Swan Queen


Second in the Classic Ballet Series, Swan Queen Barbie is lovely but I think she is overwhelmed with too many feathers. An African American version of the doll was also available.





















A strand of white pearl beads and feathers are interwoven into her middle parted brown hair with a “Heidi” style braided plat. She wears a silver crown and pearl stud earrings and I was pleased that Mattel made the effort to include rooted eyelashes.

Barbie’s tutu is white, her bodice is decorated with blue and white seed beads, sequins and feathers and she wears feathered armlets. She wears shimmering tights and white ballet pointe slippers.

Release date: 1 January 1998
Mattel price: US$29.99
Label: Collector Edition
Ebay price as at June 2012: US$20 - US$50
