This is a picture I borrowed from a seller on ebay showing a vintage MINT set of the 20" Fashion Parade doll, with all
the original accessories, in the still crisp and clear colors of the original doll. Notice the color of the turquoise
dress, since it usually fades down to an ivory color.

Notice that this doll is a brunette, and this is the 20 inch version, which came with a pink negligee set, a white satin
silver stiching embelished gown, with a dark navy bow. She aslso sported a green satin street-length dress with big
pink roses, and a matching wide-brimmed portrait hat, that has usually faded down to an ivory. If you find one, you
will find green stiching and green bias tape on the hemline, indicating that it was at one time that color. She also
has some of the fanciest jewelry for a doll of this size, with large bauble earrings, and a matching necklace. She also
has the pretty embroidered dress that is found frequently on the 24 inch Janie doll.
The top dress has ties that form a bow on the shoulder with a ruffle showing at the bottom of the dress and a large flower.
There is also the wide-brimmed hat. The dress at the top is the way you usually find this dress. The turquoise picture
shows the color it was, before it faded down. This version is the 20 inch Fashion Parade dress, but the color is what
I want you to see.
The dress on the bottom has three-quarter length sleeves and a huge bow with flower at the hip, also with the wide-brimmed
hat. Can you imagine walking around all night fighting that bow on your hip?
