Mademoiselle Renée is not only a stunningly beautiful Bébé Rabery Delphieu – she is a very fortunate Bébé indeed, as she has retained her original trunk and trousseau! Standing just under twenty-two inches in height, Renée is deeply impressed R.2.D, she boasts lovely perfect bisque, wonderful coloring, expressive brown paperweight eyes, pierced ears with pearl earrings and her original blonde mohair wig in its original set.  On a true R.D. body with straight wrists, it is in excellent condition overall, retaining the original paint finish.
Renée’s trunk houses her marvelous trousseau which allows her seven changes of clothes – highlighted by the soft peach silk faille party dress she is shown wearing here. In addition, for winter wear she was given a deep burgundy velvet ensemble, which is complete with a jaunty beret – and do not miss her burgundy wool coat with its lace accents. Additional pieces include a fabulous selection of bebe jewelry, plus cotton dresses and even a small assortment of chapeaux! We all know bébés with their original trousseaux are especially rare to come by. If you love Renée as much as we do, please don’t hesitate.
