Check out our store for more vintage Barbies! On box: She was the epitome of beauty, a woman of grace, charm and perfect manners. Her waist was tiny and her skirt sweeping. She was a lady whose fashion sense and style were known all over America. She was the southern belle. It was the 1850's, and America was constantly changing. Everywhere people were making discoveries that saved time. The first iron Cunard steamer crossed the Atlantic in a mere nine and a half days, making travel to and from Europe a breeze. And the sewing machine revolutionized the garment industry - what once took days, now took hours. Frills, ribbons, pleats and bows were added in minutes. Let's journey back to Southern society in the 1850's and join Barbie at a party. She shines in her beauty as a lady of her day should. Dressed in a sweeping pink gown adorned with flowers, bows and loops of "pearls", she is truly the belle of the ball. Underneath her gown, a hoop skirt gives her dress fullness and swing. On her feet are the fashionable flat shoes of the day. Her rich brown tresses are pulled back by a floral headband. Her rooted eyelashes highlight her fine blue eyes as she flirts with the handsome gentlemen at the ball. The South is a land where chivalry is king. Men kiss ladies' hands and ladies blush accordingly. Southern Belle Barbie offers a glimpse of a Great Era in fashion history. A time when graciousness, style and the most impeccable manners are as fashionable as the latest hat. The South's lovely mansions with spreading magnolia trees, wide paved streets and marketplaces provide a setting of slow-paced gentility where Southern Belle Barbie charms her admirers now and for years to come.
