The fashion on the left is by Greenbrier International, a Dollar Tree toy company. |
Barbie looks much more comfortable in the Dollar Tree dress, plus I made her belt into a hairband. |
Chambray Chic Barbie nude, with an awful haircut. |
After Barbie put on her new dress, she got her hair trimmed so now the edges are even. |
I made a discovery by accident when I was at Dollar Tree. I found a $1 outfit that looked very much like Chambray Chic's outfit, but somewhat prettier. I bought that outfit and it was because of that purchase I decided to also buy Chambray Chic.
Chambray's original dress, a top that looks like a sleeveless denim shirt and a yellow skirt, is a little small on her. Her bizarre belts sit too high on her torso. And I do not like her black T-strap flats.
The Dollar Tree outfit is also a dress that has a sleeveless bodice that looks like denim, with a slightly longer yellow skirt covered with glitter, and a sewn-on-pink satin belt. Barbie can't wear the blue heels that came with the outfit, though, although she can use the purse.
One other detail--her hair was very jaggedly cut and is very soft and flyaway. I trimmed the ends so the hair would be more even.
I have a photo of the doll and outfit side by side NRFB, and one of Barbie redressed.

I really like the Dollar Tree fashion. I'm surprised Curvy Barbie can wear it. I will definitely have to make a special trip to the one near me to see if they have it. Keeping my fingers crossed. ZiZi needs something else to wear.
