Kit's Reporter Dress
I purchased this dress directly from American Girl in May of 2009. I bought it for my Kit.
The outfit includes:
-The dress -White socks -Red shoes with very cute detail -A red headband
It is a very cute dress, and I like the print very much. It seems fairly high quality, although the headband does not fit very well and will not stay on any doll's head. Even if I can manage to balance it for awhile, it looks strange, and not at all like in the catalogue photos. I usually just give up and pull her hair back with a clip.
Overall, I give it an A-, simply because of the lack of care put into the design of the headband.
Pictures to come once my camera finishes charging!

Note: I do not own this dress, my friend does, so the review is not great
When Kit’s hot on the trail of a news story, she stays cool and comfortable in this outfit:
* A floral dress with a wide collar, bright red trim, and a belt at the waist * A red headband to sweep back her hair * White socks and red shoes with swirly stitching at the toes
Dress: A
This dress is so sweet! The print is really neat,a white background with red, blue and yellow flowers on it it. It goes down pretty far, compared to the other outfits. Most of the other skirts/dresses reach the knees, even for Kit, but this one is a sort of bias cut dress
Headband: C I would buy this outfit just for how cute the headband looks! But it was on Emily for a few hours, then we had to take it off because it squashed her head. It works for short periods of time, but not long lengths of Dollplay.
Shoes: A+ In my opinion, the cutest part of the outfit! They are a really nice, bright red, with cute white swirls stiched on them. The fasten easily(though the velcro could catch the socks?) and fit the doll well.
Overall grade: B

I have Kit's reporter dress too! I agree; the headband could have been made better. The purple headband from the zebra striped dress for My American Girl dolls has little pointy parts at the sides so that it grips onto the dolls head/hair. My headband from Kit's reporter dress always slides up so that only the ends are on her head, and it's standing up! The shoes are so adorable, but I have trouble fitting her feet in if they're wearing the socks, especially if I want the socks to look not wrinkly and puffy! The dress is very well made though, I'm so glad I got it. I also got Kit's reporter accessories and they accompany the outfit perfectly!
