The image shows a modern African American or African fashion doll wearing a handmade wedding gown. The bodice of the dress is overlaid with off-white lace, and there's a layer of cream-covered lace over the top of the cotton skirting. The straps of the dress are also made of lacy off-white ribbon. This image represents the doll dress you can make with the free printable PDF sewing patterns found at ChellyWood.com (and incidentally, the website also offers free tutorial videos showing how to make this dress and variations of this dress).

This image shows a Made-to-Move Barbie wearing a Marilyn Monroe-style 1950s or early 1960s swimsuit / bikini with a halter style swimsuit top and booty-shorts-style swimsuit bottoms. The doll stands on sandy ground, surrounded by 1:6 scale wicker lawn furniture with a sun swept bay behind her. There's a cottage behind her on a grassy slope that leads to the beach.
