Hybrid Francie

Posted by Tracy in OR on 2/2/2023, 2:25 pm

I tried posting these yesterday for friends and family day, but I was having trouble with the upload. I know this Francie isn’t actually vintage, she is a reproduction. But I thought she would represent both friends and family day as well as vintage day. I rebodied her onto the BMR1959 petite made to move body. I had to trim the inside of her neck hole, because it was smaller than the post on the mtm body. And the skin tone isn’t an exact match, but close enough for me. I love how she turned out. She is dressed in a Fashion Avenue Skipper skirt and top, with a jacket that originally came on another fashionista, and petite Barbie shoes. ❤️💖

She looks adorable, and I don't think any skin tones match the new bodies. - Sandi M in Chicagoland 2/3/2023, 8:09 pm
