ragdoll costume

Ragdoll costumes are typically made from polyester. Example listings show the dress as 100% polyester, while aprons and bloomers are often listed as mostly polyester with a small cotton blend (for example, 99% polyester / 1% cotton).

Dresses typically fasten at the center back with either a hook-and-loop (Velcro) closure or a zipper. Common fit features include elastic at the sleeve cuffs and ruffled collars. Aprons usually tie at the back, and bloomers use elastic at the waist and leg openings for a gathered, comfortable fit.

Aprons are typically pinafore-style with shoulder straps and waist ties that fasten at the back. Many are trimmed with red rickrack along the hem, and some listings note an elastic band at the top or inside the apron for a better fit.

Bloomers are usually white broadcloth, knee-length pieces with elastic at the waist and at the leg cuffs. The elastic creates a comfortable, gathered fit at both the waist and knees.

Most listings include a red yarn wig (often described as knitted or made of yarn) and red-and-white striped knee-high socks. Descriptions sometimes note the wig is one-size and may have an elastic cap inside for fit.

Most listings show a blue floral-print calico dress trimmed with red rickrack and paired with red-and-white striped socks. One infant listing also mentioned a brown/blue/red color mix, but the classic blue floral with red trim is the predominant scheme in the sampled details.
