Here some photos of my washed girls: (there are more to snap, but I haven't much time this days):
She had originally an orange jeans patterned skirt and jacket, overdecorated with blue rhinestones. I still have it, but I didn't found the top and the underskirt of her original dress, and so is explained this simpler orange dress. She's surely one of the oldest Barbies of my collection (if not the oldest), and the only one with chewed hands.
These two are in the most recent ones. They came in a supermarket set with a shopping cart, some toys for Shelly and boxes of goods. Shelly has a magnet in her left hand that make her "take" the goods boxes that have a similar magnet inside. Unfortunately my sister tried some purple hair mascara on Barbie's hair and they remained stained. Anyway, I don't love the hair fiber of this doll... but her red makeup is really pretty.
Sorry for the bad light, but it was evening. The blond is maybe the oldest doll of my collection, she had (and still has) a white puffy sleeves iridescent gown with a pink corset. The brunette came in a set with embossy effect fabric paints and appliqués to personalize her purple jeans trousers and jacket. i have a Barbie of the same series too. Me and my sister were really tiny when we had that gift, and we messed a bit. My mother had to paint all the trousers with yellow paint in order to hide some stains.
How I hated the white legs and molded shoes of this ballerina! But anyway is really pretty, even if the dress has suffered from time passing.
