Barbie: Career Girl Barbie Doll - Gold Label Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This 2006 Gold Label release brings back one of Barbie's most elegant, desirable ensembles of the early 1960s, "Career Girl" (cat #954). It's presented on a stunning example of the blonde 'Bubblecut' doll.
The "Career Girl" outfit consists of a gray tweed pencil skirt with matching wide-collared jacket, and a pillbox hat topped with a red rose. Underneath, Barbie wears a red turtleneck bodysuit; and also sports a pair of black elbow-length gloves. Completing Barbie's corporate look are a pair of black open-toed mule shoes, and a shiny black clutch-purse (a PAK item which wasn't originally included with the outfit, but over the years has been added to it by keen collectors for display). The "Career Girl" outfit has always reminded me of Kim Novak's tailored gray suit from the movie "Vertigo"--were Mattel designers influenced by the work of Edith Head?!
Originally released as a Gold Label offering by Barbie Collector in 2006, the "Career Girl" repro is now fetching very high prices; so grab her while you can!

Movie Mixer Barbie Doll Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Barbie is dressed to thrill in satin wrap sheath, gloves, and pearls. The quality shows from her carefully coiffed head to her stockings and sling back heels. She's a Gold Label Silkstone Barbie so I recommend her for older children and Barbie collectors.

Barbie Collector My Favorite American Girl Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Let me just start by saying I absolutely adore this doll - it's one of the most beautiful reproductions I have ever seen. The doll's face paint is perfect, the outfit and swimsuit are exactly as pictured. Just lovely. As an added charm, Mattel actually didn't shellac the doll's hair into its usual frozen helmet. The hair is actually SOFT, can you believe it? Wow!
The downside? There are several: Once again, Mattel has stapled and fastened this doll to death. Four plastic staples in the head, alone. And it's impossible to cut them down flat without harming the hairdo. Why is it necessary to keep anchoring the collectible dolls' heads to the cardboard, at all? What is the point? Every Barbie collectible l doll I own has sharp plastic points sticking through her hair and you can never enjoy combing or touching it. Seriously, do Barbie heads really require multiple anchors to maintain their display position? Also, there is so much plastic piercing the clothes and poking holes in the legs that removing the doll from the cardboard takes an eternity. And quite wasteful packaging, btw.
Finally, the doll stand, itself, is not the proper height for this Barbie. You have to slide the waist grip all the way to the very top of the stand in order to keep the doll upright, and it keeps slipping off.
Still, this is in no way the fault of the doll, herself. And her loveliness makes up for all my complaints.

Barbie Fashion Model Collection 1959 Doll Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Just got my debut barbie last week and I can't help staring at it from time to time. It is simply gorgeous and it captures the essence of the original 1959 barbie. Simple make up makes it more appealing and classy. The zebra bathing suit is well crafted but I would recommend that you dont touch it coz there are some small beads/particles that comes off.
I have a big issue with the shoes. Just like the 1959 barbie repro (5oth anniversary series), the heel of the right shoe was bent due to the pastic thread that ties it in the foot. The manufacturer should have took extra care when they tied the nylon tread and when placing the doll in the carton box. But overall, this is a must have for all barbie collectors.
