Skiing or "She-ing"? Trent Doll and Costume Set

Trent Says:

All right. Level with me. Whose idea was this in the first place?

Who ever decided that strapping two barrel slats on your boots and zipping down the mountainside at ungodly speeds in sub-zero weather was fun?

Not I! Oh, perhaps in my more foolhardy days...

But here I am, in a little chalet in St. Moritz, lounging in front of the fire surrounded by enthusiasts from all over the world, ready to eagerly hurl themselves down the mountain to nearly certain bone breakage and freezing behinds.

However, I did make an appearance today on the slopes, dressed in my finest ski togs. Needless to say, the snow bunnies came hopping over, eager to share a t-bar with yours truly. But I declined each and every one of their pleas-that nasty ol' football injury flaring up again, don't you know. But I did make a few appointments to see them after their day of schussing for a quiet cocoa by the hearth. Then I went over and settled myself into a comfy snowbank to await a friendly St. Bernard and his equally friendly brandy cask. Ah, the great outdoors...

Now I bask in the warmth of my companions for the evening, here in the comfort of the lodge, listening attentively to the daily report. You see, you may call this recreation "skiing"-but I, my friend, prefer to pronounce it "she-ing"-see what I mean?

• Skiing or "She-ing"? is a handsome ski ensemble, circa 1948.
• Trent starts in an off-white jacket with wide lapels and double-breasted front with winged lapels and a silver buckle in the front. Under his jacket, he wears a red knit long-sleeved turtleneck.
• His belted dark green pants have side pockets and tapered legs with black elastic at bottom.
• An off-white wool hat with red knit flaps along sides to back and a dark green ultra-sued flap in front with green button detail tops his ensemble.
• His boots are brown with red laces.
• Then, for a change, Trent can switch into a blue crew neck sweater with a red and white pattern and a matching scarf, gray pants and black boots.
