Bob Mackie 'Madame du Barbie' Doll

This is a 1997 'Madame du Barbie' doll, part of the prestigious Bob Mackie collection by Mattel. The doll represents a high-fashion, Rococo-inspired aesthetic, featuring an elaborate blonde updo styled in high-sculpted curls. She wears a magnificent pale pink gown crafted from brocade-like fabric, accented with intricate embroidery, beadwork, and iridescent sequins that mimic the extravagance of 18th-century French court fashion. The bodice is cinched with dark piping and topped with dramatic pink ostrich feathers or marabou-style trim at the shoulders. The voluminous skirt is heavily embellished with clusters of beads and sequins. The doll is presented in its original collector's display box with a blue backboard and pink trim. Condition-wise, the doll appears to be in 'Never Removed From Box' (NRFB) condition. The fabric and feathers show no signs of fading or pest damage, and the hairstyle remains perfectly factory-pinned. The box itself shows minor shelf wear on the corners but maintains structural integrity with a clear display window, preserving the doll's value as a high-end collector's piece.
