Meet Outfit[]
Classic Edition[]
Rebecca's meet outfit is intended to imitate the fashions that were still somewhat conservative in dress during the mid-1910s, targeted for middle and working class Americans. In Meet Rebecca, the dress is stated to have been purchased from a mail-order catalog with the description "[r]ich garnet tweed for the sophisticated young lady."
After the launch of BeForever, the set was sold (minus hair accessories) as Rebecca's Classic Outfit for $36.
