Description
Of luxurious soft royal blue velvet, the dress has a gathered skirt, inset embroidered dimity yoke edged with blue velvet banding and gathered scalloped-edge bretelles to match the yoke, the trim at the hem edge, and edges of the puffed sleeves. There are seven blue velvet bows at the front and two at the back. A publicity photograph of Shirley wearing the costume is included. The costume was worn by Shirley Temple in the 1937 film "Heidi" as Klara's father arrives home for the Christmas holidays, and in the following Christmas "Silent Night" scene.
