    Omg I wanna restyle your wigs so bad. I have Fashion Queen Barbie, and her hair looks "real" when style properly. Thank you for your videos

    I love your videos!, I have a Vintage brunet bubble cut coming in a week, I'm so exited. Bubble cuts are also my fave because of the resilient hair.

    The apple print sheath would have had a black and white Barbie label inside the dress because it came without the coat .The Easter parade dress would NOT have a black and white label because the black coat that came with the outfit would have had the Barbie label .

    My patterns for Barbie and Ken range from the 1970s to 2000s, with a lot of retro reprints. The ones for formal gowns are much too complicated for my home sewing skills and are still in their envelopes. The everyday wardrobes are my favorites. Your dress choice is adorable, especially with ric rac. Separates are easier for me as some of the current Barbie and Ken dolls are "stockier" than my 1970s dolls. How talented you are to match all those plaids.... I look forward to watching more of your videos. Thank you 🍄🍄

    The Blouse and Skirt are PAK items that were available in a variety of colors (1962-1963). The ensemble "Country Fair" #1603 from 1964 contains a unique set with a "Floral Skirt" and "Yellow Blouse" from the same pattern. It look terrific in my Bubblecut.

    I have reproduction of Roman Holiday - it was mint in the box, untouched for 30 years - but that was one of the problems, it's really really stiff. The other problem are the holes - I couldn't rid of them by steam / iron. And the biggest problem: the coat - it's stiff and deformed and it can't actually be put on the doll because the mesh lining is pulling and deforming the facing of the coat, so it looks really bad on the doll. She is holding it nicely folded across her arm, but I'm annoyed a little. And I fear of removing the lining... Like it's sacrilege. 😄😄😄 I managed to destroy Easter Parade's and Solo in the Spotlight's repro necklaces (they literally exploded because the strings were too old), so I'm afraid of destroying much more important piece... 😖 Sorry for ranting on the 4 years old video - I just needed to relief my misery... 😮‍💨😬😄 Of course - suggestions are welcome!

    I got this set many years ago and had to let it go. The striped fabric used for the reproduction of the dress and the coat were stiff from the beginning and they fit the doll funny. I have the vintage "Cruise Stripes" the dress/shoes/belt without the coat and accessories and it fits beautifully (real fabric & real zipper). Also, the crude plastic zipper on the back causes an undesirable bump on the back. I learned long ago not to buy "Reproduction" before seeing it in someone's collection or watching a video.

  • @SubjectDelta9
    @SubjectDelta97 ай бұрын

    The vintage version is stunning, but the reproduction leave much to be desired. I have the vintage set and the Leather Jacket is well tailored without extra "fabric" gathered in the front or overlapping. A smaller belt is enough to accent Barbie's waist. The leotard is made of a fine wool and when dressed properly, aligning the seems in the back like a stocking, the cork wedges fit perfectly, without issues. A misconception is that the stiff vinyl cannot be restored. There are two ways that I know, until I find the time to properly treat the fabric with mineral oil to bring it back to its natural state, I use a more practical version, I use the iron steam blast set for "jeans" 3 times over the coat and belt without touching the vinyl (gloves separetely) and like magic, it becomes malleable again long enough to dress the doll. The material will stiffen a little but not as much as when I first got it. This set looks Fantastic on my Titian Ponytail, it brings all the color alive. I do have some early reproduction made with so much care, attention to detail and quality materials, but lately, after watching so many bloopers in this department, I watch videos like this to see if, or when they found the recipe again. Thank YOU for a very insightful video.

    I really enjoy your channel! I'm an 80s/90s kid who git into vintage with the 35th Anniversary reproduction. My mom still had one or two vintage outfits, and a new hobby was born! Mod is definitely an adjustment. The lame, and brocade on doll clothes just did not hold up. Hence they're scarcity. But after I scored a major deal on the My Favorite Malibu doll, I had to get her another outfit to give her something besides Lemon Kick. Lol

    Cost and sales. Mattel has no reverence for their brand, they just want to make money. If they have to cheap out on a few “minor” quality controls, then they will.
