Extra Story Outfits

Kirsten's Work Dress, an Extra Story Outfit.

Extra Story Outfits, for the purposes of classification, are extra outfits and accompanying shoes for the first six Historical Characters that often had ties to the stories or other additional play sets.

The first sets were released in 1987, offering new outfits that had been first illustrated in Kirsten's, Samantha's, and Molly's meet books. One of the outfits was generally shown or prominent in one volume; this was either the meet book or winter story. The second outfit was illustrated frequently and either a play or work outfit. Historically a child would have a separate set of clothing--of a lesser or more easily cleaned quality--for chores or outdoor play, so as not to muss their better day to-day clothes in times when laundering outer clothing was not convenient and so not as frequently done.

Felicity's riding breeches are not technically either, but Benjamin Davidson's breeches are a major part of the plot in Meet Felicity and so are being listed here; this is the same with Molly's Miss Victory Costume (and Changes for Molly), though it was first sold as part of Molly's Winter Activities.

All extra story outfits and accessories are now retired.
