Kuss-Walzer Gown (The “Kiss Waltz”)

Posted on January 1, 2015 by hwesterv

It is a tradition on New Year’s Day for the Vienna Philharmonic to perform the waltzes of Johann Strauss.  Victoire attends the concert ready for dancing, and perhaps a stolen kiss, in a shining white silk gown with a white silk organza over skirt embroidered with pink blooms.  A wide cummerbund of pale pink silk defines the waist.

This fashion fits Silkstone Barbie and Victoire Roux.  It will also fit taller dolls like FR2 dolls, but will be shorter.
