$135.00 $150.00
Barbie is absolutely stunning in this Masquerade Ball gown.
“Grand regalian and sophistication create a striking and elegant backdrop for this glorious gown. Shimmering glass bugle beads in rich hues of aquamarine, sunset, orange, scarlet, fuschia, and chartreuse are hand sewn to the front of the gown to form an intricate pattern of harlequin inspired diamond shapes. Accenting each point of the diamond is a single golden bead. Gently cascading around the form-fitting gown, isa dramatic bustle-train, embellished with alternating hand-sewn golden and black beads. Masquerade Ball Barbie is the first in this series to have a titan red hair, a vibrant shade of reddish brown as unique as an exotic sunset. Her hair is delicately braided in classic, European elegance, then carefully set in a dainty snood. Punctuating the dramatic look in an undulating sweep is her hat. Crafted with the perfection of fine millinery design, the black velvety hat was designed specifically for this beauty. Signature golden and black beading graces the delicate border. A subtle touch yes, but magically enhanced with the pieces de resistance ….six exotic black hackle feathers. Bob Mackie is renowned for his passion to both minute and dramatic details.”
