American Girl: Historical Inspirations

(I can’t take credit for finding all of these. Some were found by members of the American Girl Playthings forum.)

1. Dress, 1865-1870, Chester County Historical Society

2. Godey’s Ladies Book, April 1863

3. Fashion Plate, Journal de Modes et d'Arts, 1852

4. Girl with canary by Seymour Joseph Guy

5. Fancy chemisette and sleeves, for a child to wear under a low necked dress, Godey’s Lady’s Book, December 1861

6. American Costume 1840-1920 by Estelle Ansley Worrell The book describes the coat as gray with blue trim. Unfortunately the book does not cite any of the sources used to create the illustrations and this outfit could be from any number of fashion plates or museums.

I had to steal these from a d*ily m*il article but AG has released a book promoting body diversity and love, which includes parts supporting trans kids!

Conservatives are ofc throwing a fit rn– so over here in our trans-inclusive space, let’s show overwhelming support for this book! Esp with the recent h*rry p*tter collab, let’s show AG that we want them to continue supporting ALL women!

Courtney just didn't have the right level of 80's dorkyness... so I fixed it! Courteny now has huge aviator glasses (her mom says it's from staring at video games too closely) and braces.

Hopefully by the next holiday season I’ll have Kaya’s winter accessories and Josefina’s Christmas outfit, and maybe even Felicity/Elizabeth outfits for Caty and Abigail.

I'm just glad that the painters finished before the end of Hanukkah, so I could access everything and have somewhere to put them all.

Felicity tried to get out of apple butter making, and instead enjoyed the sunny morning on her roof ☺️
