I LOVE early embroideries! and this for sure is one of my favorites. The elaborate brightly-colored embroidery onto the golden-yellow silk taffeta is accentuated with silver metallic threads. Aimée loves her apron!
And her shoes finish the look! Her silk shoes are embellished with silver metallic trim that dates from the late 18th century.

Anna Maria and her Round Gown: a popular dress in the 18th century fashion history.......SOLD
There were many types of dresses in the 18th century. The Robe a la Francaise, the Robe à la Polonaise and the Robe à l'Anglaise are just some examples of the most popular and historical dresses of that era. Because of their sumptuousness these fashionable dresses were worn in more formal occasions.
Anna Maria is wearing a Round Gown, a dress style that become very popular in the late 18th century (1770's -1790's) Although it was considered a day dress, it was also worn for some formal occasions. I have posted several photos for you to see step-by-step how I have dressed her and all the details of this doll.
