Vintage Wednesday - 1962 Garden Party Outfit #931

I found this cute outfit browsing on eBay and decided to post on today... This outfit was sold as a set on 1962 for Barbies, very well representing that time when ladies used to wear these dresses, I thought was very cute.

The set was a dress, a pair of gloves and a pair of shoes. The original says Japan on the bottom of one of the shoes. These are the originals - picture
s are from eBay (the auction said the item was original and it was in a very good condition as shown on pictures)






An outfit with the same name was reproduced in 2000 designed by Robert Best: Garden Party Fashion




But the perfection reproduction was released this year. Have you seen this?

This is one of the outfit you get when you buy on of the dolls. Its a 2012 Mattel release designed by Bill Greening.

  1. It's a lovely dress... but I must confess I'd rather prefer the one by Best... it's all about the huge hat!
