Barbie in Pretty Changes #2598

AD-Free Blog

Here is my Barbie No.3 modeling in the park. The outfit is from Pretty Changes #2598 1979-81. I found in a mixed lot online. This outfit originally came with a blonde doll in 1979.

It's pretty complete clothing wise, but minus those yellow strappy heels

(the ones that are impossible for old fingers to work), the jewelry PINK-Why? rose jewelry, and a brown hair fall?

The pieces shown here, are the satin jumpsuit (nicely made, I may copy it for a pattern), a long sleeved jacket in lace, lace overskirt, extra ruffle scarf,-I have used for the collar, and the white netting hat.

I've paired it with a yellow purse/tote. I know I have a smaller purse somewhere, in Vickie's Vintage stash. Peeling off the jacket, she shows the versatility of the outfit.

The overskirt, makes a great cape. I think the scarf could be used on the hat also.

I love the jumpsuit. I want to make one in some white linen. Very nice fit through the legs.

It seems a little large for this Barbie, but then the 1970 Barbie was pretty busty. Every piece is in excellent condition.

Well that's the photo shoot for this going to be '60' Barbie. 

I think she is ageless, though and can wear just about anything, well!
