Classic French Fashion Doll Walking Suit

Classic French Fashion Doll Walking Suit, found at the brocante {flea market} it's a charming little suit, with a jacket with French black lace sleeves and Victorian soutache trim, a full velvet skirt, a velvet bonnet with black trim, and satin bloomers and slip both trimmed in black lace {these have faded over the decades to a more orange red as shown.} If you have a tiny mannequin or a big French fashion doll this may fit, I see it being ever so sweet and charming hung together on an antique hanger in a display. {you would have to either pin the skirt to the underside of the jacket, or sew on loops to hang from the hanger.}

Appears to have been home made by an enterprising maman at one time, it's difficult to date this darling little outfit because of the antique fabrics and trims used.
