The first doll in the Great Eras® collection, Gibson Girl Barbie® doll represents the early 20th century. Wearing a long blue skirt, matching cape, white blouse, and cream-colored hat with ribbon accent, Barbie exudes all the charm of the era she represents. Hair curled in ringlets, rooted eyelashes, and a lacy white parasol with pink and blue ribbon complete this nostalgic ensemble. Historically, this ensemble is an accurate depiction of a Charles Dana Gibson illustration. Some Gibson Girl Barbie have been found with a "FAO Schwartz" label on the lining, so she may have been originally planned as FAO exclusive. |

French Lady Barbie, from the Great Eras® Collection, has hair gathered into a golden mesh headpiece and her lovely face is trimmed in tiny chestnut curls.
