    Description

    I am pleased to offer this fun OOAK twist on Barbie's classic Enchanted Evening outfit. I got a REPRODUCTION gown and turned the original rose pink into a sophisticated gun metal -- that is official color of the dye -- or if you prefer, dark metallic taupe. The rose at the hip dyed in such a way as to leave the barest hint of the original pink with dark taupe edges, which I am embellished with silver glitter. Original plastic snaps. The gown will come with several accessories, which together produce a palette of taupe and silver gray and blue. (I'm hoping someone out there likes this palette!) First, a repro faux fur stole that I dyed to coordinate with it. The originally white fur is tinted a silvery blue fox shade and the lining is slightly more silvery and less brownish than the gown. Second, repro long gloves, close to the color of the stole lining (note -- the repro gloves are not finely made -- they are a little funky in the hand/thumb area, without much of a thumb). Finally, a clone vintage silver clutch purse (probably cannot be used with the gloves because you can't get it into the thumb gap of the doll, could tuck under her arm or not use gloves), a new paper tea rose in dusty blue, and new kitten heels in silver gray, embellished with silver glitter. You get everything shown in the last two pics.
    This gown is lovely but not perfect. The most significant imperfection is that this fabric did not dye super evenly.  There is variation is darkness. (Some gowns and dyes come out super even, some don't like this one, I never know until the dyeing is done. I do take that into consideration in pricing and reviewing Best Offers.) See all pics. An artful drape still gives you a stunning display.
    I am selling the repro faux fur stolen separately if you need that, too.
