1883 Lady By The Sea
This exquisite 1880’s seaside costume features an Irish Crochet bodice with a fancy multi-layer skirt draped with a shell fringed scarf. More shell fringe adorns her parasol. You’ll find yourself lost in memories of deserted sandy islands and snorkeling on coral reefs.
This fun filled Kit will provide hours of relaxation and summer memories. You’ll enjoy stringing seashells for the fabulous shell fringe and playing with the assorted miniature nautical trims. No detail was missed. Her vintage rhinestone earrings are trimmed with freshwater pearls and we have even included a teenie mermaid knife and genuine starfish and sand dollars to fill up her purse.
