May - Once in a Lifetime


A beautiful bride doll. Stunning!

Again, I could not find this exact bride doll. The only bride I could find designed by Robert Best was this one.

Maria Therese

This is an absolutely beautiful bride doll. It does not have any extra layers of tulle on the veil or the waist as shown in the sketch but it is SO pretty, especially with the long ribbons coming off of the bouquet!

Here is the excerpt from the Mattel website.


"Here comes the bride, and an exquisite one at that! Maria Therese™ Barbie®, the premier bridal doll in the Barbie® Fashion Model Collection, is the epitome of matrimonial elegance. Dressed in a sublime satin gown covered in organza trimmed in satin, a v-shaped back with tailored bows and faux pearl buttons, Barbie® makes a blushing bride. Her wedding day ensemble accoutrements include a mid-length veil accented with a tailored bow at the center, a petticoat, pantyhose, a delicate bouquet of flowers, and of course a blue garter. Faux pearl drop earrings, ruby red lips, and a sleek upswept bun provide the phenomenal finishing touches."

What do you think of Maria Therese? Is she in your collection? Let me know in the comments!

Next post is June 1st!
