Product Description
Barbie is ready to hit the runway and show off the latest global fashions as a top model. While we all know Barbies occupational curiosity has led her down varied paths, this one is perfect for the slender fashionista. She comes wearing a trendy outfit of fishnet stockings, a tiered black miniskirt, a patterned top with a short sleeve shrug, and ankle boots. Her long blond hair is styled sleekly straight and she is carrying an animal print handbag.
While this outfit is certainly catwalk worthy, its only logical that a working model have multiple wardrobe changes when on the current job--or when attempting to land her next fashion gig. So this Top Model Doll comes with a complete second set of clothing pieces and accessories. There are denim crop pants, a strapless pink top, a black hat, and a pair of black high heel shoes. All of the clothing can be mixed and matched to create an array of looks for the photographers.
And posing for those photographs is much easier now, thanks to this Barbies ModelMuse body and its 12 articulation points. Being able to move her at the wrists, elbows, knees, hips, and more means her poses are realistic to those of an actual model. However, it should be noted that the foot-tall doll will not actually stand on her own.
When Barbie heads out on go-sees, she can wear her black frame sunglasses, carry her portfolio, and pull her hair back with the included hair bands (making it better for designers to see her fabulous features). Also included is a hairbrush for styling her long tresses and a shoe box to hold the pair shes not currently wearing. Both of these accessories have the bright pink Barbie silhouette logo on them. 
Barbie can pose in a variety of ways thanks to 12 articulation points. View larger. |

Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
Durability: Fun: Educational:
. This is one of the prettiest dolls that Mattel has created recently. There is a plethora of Top Model dolls available. The problems I think Mattel is having is that they are trying desperately to regain the doll market championship -- I don't think this will happen. Taking the boots off is okay, but putting them back on made me think that mattel put them on and then made the stockings. Impossible, for sure. She comes with a delightful array of items for a top model to be on site in any of a dozen places for a photo shoot. There are so many doll makers now, that for Mattel to regain it's market shares, they must compete in the quality versus quantity race. Why not put out six pink label dolls (standard), 3 gold label, 2 silver label, and 1 grand special, and 2 Silkstone -- at the limitations they have specified. I've been a collector for years, but it is extremely annoying to have a head pop off for no real reason except trying to put a shirt on the doll.
