Celebration Barbie 2000 Special Edition - African

Commemorating the millennium, this special 2000 Edition African American Celebration Barbie doll kicks off a new thousand-year cycle and, in turn, becomes a coveted collectible. Barbie appears in a fitted, backless bodice featuring vertical stripes of shining silver and randomly attached large silver snowflakes. A chic shawl neckline is made of fluffy white fur (a passable imitation of white mink) that hugs her neck and shoulders. But the skirt of the gown is the clincher, comprising four exquisite layers. The first two are a plain underskirt attached to a semipetticoat of glitter-encrusted lace. The third is a golden, satin like fabric with a striking cutaway front. The top layer is a white mesh skirt that flares out from Barbie's trim waist and is decorated with generous amounts of glitter, more snowflakes, and a cutaway front. The gown is removable--thanks to a Velcro back panel--so Barbie can wear something else after the millennium buzz starts to wear off. Barbie 2000--as gorgeous as ever--dons her hair and makeup in a simple but elegant fashion. Rich, formal colors coat her lips and eyes, accentuating a perfect smile and flawlessly arched eyebrows. Controlled twists of hair frame her face, and a golden tiara guides her long, straight black hair down her back. For accessories, Barbie wears a matching gold choker, twinkling gold earrings, a gold ring, and gold pumps. She brings to the new millennium a gift for you as well: a holiday ornament emblazoned with "2000" and decked with glitter and those silver snowflakes. Hang it wherever you'd like a festive reminder of this special year. As a collectible, the doll thoughtfully comes with a matching gold stand, as well as a two-year guaranteed warranty.
