Pink Cissy – Madame Alexander
This is Cissy by Madame Alexander.
The dress is an original, designed and sewn by a talented woman who wanted the outfit to look just like one her mother wore to church in the 1950s. The dress under the coat perfectly matches the coat, scarf, and hat.
Meet Miss Cissy by Madame Alexander. She is wearing a homemade outfit cut from an old dress I found at the Salvation Army and sewn by an exceptionally talented seamstress.
She is an original Cissy except for her wig which is not right. Usually, you can buy replacement wigs for old dolls who wear wigs, but not for Cissy. Nothing was available anywhere. I could not find an appropriate replacement wig for her, so she is wearing a wig that at least fits her head, but is absolutely the wrong style.
Otherwise, she’s one of the original fashion dolls and quite a beauty. Also, most definitely pink.

I don’t know what happened to my old dolls. My mother manage to have kept one of hers, but even that is long gone now.

She is quite elegant except for the dreadful wig. Thank goodness the hat covers most of it!
