Returning this year as a young student of T'ai Chi Chih, 14” Piper is learning the right moves, but is already ahead of the fashion. She wears a short cotton jacket in a serene medley of browns and taupe with black detailing on the pocket, the bodice and all around the sleeves and hemline. Half frog closures and black buttons close the jacket over a lovely, long white shirt with a square neck and specialty cotton embroidered skirt and sleeve embellishments. The print cotton pants are banded in fabric matching the jacket and she sports hand painted hi tops tennis shoes over white socks for balance. Piper's blue green eyes and dusting of freckles are complemented by her red hair, which she wears in braided rolls at each side of her crown, decorated with richly colored hair pins. LE425
