The Grand Tour

Description

Platinum Label NRFB

“Classic… Elegant… Timeless. ” For more than a half century, Barbie has endured passing fads and fashions and, throughout the years, she has always symbolized beauty, elegance, and style. The 2012 National Barbie doll Collectors Convention Souvenir Doll, designed by Mario Paglino and Gianni Grossi, aka Magia 2000, wears an off-white taffeta gown that features an empire waist worn over a blush satin underskirt with a silvery lace overlay. The elegant accessories include faux pearl drop earrings and a rhinestone brooch. Influenced by the Grand Tour Convention theme and European architectural concepts of columns, the doll represents a classic look that will truly withstand the test of time. Unveiled to the conventioneers as they commemorated the culmination of their 2012 “Grand Tour” with a celebration of an evening in the Eternal City of Rome, we present… Barbie is Eternal.
