Barbie wears a fashion inspired by the beauty of a garden. Her playful short dress is made of rose petals, while her wings mimic oriental lotus motifs. To balance the feminine energy of her dress, this doll sports a contemporary hairstyle and bold makeup, creating visual juxtaposition that makes you look again.
