-colored silk dress is accompanied with a parasol, a brown leather hand bag, pearl earrings, an elaborate hat, and a pocket watch on a gold chain around the doll's neck.
