Good concept
I am generally pleased with the Barbie® Fashionistas™ line of dolls that reflect more realistic body types and come with a variety of skin, hair and eye color. Mattel markets the dolls as, “…designed to reflect the world kids see today”. I purchased #188 for my granddaughter; the doll has a realistic body type but a very short skirt and no underwear…really? Is this a role model we are trying to provide to young girls? I sewed a pair of lilac underwear to match the doll’s dress but I suspect most buyers will not do this. I’m certainly not a prude, but if we are to provide realistic role models for our future leaders, let’s not “cheap out” -- provide underwear for the dolls and a higher quality necklace for the #188 model that will not frustrate a young person because it’s never stays in place and frequently falls off. Mattel’s efforts to market dolls that more accurately reflect our society is to be commended---it’s a good start, but customers would be willing to pay a little more for better quality and more attention to details (e.g., underwear).

Horrible mistake
Bought 2 one box was empty
Looks great!
It is great to see Barbie exploring the different body shapes that people come in and implementing them on their brand, specifically one with wider hips, which looks more like momma. Additionally my daughter has throughly enjoyed playing with this Barbie Fashionista doll. She can be a little rough when she is playing, but the craftsmanship has held up extremely well and the doll still looks great!

Nice doll overall but the clothes choice was bad
New doll, daughter was thrilled to get this toy. used the clothes we received to change outfits, overall a good product. Very durable, could use a better outfit makes the doll look fat and not like the goal of making her look like a normal everyday woman

Pretty, but...
Okay, let's talk about this Barbie. I was completely surprised to see a more realistic body type doll. This is what my girls thought of her. 1. They said she reminds them of a grandma doll (Their grandma is a fuller figure woman) 2. They liked how she looked different. Now the one thing they did complain about is that all their Barbie clothes they have would not fit on her. Other than that they were happy with her and thought she was pretty!!

Great play for hours
This is a great Barbie doll that has kept my daughter busy for hours. She plays with her other Barbie’s with this and has this Barbie play as the mommy. It keeps her busy for hours and I love watching all the imagination that she has when she plays. It is very durable and can withstand her hard playing. I highly recommend

Chic and fashion forward Barbie gal!
The doll came about 2 weeks ago but I just opened her now and upon seeing her my eyes lit up! She is very pretty and elegant. She has long hair, medium skin and is curvy which I love! Her dress, shoes and necklace are very chic and fashionable. I like that she can stand on her own if her feet are spread apart. I honestly don’t have any dislikes about her, she is just a very beautiful and fun doll!

Lovely doll!
This is a great doll! She’s very cute and I love that her shape is more representative of an average woman. Her hair is well rooted and smooth, doesn’t tangle easily. Her outfit is well made and very on trend. Doll can be posed. My daughter loves this doll and thinks it is a great addition to her collection!
