FHD Description:
"Winner of a DOLL OF THE YEAR (R) award, this spectacular portrait doll wears earrings of real diamonds and emeralds.  Her lush gown was inspired by the legendary costume that the determined Scarlett(TM) fashioned from the drapes of Tara.  Green velvet and satin...golden tassels and braid.  Lovingly hand-painted in lifelike detail, her beautiful eyes are set off to perfection by the richness of her green gown."
Gone With The Wind
Curtain Dress Plot Description:
"After burying her father, Scarlett again seeks the help of the only man she knows who possesses enough wealth to help her: Rhett Butler. Despite holding a Captain's rank, Rhett is being held in the city jail in Atlanta by Union forces who are threatening to hang him unless he hands over his Confederate gold. Prior to the war, Rhett had moved all his wealth to banks in London where it would be safe. Conditions in the jail, however, are hardly bleak: Rhett plays cards, gambles and drinks with Union soldiers, tells them stories about his life as a blockade runner, and he even receives female visitations. Scarlett decides to dress up for the occasion and enlists Mammy to create a new dress for her out of the curtains hanging at Tara. Mammy accompanies Scarlett to Atlanta to keep her out of trouble. Posing as one of Rhett's "sisters", Scarlett is allowed to visit with Rhett privately at the city jail and attempts to present herself with an air of elegance, claiming that life at Tara is like paradise. Rhett, however, sees through the deception when he notices her roughened hands from working the fields. Despite her anger, she continues to beg for money and even offers to be his mistress."  From imdb's
