I love her hair color and her face sculpt is sweet. I think the best way to press her dress is to hold it over a large pot of boiling water, your hand should be covered with a latex/rubber 🧤 glove and use tongs to hold the dress over the steam. The steam can burn your hand, so you must use tongs to grip the dress. The steam will remove the wrinkles. Edmond, I always enjoy your reviews. They’re informative and very amusing!
She was the best out of this collection despite the dress and same with the brunette too. This Odlie mold was used for the Flight Of Fashion doll and the mermaid too. This is the third time they used the face.
This one is hopeful. The last few years have been such disappointments for holiday Barbie IMO. Too bad she’s still lacking accessories and rooted eyelashes that they did in the early 2000s. That would suit her with the sideways glance. The earrings are just cheap looking. She needs some dangles.
The redhead is really cute. I was fortunate enough to get the whole collection. One interesting point is that IMO the Latina looks like my daughters, who are both "AA" (lmao at the 2 continent thing). In our family our tones are rich deep vanilla to cream. It's always interesting to see what MS calls biracial or Latina.
You are totally right about quality control and price. She has come consistently with horrible hair…. But I want her and am willing to overpay for that sweet face…Mattel has gotten away with it again!
I bought her a couple of weeks ago and LOVE her. The sculpt is so pretty and the hair color is fantastic. I do think your complaints about the back of her hair were a bit overblown. The doll is attached and laid flat in a box -- of course we'll need to zhuzh up her hair before displaying. (You should see *my* hair after I've had it in a hat for a few hours, heh.)

She's gorgeous, i haven't been able to find her yet but i'm not giving up, she has the Odile sculpt since it seems to be Angel Kent's favorite sculp atm he used it in the ooak princess of the caribean mermaid too and a lot of ppl in instagram already rebody and restyled her s i cant wait to do it myself
