Elegant and Timeless
2009 Holiday Barbie is elegant and timeless in a shimmering pale pink and gold lame gown with bejeweled tulle. Her bodice is skillfully crafted with a beautiful wraparound bow, and her chandelier earrings with matching pink gems complete the look. The Holiday Barbie comes with her own doll stand that can be hidden beneath her flowing dress.

The stand allows her to stand up alone on a table -- or shelf -- in between uses or for decoration. The delicate textures and dazzling materials of her gown make it hard not to want to touch or play with Holiday Barbie.

I'M A BARBIE DOLL COLLECTOR AND THIS DOLL IS BEAUTIFUL, JUST AS THE OTHER HOLIDAY BARBIES ARE. IF YOU ARE A COLLECTOR BE SURE TO ADD THIS TO YOUR COLLECTION. INCIDENTLY, I AM 84 YEARS YOUNG AND I STILL LOVE DOLLS. I HAVE ALL THE HOLIDAY BARBIES, STARTING WITH THE FIRST ONE.

One of my favorite Holiday Barbies yet, we were thrilled with how much more lovely this doll is in person than in the promotional photos. She is very glamourous, indeed. Her make-up is quite heavy: runway-style smokey eyes, and heavily done lips and cheeks, even for the fashion queen herself. But what makes her extra special is that her holiday dress is *pink*. I love it! The gown is actually layers of pink lamé, with several shades of bright and pale pink tulle layers over the top of the skirt, and an oversized lamé bow tied at the waist. I think it's quite couture, and quite possibly overdone, but only Barbie could carry it off. She's 50! Why not celebrate? We deboxed this doll, and her hair actually stayed nice, too. I think she's lovely. Again, the super-slim model muse body doesn't pose very well. I wish Mattel would use the pivotal body more (I love to pose my dolls). Also, you should check out the Barbie 2009 Holiday African-American Doll version of this doll, too. She is also simply lovely.

Beautiful Barbie

Amazon needs more categories to rate this doll. It is typically not bought to be played with or have educational value, but kept as a collector's keepsake. This is the 15th year that I have bought my daughter the Holiday Barbie and the 2009 is about the prettiest one yet.
