View A has a cross over waistband treatment with a wide open clean neckline and short puffy sleeves with sleeve bands.
View B has a wide open neckline with extended shoulders and short self-lined sleeves. It features a small collar with a tab detail that anchors a center neckline bow. Both dresses fasten up the back with seven buttons. Side ties form a pretty bow tie in the back which allow for some adjustment when fitting the dress on dolls with varying waistlines.
