DescriptionAn off-white, floral brocade vest for a male doll. White and red rick rack edging run around its bottom and up the lower half of both sides of the front opening. Only the white rick rack continues up and around the collar. All of the vest's edges are decorated with rick rack style stitching in orange threading, as well as metallic silver cording. Beadwork lines the cording on both the front and back sides, save around arms. The same beadwork decorates the back in lines and floral designs. A length of white, machine embroidered ribbon is sewn onto the right side of the front opening at the waist.
