Sindy 'Windy Days' Outfit

Sindy Designer Outfit
1963 (Manufactured)
Artist/Maker
Place of origin

Sindy 'Winter Days' Outfit in blue with a red pom-pom on the beret. While this set is often referred to as featuring a 'Tamashanta' beret, a Scottish collector corrected Pedigree's description by saying that it is actually a Tam o' Shanter beret, worn by peasants. Other variations of this set feature a white pom-pom instead of a red one.
