The final doll in the Classique Collection series, I waited until this Evening Sophisticate Barbie was reduced before I bought it in 2000. Barbie has pale blonde shoulder length hair and wears pink lipstick and has a beauty mole under her left eye. Her ears are adorned with clear and pale pink crystal drop earrings.
Barbie's pink satin bustier is edged with gold trim and her green satin skirt with a side slit is embellished with rhinestones. Her pink coat makes an impressive statement and is draped elegantly around her shoulders. I think it is a little big for Barbie's lithe figure and reminds me of the high power suits of the 1980s. She wears sheer pink hosiery and pink mother of pearl sheen high heels.
