Like the Cinderella we posted yesterday, Belle got  a makeover for 2010 by Little Adventures as well!  This new gown has more roses at the neckline and short cap sleeves, rather than being sleeveless like the previous version.  They also added ruffles and gold trims.  The dress is photographed with the optional fullness slip.  There’s also a updated matching 18-inch doll version – it’s adorable!

We have a very limited amount of the 2009 version of the dress and doll costume still available.  The new version is available now!
