Hi, Nadia, wears the dress so well, she wears it with flare, looks like it was truly made for her. The colour really suits her hair colour and brings out the pink in her cheeks. The dress looks like a period dress, and Nadia wouldn’t have looked out of place in the Victorian times.
Love this outfit.
Nanea wears it the best………………thank you Robin for this adorable outfit…………..
I would have to pick #65 because of my Irish heritage. She is so adorable in her outfit. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to win one of these precious dolls.
Robin, thank you! I think you must have had Nanea in mind when you chose this fabric, it is so beautiful on her.
I vote Nanea! She’s my favourite out of the two.
I love the look on Nanea. She’s so cute!
Both girls look beautiful in this dress, each in her own way. Very flattering fabric.
Thanks to Robin for offering this beautiful outfit! I don’t usually like orange clothing with red hair, but somehow I really like this outfit best on Truly Me # 65. (It’s very nice on Nanea, too, with her lovely long hair).
They are both beautiful. Love the colors. Nanea is my choice for better if I have to choose.
While the colors compliment #65’s complexion, I think Nanea wears it best.
I love the colors in the dress.
Peach is a good color on Nanea. She looks absolutely stunning.
I love the dress and I like the Nanea doll best.
So hard to pick one over the other. After seesawing between the two for the last fifteen minutes, the dress seems to be wearing #65, but the reverse is true of Nanea, she looks so lovely in that dress, with her dark hair and pretty complexion, my eyes always travel to her first. #65 is very pretty in this dress, but Nanea edges her out, so I vote for Nanea! Thank you to Robin and Pixie Faire for the opportunity to vote and a chance at winning Nanea ~
This sweet outfit looks lovely on both dolls, but I love Nanea’s cute face!
Thanks Robin and Cinnamon for the giveaway and cute outfit. I think the outfit looks better on Truly 65 with her coloring. Her red hair goes so well with the colors in the outfit.
great look
I love Nanea and the outfit.
Nanea. I love her!
Love Names in this outfit. Thanks to Pixie Faire for the fun contest each week!
I love the Irish look of #65
Thanks for the chance to win a doll. I vote for #65. Her red hair goes so well with the outfit.
Thank you for your generosity. I think Nanea wears it best.
I voted for #65. Thanks!
Truly #65 for sure on this one
Thank you Robin! I always vote for the redheads, being one myself!
They are both so adorable and they look cute in this outfit but I think that Nanea with her hair coloring makes the outfit look great. Thank you for the wonderful giveaway.
Thank you Robin.#65 wears it best.
Nanea’s dark hair and coloring goes perfect with the outfit.
Nanea is just beautiful! And the dress is better sitting on her. Hair is so well in tune with the color of the dress. Thanks to Robin! Nanea – my dream!
Nanea looks the best 9n this cute dress. Must be the dark hair.
Nenea’s hair and eyes look better with the color of this beautiful outfit.
My vote, this week, goes to with Nanea. Thanks for the giveaway.
I think the coloring of TrulyMe #65 makes the outfit truly ‘POP’!
I love the way #65’s hair matches the outfit! Thanks for a great giveaway!
These are always hard to decide which you like best when they are both wonderful!!! So like I usually do, I flip a coin and this week’s winner is Nanea. Thanks for having the drawing each weeks!!!
Nanea wears it best.
Absolutely love this pattern! It is a must have!!!!
Whoever selected Nanea was thinking outside the box. Very Creative with this dress.
Just hope AG will rethink the orange hair and make a redhead more realistic.
Thank you Robin. This pattern is going on my wishlist!
They both are gorgeous but I think Nanea looks best. thank you soo much for this drawing
Nanea
Hard choice!! Thanks to Robin and the Pixie Faire staff for making these gals and outfit available. The dress wears #65, which is what I guess modeling is about, models are just the attractive hangers for the garments. BUT Nanea’s coloring allows her to stand out. Her Hawaiian heritage reminded me of Queen Lili’uokalani—monarch, composer, author—who would have been adolescent in the 1850’s, and wore European dress. Guess Nanea is my choice!
love number 65 in the outfit her red hair goes so good with the outfit. Just love that outfit
Thank you Robin! I chose Nanea, loved her dark hair with it.
I think Nanea looks best, love that dress
Both dolls are adorable, but we must choose, so #65 gets my vote. Thanks again Cinnamon and Robin!
65 looks best.
I voted for Nanea. I think the orange color of the dress and her skin tones compliment each other perfectly. Thanks so much for having the giveaway.
I love Nanea in this outfit! Beautiful! Thanks for the giveaway!
My granddaughter has auburn hair and the color is so amazing on #65! So that is my pick!
I totally love the dress Robin!!! What a beautiful piece you have created for these dolls!! It goes beautifully with Nanea especially with her dark hair. As for Truly Me I think because the colour is the same as her hair, it washes her out and makes her look too pale! Awesome work Robin and can’t wait to see other pieces!!! Thanks for this opportunity and good luck to all!!
I like it best on 65, thank you Robin for the adorable outfit!
I think number 65 wears it best,bit both of them look great in it.
Nanea! Her dark hair shines against the color in the beautiful dress. (Plus… I like her name!) ;-)
Love #65 as it looks good with her hair coloring. Thanks.
I vote for Nanea.
great work on the outfit! I especially like the white ribbons on the front. The color goes really well with the fall leaves I’ve been seeing around our city . . Thanks for the opportunity to try for this gorgeous set!
I think Nanea modeled it best
Love them both. I especially like the red hair. But I thought Nanea looked striking in the dress and voted for her. The dress is stunning. Thank you Robin.
Would love to have either doll in my collection.
Nanea is my personal favorite; however, both are lovely in the dress. I think the fact that #65’s hair is the same color as the dress causes her to get lost in the overall look. Nanea’s dark hair makes her face pop!
I love the outfit, lots of work went into it and it shows. Thanks for doing the giveaways, I really enjoy entering every week.
I love the way it looks on Nanea. She has beautiful dark hair that looks great with the dress. #65 is a gorgeous doll with those big, blue eyes, but I like this dress on Nanea.
Nanea has the coloring for this dress in this particular fabric. She has a really cute face. It washes out the coloring of #65. Thanks for the opportunity. Love your clothes.
I voted for Nanea, love her dark hair.
Thank you !
Both of the girls look good in the outfit but I think Nanea wears this one best. The outfit is just set off so well with her coloring.
I think Nanea wears it best.
Nanea reminds me of some of the pictures I’ve seen of Hawaii in that time period.Could she be related to royalty?
I think Nanea wears it best. The coloring contrasts with her hair better.
With her lovely red hair, #65 looks lovely in this outfit.
Cute outfit and I think Nanea wears it best.
The outfit is beautiful – I voted for # 65.
Thank you for sharing this lovely dress pattern. It’s so dainty! I do like #65 best. The fabric colors are especially inviting.
I love both but prefer 65
Thank you Robin! I think #65 wears it best. The oranges in the outfit go so well with her red hair!
Nanea looks striking in this outfit
Nanea’s dark hair looks best with the color of this dress.
I think Nanea, but both are so cute.
Tough choice (Ingrid always?), but Nanea got my vote. She’s just so photogenic!
I think Nanea looks best in this outfit. The burnt orange of the outfit looks gorgeous with her dark hair and eyes.
Names looks the best in this outfit. Thanks Robin! Very cute!
bravo et merci à Robin pour cette sublime tenue
les deux poupées la portent à merveille mais j’ai un penchant pour la 65 alors je vote pour elle
Nanea is my choice 💕
Robin such great work on the outfit! I especially like the accented white ribbons on the front. The color goes really well with the fall leaves I’ve been seeing around lately. It’s dainty enough for a party but I can see 65 wearing it out for a walk with friends. Thanks for the opportunity to try for this gorgeous set!
I thought at first Manea was the one who modeled it best, but as I look closer 65’s red hair compliments the ensembles perfectly.
Nanea looks more gorgeous in this outfit than anything I have seen in a while. She is so pretty in the orange colors and this beautiful pattern. Thank you Robin.
They both look great, but I really like how #65’s hair almost matches the color of the outfit! What an awesome and generous giveaway… I have to admit I’ll be a bit jealous of whoever wins this one ☺️
Beautiful outfit and beautiful dolls! Thank you!!
Nanea looks stunning! Thank you!
Thank You. I picked the redhead, Both dolls looked cute in that dress.
Thank you so much Robin! I think Nanea wears it best. I like the contrast of her hair with the dress and the hazel eyes.
Thank you Robin for your generosity :) I think Nanea wears the outfit best :)
Love it on Nanea. It complements her coloring, rather than looking monochromatic
I voted for Nanea, as I thought she modeled the dress the best.

Nanea wears it best cause it suits her coloring, and brings to life her beautiful face.
