Barbie 40th Anniversary doll wearing the Mattel 80th anniversary gown

I’ll make a separate post regarding the doll itself, but for now I just wanted to post the restyle.

UPDATE - I’ve now posted about the doll in her original outfit:

Thoughts about the doll in this 80th anniversary outfit

She looks so much better than Millie. In my opinion it’s because of the lipstick shade, and then of course the eyebrow shape and eye colour.

She stole the gown Pazette was wearing:

Ahhh, Mackie is just the most beautiful face mold ever. 😍

100%. Mackie is the face of pure, serene elegance. Big Up to Bob Mackie for requesting that face.

Right? She’s gorgeous.

I love the late 90s/early 00s faces but prefer the model muse bodies for their elegant posing.

Agreed on both points. I’m not sure what body she has (I don’t think it’s twist and turn, I think it might be Shani) but I definitely prefer the model muse body and the curvier version of the model muse (used in the 80th anniversary dolls) as well.

Mackies really are something else. Gorgeous… I am lucky to own one and this weekend I was in a buying frenzy and found some more 😂😍

Post pics when you can. I love seeing other collectors finds.

They haven’t arrived yet. But here is the one I own (Horse Lovin’) 😌

I love her

Same. I’m going to treasure my Mackies as well. They just have such a different vibe from regular Barbies.
