Hollywood Premiere

This doll is always mistaken for Marilyn Monroe, but she is Hollywood Premiere Barbie from the Hollywood Movies Star Collection. Her platinum blonde hair is perfectly coiffed, and her makeup is dramatic with smokey eyes, full plum lips and a beauty mark under her left eye.



Barbie wears a pair of diamond stud earrings and a matching gold and diamond necklace. Her floor length, figure hugging shimmering white gown appears to be strapless but consist of a sheer, long sleeve top with a rounded neckline. I think Barbie could get away with wearing a strapless gown and Mattel could have ommitted the sheer top.The piece de resistance is her thick and luxurious faux fur stole making Barbie look like a star that she is.

Date of release: 1 January 2000

Mattel price: US$49.98
Label: Collector Edition
Ebay price as at June 2012: US$30 - US$100
