A new wave of play dolls from Mattel will be introduced very soon, continuing the popular Dreamtopia line. This line highlights the theme of mermaids for the smallest Barbie connoisseurs, and perhaps this particular wave would not have received so much attention if not for one "but": this is the appearance of the "new-old" Odile mold, which has not appeared among dolls for quite some time Mattel.
In the new wave of Dreamtopia, two mermaids were gifted with this mold, also in variations with open and closed mouths and in two different skin tones.
The Barbie Odile face mold is named after the character of the same name, the evil sorceress from the classic ballet Swan Lake. This mold is known for its refined and slightly aloof look, which gives Barbie a sense of mystery and sophistication. The eyes are almond-shaped, with a look that seems to keep a secret. Lips are often delicately painted, adding to the overall attractiveness of the mold.
According to the reviews of numerous collectors and enthusiasts, this mold is very unusual and with its own unique charm, it departs from the more cheerful and friendly expressions that are usually associated with Barbie dolls. Instead, Odile's form offers a sense of intrigue, making her a favorite for those who appreciate a touch of mystery in their doll collections.
The Odile mold debuted in the early 2020s and has been used for various Barbie dolls ever since. Its appearance coincided with a trend towards a more diverse and refined image of Barbie, reflecting changes in the perception of beauty and the desire for the dolls' faces to be both glamorous and mysterious.
Over the years, the Odile mold has been used by collectors and enthusiasts for a variety of doll themes, demonstrating its versatility. Whether dressed as a high fashion model, a classic screen siren or a modern charmer, dolls with this mold exude elegance and allure.
Flight of Fashion
For doll collectors, the Barbie Odile mold holds a special place in their hearts. Due to the unique characteristics and limited availability, dolls with this mold are in high demand on the secondary market. Collectors appreciate the opportunity to own a piece of Barbie history that embodies a certain era and aesthetic while still adding a touch of exclusivity.
The Odile face mold reflects not only the evolution of Barbie's appearance, but also the evolution of the tastes and preferences of doll lovers. It's a testament to how Barbie continues to adapt to stay relevant and exciting in a world of ever-changing trends.
