Greek doll (female) wearing a purple costume. The doll wears multiple layers of clothing. Her first layer is a red skirt with a yellow and blue waved lining at the bottom. Over that skirt is a brown-ish apron with a black lace perimeter and white, gold, and red adornments. Over these layers is a full purple dress. The top of the dress is long-sleeved, with off-white lace at the end of the sleeves. Down the middle and around the waist of the woman is a red and gold striped ribbon. Sequins and pins decorate her chest as well. Below her waist is a full purple skirt. That purple skirt is covered in the front by a pink apron-like piece, that is folded over from the attached-purple skirt. On this pink apron piece are sequins, with a gold, orange, green, yellow, and black border. The doll wears red shoes. On her head is a woven hat with a peach-colored cloth hanging down her neck. Covering both of those items is an off-white, lace cloth. There are various nails stuck in the doll's head to keep her hat adornments on.
