Now THIS is what a Barbie should look like. Glitz and Glam. ❤

The hair, the mug, the dress - that's the Barbie we remember and love! But that sad attempt of a ruffle on the new, ehem, "Barbie" doll is simply diabolical!

Absolutely gorgeous doll! Funnily enough… collectors weren’t happy with Barbie in 2009. I often see collectors bash Playline Barbie dolls in old forums from the 2000s & early 2010s. It’s quite fascinating because in retrospective those really were the most detailed Barbie dolls after the 1960s ones! You can dislike the aesthetic, but Barbie never had a more detailed facepaint & in many cases also that amount of details in her clothes or even articulation. I think collectors just always complain, even if something is better than what they had before.

So pink! so fashion! so 2009 I love! At this point, I feel like AI could design better playline fashions for todays barbies 🙊

Mattel has tons of money now. They can easily go back to these older and much cooler fashionistas.

Millie was looking good lately and then i saw that i was shooked

I had this Barbie as a teenager back in 2009 and she was so so gorgeous that she still remains a favourite among my small but growing collection. Gorgeous ❤

I agree with you , the Barbie Fashionista brand in the beginning was iconic and the dolls had basic articulation which I wish the current Fashionista line would have . The fashions are also incredible 😍 To me, opening an older new in box Barbie is more exciting than opening a new Barbie . Thanx for sharing 😊

Lets all thanks kim culmone for not letting designer make good designs

We miss her ❤❤❤😢

This is the Barbie I miss ❤ I love this first wave of the line so much but Artsy was like the standout for me.

Old Barbies are sorely missed 😢😢😢

Yes, Bring Back the Glam! I agree 100% The dolls today for the most part can be very basic and rather mundane. I buy as many vintage fashions and I can and redress my newer Barbies.

I was shopping yesterday I saw barbie fashionistas from 2016 and 2018 dolls I got to two dolls That barbie looks beautiful.

I have always love this doll..thanks for your video!!!!

The glamour barbies are my favourite which is why I have started collecting all the old fashionistas.❤

I have her too, and she’s one of my faves. I miss the glamour too… she’d have a whale of a time at the Barbie Dreamhouse pre choreographed party :)

Looooved the skit im the begining yaaas❤

I love this era of Barbie especially with the articulation! I have that cute “Wild” Fashionista you mentioned.💕

I have three dolls from this 2009 Fashionista line, I have Barbie Glam and Girly and Teresa Sassy. and they really were beautiful, I remember that the year they were launched they were a mega success due to their articulations, all the children wanted an articulated Barbie. But as not everything is rosy, this line has its problems. First the characters This line used the Barbie character a lot, and forgot about her friends, in 2009 for example there were FOUR Barbies, ONE Nikki and ONE Teresa. And that's because Barbie already had a group of five steady friends in 2009 Nikki,Teresa,Summer and Raquelle. But in general, the problem of using Barbie too much was not just from the Fashionista line, the Chic Line and the Glitz Line from 2009/2013 launched three dolls of the character Barbies instead of launching one Barbie, Nikki and Teresa. In addition to the Hairstatic line, which would be perfect with characters like Raquelle, but Raquelle doesn't even participate in the line and Teresa and Summer appear in an edition... the 2009/2013 era was very cruel to Barbie's friends. Finally, leaving the poorly divided emphasis that Mattel made on the Barbie line in 2009/2013, this wave of Fashionistas had horrible fabrics. I'll talk about the ones I had. Glam: her dress has economy on the back, the glitter on her dress comes off in less than a year, her dress peels off. Girly: her dress loses its color, the top of her dress tears by itself. Sassy: her skirt is an umbrella fabric, the reindeer underneath the skirt is economical, the Sassy doll comes with ugly glasses instead of a bag.

that specific fashionista i begged for as a kid and still have her today.. watching you unbox a brand new one gave me so many memories :D

Love this style doll the first fashionistas and Swappin styles!!! Your Glam doll is Gorgeous! I purchased a SASSY swappin styles from Ebay last year and she is really one of my favorites. I pose her with her beau another favorite Extra Fly Ken a very charismatic pair.

i miss this style of barbie

This is my favorite Babiedoll in the early 2000ts. She is my real Barbie.😉Nice grets from Germany too.

Shes so fabulous and iconic! ❤❤ i really want her but in our country shes so expensive and imposible to find you guys are so lucky to have a thrift store like if u want to collect dolls for cheap prices u just have to go to ur local thrift store! Ours we have to buy a new cheap millie dolls for expensive !

Beautiful I wish they will come back also my favorite of the line is wild💞😭

Now that is a real fashionista! If only we could combine the beauty and quality of the fashions with the diversity we have in today’s fashionistas (an oxymoron for today’s fashionista)

Love her hair

I just bought the Secret style Barbie from eBay and I just LOVE how cohesive and well thought out Barbie was back then. Too bad we probably won't see this EVER again 😭

😂😂😂😂😂 I totally agree with you honey ❤️😘😘💋

I WANTED TO HAVE HER SO BAD 😭😭😭😭😭

Back then and even in the 90s, barbie always had her hair done, fully glam makeup and fun jewelry and accessories regardless of the occasion. And you'd rarely catch barbie with flat feet (with an exception for some cheerleader, Olympic and sport dolls with the articulated gymnast bodies). Even when she wore sneakers, they were usually always molded to accommodate her permanently high heeled feet so she could easily switch back to the glamorous heels. *Sigh* Sadly, that's something I dont feel well ever get back with Barbie 😔

Just subscribed - started reaching for the subscribe button when you said “…another barn yard Barbie…” 😂😂😂 but pushed the button when the Thorgy clip played. 😍😍😍

Whew chile camy I want glam barbie not cheap basic barbie

Bahaha, I need an emergency Barbie!

I got her recently with Wild but I am quite curious because their bodies are part of wave one but without the chest articulation so I am curious on which manufacturing batch they belong.

🤗🎈🔥💕😍

The early era of the Fashionistas when they all had an adjective as a name had some cute styles, the ones I liked better were usually Sweetie and Cutie though... Glam was a bit too Nouveau riche for me... XDDDD But Sporty was always a brunette which was appreciated!

I just don't really buy new dolls idk old dolls are so common

She is beautiful and yes this is what Barbie should be BUT… Now that i have a 2005 Fashion Fever in my collection I see how mediocre the Fashionistas were I understand that seeing the new releases of modern Barbie everything was made in the past look better but honestly the early 2010s hyper feminine hot pink bimbo Barbie was a parody of herself As you also explained in your “Barbie flop era” video in this era we got only mediocre pink short sleeveless dresses so… Not the great quality, in fact I think Mattel added the articulation to compensate for the mediocrity of the outfits Don’t get me wrong, I wish we could get back the totally pink hyper feminine Barbie but Mattel can’t ignore that there are still many people that need an ordinary Barbie As I said in the comment under your last video, making two lines, a budget one with stiff bodies and fashionable clothes sold separately and another line with articulation and pink feminine outfits would make everyone happy

A Fashionista with both style and articulation to zombie bodies in frumpy t-shirt dresses..... what the hell happened?
