The days are getting longer, nature is waking up from its winter slumber, and Barbie is kicking off the season with a blooming garden party. The Barbie Signature 12 Days of Spring Doll and Accessories Set is a delightful tribute to the charm of vintage aesthetics and the joyous spirit of spring. This carefully curated collection, labeled Gold from the Barbie Silkstone series, captures the essence of a bygone era, revealing the beauty of the season. The doll is available only on the Mattel Creations website for club members starting March 14, 2024.
Designed by the talented Bill Greening, this set promises collectors a unique experience, revealing one vintage surprise every day for 12 days. At the end of this magical journey, Barbie will be fully equipped for a wonderful and elegant garden party, complete with all the accessories needed to make the celebration truly unforgettable.
"We’ve rarely celebrated such an ‘Eastery’ looking doll on Barbie Signature" Нe goes on to explain that the previous "Holiday" collection touched on various holidays, but did not include Easter-themed dolls. Now, with the 12 Days of Spring set, collectors can finally experience the Easter spirit with Barbie in all her retro glory.
The centerpiece of this collectible set is Barbie herself, decked out in a floral print chiffon dress that exudes the vibrancy of spring. Bill Greening expresses his admiration for the ensemble, noting: "The floral dress is so frothy and I adore the brightness of the colors". To complete the look, Barbie accessorizes with a straw hat adorned with a charming pink bow, adding an extra touch of elegance to her ensemble.
The packaging itself is a work of art, designed by Vicky Hervorkian, Barbie's lead packaging designer. The egg-shaped bag is covered in a colorful floral print that adds an extra level of sophistication to the overall look. The 12 mini-boxes in the package are not only a smart way to reveal surprises, but also serve as a convenient place to store all of Barbie's fashion items and accessories.
Every detail of this Barbie Signature doll — from the vintage facial sculpt to the body type — exudes the timeless appeal of vintage Barbie dolls. The set includes both a floral dress and a pink calico midi dress, giving collectors a variety of options to showcase Barbie's springtime elegance.
Bill Greening emphasizes the cohesiveness of the entire set, noting, “Everything works in harmony together! The fashions, the colors, the miniatures, the package – it all tells a sweet, nostalgic story, celebrating the glory of springtime." Not just for collectors, this carefully crafted collection is a celebration of spring beauty and a journey into the magical world of vintage Barbie elegance.
The Barbie Signature 12 Days of Spring doll is a wonderful addition to the Barbie Signature Silkstone line, bringing the joy of spring in a beautifully curated collectible set. With vintage charm, meticulous design and a touch of nostalgia, this set is sure to win the hearts of collectors and vintage Barbie lovers alike. When Barbie invites us to think spring, she does so with style, grace and a touch of retro magic.
