Debbie Teen Fashions and Tiny Teen Fashions were made by the same unknown company, as is evidenced by the similarity in packaging. Many of these outfits were after-market Topper fashions, sold off during their bankruptcy liquidation in 1973. Knowing this, it's impossible to say if the outfit you have was originally packaged and sold as Topper or Debbie Teen, but it hardly matters. These fashions were originally manufactured by Topper, no matter who packaged and sold them afterwards.
Both the back of the doll box (above left) and the back of the fashion box (above right) show additional fashions for Debbie Teen dolls. None of the fashions had names.
Multi-color Dotted Swiss dress with pink waffle-pattern tights.
Black and gold evening gown with gold lame wrap.
Black faux leather overcoat.
The overnight case seems to have a
"Pan-Am" logo on it.
Green striped mini with yellow waffle-pattern tights.

Below are enlargements of the fashion photos from the "Tiny Teen" fashion box, which is essential identical to the outfits presented on the "Debbie Teen" fashion box. It's interesting to note that, while these fashions were packaged to support the Debbie Teen doll, all the illustrations show Topper Dawn modeling the outfits. You may also recognize more Topper fashions in these photos.
