28-inch Barbie Gets Redressed

28-inch Rainbow Sparkle Best Fashion Friend Barbie wears the original dress.


I purchased new clothes for Rainbow Sparkle Best Fashion Friend Barbie after viewing a beautiful selection offered by Etsy seller, LadyMarigoldFashions (the shop link is at the end of this post).  

Rainbow Sparkle Best Fashion Friend Barbie wears her new outfit well.


Because my doll has rainbow-colored hair, I limited the colors of the new clothes when making my selection in the Etsy shop. I chose a blue sweater with leggings ensemble by LadyMarigoldFashions which matches the doll's molded-on silver shoes. The crop top has a white diagonal design with a Velcro closure in the back. The leggings accent the doll's shapely legs and have a slight flare at the bottom. 

This well-made, moderately-priced fashion looks much better than Mattel's original. 

I almost deleted this photo.

Side Note: I took the above low-quality photo using my cell phone camera before switching to my Canon digital camera to take the other images in this post. The doll stood on one of my office chairs, the back of which is shorter than the doll's height. As a result, dolls on a shelf were captured in the photo, which adds photographic appeal. Had the clarity of the cell phone photo been sufficient, the plan was to remove the background.

  1. That outfit is amazing. Looks like people clothes were shrunk. Definitely better than her original dress as well.

    1. Thank you, Michelle. I'm so tempted to buy more because the quality is outstanding, but I'm going to refrain from doing that (for now anyway).
