To celebrate its 40th anniversary, American Girl has refreshed its iconic Historical dolls with a 'Modern Era Collection.'

Josefina Montoya's ensemble now includes crimson-ruffled shorts and cowgirl boots, drawing inspiration from her 1824 origins. Other characters like Addy Walker and Kirsten Larson also feature updated looks, with braided pigtails transformed into modern space buns. The dolls themselves have undergone a size reduction, now standing 14.5 inches tall compared to their initial 18-inch height.
