Sunt fana inraita a serialului “Say Yes to The Dress” de pe Discovery Travel and Living. Ca sa fiu sincera sunt fascinata de rochiile de mireasa. Daca m-ar lasa cineva peste noate in magazinul Kleinfeld sigur nu m-as lasa si as proba tot ce se poate proba. Din acest motiv m-am hotarat sa incep sa va povestesc despre preferatele mele Barbie mireasa. Le voi lua evident in ordine cronologica asa ca astazi este momentul pentru Beautiful Bride Barbie din 1976. Va voi prezenta atat varianta clasica, americana, cat si frumoasa Superstar realizata pentru piata europeana.

Prima Barbie este cea realizata pentru piata americana si foloseste mulajul clasic TNT de care recunosc ca m-am indragostit destul de recent. Editia este un “department store special” iar rochia de mireasa putea fi cumparata si separat ca Barbie Fashion. Genele sunt reale, iar ochii mi se par machiati in genul vintage Barbie.

Editia europeana este realizata folosind atat mulajul de fata cat si corpul de Superstar. Ochii sunt machiati cu aceleasi culori, dar sunt albastri si nu verzi ca la editia americana. Rochia este si ea putin schimbata. Aceasta a doua foloseste dantela si pare mai conservatoare decat prima, acoperind mai mult din pielea lui Barbie.

Desi nu as purta in viata reala o rochie ca cea folosita in ambele cazuri (este batranicioasa) recunosc ca imi place mult Beautiful Bride Barbie in ambele editii si as investi banii in oricare dintre variante.

Maine revin cu un alt set de mireasa si vreau sa stiu daca voi aveti vreo mireasa in colectia voastra.

I’m a huge fan of the “Say Yes to The Dress” show from Discovery Travel and Living. To be perfectly honest I’m fascinated with bridal dresses. If someone left me over night at Kleinfeld’s I would surely try on all the dresses that I could. That’s why I have decided to start telling you about the Barbie brides that I like. I’ll start in a cronological order so today we’ll start with Beautiful Bride Barbie from 1976. I’ll talk to you about the American edition and the beautiful Superstar edition from Europe.

The first doll was created for the US market and it uses the TNT face mold that I’ve come to love recently. It’s a department store special and you could also buy seperatly the dress as a Best Buy Barbie Fashion Original. The eyelashes are rooted and the makeup reminds me of the one used on vintage Barbies.

The European edition was created using the face mold and body type Superstar and her eyes use the same colours as the American edition. The only difference is that her eyes are blue and the US version has them in deep green. The dress is also different. This one has a lot of lace and looks more conservative than the first one as it covers more of Barbie’s body.

Even thou I wouldn’t wear a dress like this (looks..old) I must admitt I like the 2 dolls a lot and I would definetly spend money in aquiring them.
