She is dressed in a pink satin slip and panties (I did not remove it fully, as it must have been stitched together while it was on her-it cannot come off without cutting it). Over this, she wears an off-white satin wedding type gown with a train going down the back. Her outfit is made complete with some white silky socks and cute little off-white shoes, of which the button is missing for the strap on her right shoe. An easy fix! The 90 year old woman I bought her from used to sew all of her dolls' clothes, so I believe she made this whole outfit specific for this doll- I do not think it is the original outfit the doll came in from the store.
