Barbie Princess gown looks like Belle in shiny yellow satin.
This Barbie Princess gown is like Belle's yellow ball gown she wore when she was dancing with the Beast--at least everyone at craft shows told me that as I was making this gown in the late 80s. It's made of a beautiful shade of yellow satin with a matching overskirt. The overskirt is hand-gathered in 4 places then trimmed with small ribbon roses or other small matching trim. The trim will vary due to availability and the shades of yellow may vary as well due to satin color availability. The short puffed sleeves give an off-shoulder look.
Can't you just see Barbie, wearing her beautiful satin Princess gown, pretending she's Belle waltzing with the Beast in the ballroom? You can stage your own production of everyone's favorite movie--all you need is your Beast doll, this gown and a pair of shoes for your Barbie!
A nice addition to your Barbie Princess Gown would be one of my Barbie Capes
