Barbie Fashionistas #64 - Lovin' Leopard
This might just be my favourite curvy yet. I'd been wondering when we would get a red haired curvy, and now I've got one I'm not disappointed.
Her head (as well as the peach haired girl's) is soft so no glue seepage - this is the one thing Fashionistas have been consistently getting right, and it's incredibly reassuring. Her hair is great but it feels rooted rather oddly, and her hat, while nice, insists on falling off every five seconds. Don't get me wrong though, it's a great hat and really complements the outfit.
I've been struggling to find out what face mold she has. If I had to guess I would say it might be the curvy/modified Karl mold. My biggest concern with this doll is that her eyes are printed a bit too far upwards.
Her outfit is gorgeous, and though it is a 'dress' rather than two separate pieces, I see no reason why you couldn't separate the pieces. I especially love the leopard print skirt and the use of orange and teal. Usually leopard print looks tacky but changing the colour scheme really changes the look for the better. The whole thing feels very complete.
She has flat feet and her shoes have this interesting cut-out effect. Definitely more for fashion than practicality.
Overall I love this doll, but she'd be perfect if her eyes weren't printed so high up. Word of advice: if there are multiple ones of her in store, look for the one with the best face.
