Heather Fonseca


The second release in the Designer Spotlight collection, the Heather Fonseca Barbie is an elegant beauty. Barbie's blonde hair is in an elaborate chignon - from the front it looks elegant, but it is rather big at the back - if this was on a real person I'm sure the weight would be causing her serious neck problems!

Barbie's dress consists of a fitted bodice made of black faille and is trimmed with black velvet ribbon emphasising her minuscule waist. The top skirt is made of luscious black velvet with multiple bustles on the right side, adorned with black organza ribbons, creating a flowing and full effect.The top skirt is longer in the back, forming a subtle train, and the top skirt is split in the front at the waistline to reveal a black and white foile print taffeta underskirt.


I like Barbie's diamond choker tied with a small black ribbon, white elbow length charmeuse gloves and black high heels.

Release date: 1 April 2003
Label: Limited Edition
Mattel price: US$49.98
Ebay price as at May 2012: US$90 - US$200
