[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 1416607, member: 2844"]I agree, very cute. Probably Hollandmania rather than actual Dutch. The house looks like a traditional holiday home in the Veluwe region in the eastern Netherlands. I have always liked that style. The girls are dressed in a general Hollandmania look. Here is an 'analysis' for those who are interested in Dutch and other costumes: The kissing girl is fairly consistent in her dress, mostly Volendam, Holland (western Netherlands). Her light blue apron could be from East Brabant, southern Netherlands.;) The boys' costumes are pretty correct for Volendam. The brown should be black though. Now for the coy girl. She really has been rummaging around in the fancy dress box.:playful: The lace cap is from the village of Volendam. The puff sleeves are German.:confused: Over her blouse she seems to be wearing a satin bodice from the Dutch village of Urk. And over the Urk bodice she seems to be wearing a velvet bodice from Java, Indonesia.:wideyed: I have no idea where she got her apron from.:D[/QUOTE]
