School Suit and Blouse
The School Suit and Blouse (also known as Addy's School Suit and Blouse and Addy's School Outfit) was introduced to Addy's Collection in 1993 and was retired in 2006. It was rereleased in 2025 and retired again in 2026. The outfit is associated with the story Addy Learns a Lesson. Retail cost was $20 and was later increased to $22; the 2025 rerelease cost was $55 and increased to $60.
The 2025 rerelease includes a copy of Addy Learns a Lesson.

Trivia
- The different lining prints are to relate to the details in Addy Learns a Lesson, where Momma used different lining prints to line the jacket in the outfit she made.
- The statement on the pin is a real quote from both 1860 campaigns and stated by U.S. Congressman Martin F. Conway on December 5, 1861, and was a running slogan of the Republican Party at the time through the Civil War.
- The outfit (sans jacket) was shown under Addy's Winter Coat until its retirement, when it was replaced with Addy's Tartan Plaid Dress.
