More about the Custom Thimbles & Acorns Dress: This beautiful dress is hand-made by Shari Fuller from the Maria Antoinette Zone Front Gown pattern. This historical dress is made with high quality cotton fabrics that are true to the time period. A delicate straw hat completes the look! Your 18" American Girl® doll will look fabulous in this new dress.

More About The Pattern: This zone-front gown is a Robe a l'Anglaise (a gown with a bodice that closes in the front without the use of a stomacher) with diagonal pieces sweeping from the top center front to just before the side seams at the waist, pening up into the skirt. This creates a separate piece across the stomach (a separate "zone”). The gown pictured on the front cover is made in one color and set off with a sheer organza trim, but the color of the center “zone” can be changed to give it a completely new look. The gown bodice closes down the front with hooks and eyes, edge-to-edge, with trim along the center front. The back of the gown is made in the En 'Fourreau style, a method where the back of the skirt and the back of the bodice are one piece, and the bodice portion is pleated and sewn down to create the shaping. The sleeves are full length with a double organza ruffle along the bottom edge and placket. The trimmings consist of gathered bands of organza. The standout feature of this gown is the wide red belt with rhinestone buckle. This PDF pattern is designed to fit 18 inch dolls such as American Girl® or other Similarly Sized Dolls.

Thanks Shari! Awesome outfit. It’s a tough call but I think that 60 slightly edges out 28 due to the coloring of her hair making the dress really pop.

Both dolls look precious in the Thimbles and Acorn dress, but to my eyes, #28 Truly Me nudges past #60 Truly Me and Wears It Best. Her skin tone and the green of the dress just really compliment each other.

I think Truly #28 models it the best but this time it was definitely a close run. I saw a different picture somewhere at a different angle and showed their hair styles better. That is what pushed me over to pick the Truly #28 as the better model.

I like #28 the best – her medium colored tones displays an authentic appearance that still remains historically correct in portraying the few women and girls of color who wore the same style of clothing as what the Caucasian women and girls of that time period wore. I vote for #28!
