Thanks for watching! Please let me know what you think of the dolls in the comments!
Wish they had made 60 year old Ken and Barbie dolls for their recent anniversaries. I really want a grandma Barbie 😂
I agree! I make custom historical dolls and not every historical doll I want to recreate is 20 years old!
@@leviblevins513 Exactly we need more body types I don't want to cover up a dolls articulation with clay to make the right body shape 😩
@@zoee1996xx Yes that would be SO nice! Hate to pull out the double standard but they released different heights and weights for Barbie but Ken still only comes in a one size and shape! I'd like to see more body diversity with Ken too!
That would actually be a really cool idea and pretty sure Beauty Inside A Box would agree to that as well as everyone in the doll community.😊
Yes bring back old fashion and old face molds for barbie but still have 2030 fashion. Barbie is not doing it for me boring
Barbie is clearly in need of new designers/stylists for their dolls cause whoever is in charge doesn't know how to make good looks.
Think of the children. If they gonna dress up like these Barbie dolls we are going to be doomed.
truuueee
I heard the head designer dropped out of fashion school like how are they gonna hire someone to design fashion even tho they dropped out of fashion school!!!
they should hire me lol a teenage failure could do much better than what they're doing
Yaeh totally,she look so cheat , like those who working on the night of Thailand ' street,🙄🙄🙄,oh lord help me!!!
LMFAOOAOAO
I wish they would go back to the old barbies from the early 2000s and even 90s. I'm glad there is more diversity in the newer dolls, and I love it! It just seems like the quality has gone down so much. Disappointing.
I wish they would too in terms of clothing! I've bough a handful of 2000s era Barbie clothes from eBay and they're great! The colours match and I can get pretty, sparkly dresses! Barbie fashions now -- especially for the males -- is tragic.
Have you seen the Barbie Private Collection? It was a deluxe line of Barbie doll clothes from the 80s, and they are INCREDIBLE. So many gorgeous coats and gowns, all of them collector worthy outfits, and they were sold for UNDER 10 DOLLARS. Modern Mattel would NEVER.
Barbies when I was a kid cost like $16 dollars, these are $7.89. Far more budget friendly, but that means you have to cut cost. But I'm glad there's a budget line for cheaper dolls. You get what you pay for, so if you want better quality, buy more expensive dolls.
Exactly
The Dreamtopia dolls are absolutely tragic. I feel like if they went with actual theming and distinct characters with cohesive designs and not just rainbow sparkle glitter vomited onto a generic mermaid doll, they would be so much nicer
It would also be nice if they had fully removable clothing.
I feel like the Dreamtopia dolls are like "we don't make anymore Barbie Fairytales movies, so here are some shitty fairies, mermaids and princesses for you instead :)"
The budget dolls from the Fairytopia line look better than the regular Dreamtopia fairies.
It saddens me that Mattel doesn’t really try with the fashionista outfits anymore, they should try to make some new barbie lines (like the barbie xtra those are so amazing)
fashionistas need a SERIOUS overhaul asap
It’s always been my dream to own a fashionista since I was a little kid, back when their quality was unbelievably good. Now that I’m a little older and could probably afford it if I really wanted to, I don’t feel that need anymore, which is beyond sad
@@thapelosishi Mattel should try to reproduce Barbies with soft flowing hair these mid-2020 before the year ends 🙏
I wish more of the fashionista’s would be articulated and have and have better clothes
@@lolleanne8022 you mean with bendeble legs?
I appreciate the diversity regarding the skin colors, hair and body types but the quality of the dolls themselves is very disappointing. No one wants to play with a doll with no articulations and the outfits are terrible! I think they were just trying to make the outfits as “unique” and eye catching as possible so a kid may take interest in them, but I can say with certainty that if the quality does not change... no one is going to want these dolls.
There are still people who like to play basic 5 of articulated doll
Retro fashion is always 20 years old. The 00's are coming back and those (us) who lived them are obviously gonna find them antiquated.
I agree! I actually think this line looks the "trendiest" they have looked in years, they´ve looked like forever 21 clearance fashions but this time they at least look up to date with the 00´s comeback
That's true I guess, but I feel like there were nicer looking combos they could have done if that was the goal? Like early 2000s Paris Hilton type fashion would be a cohesive aesthetic, but to me this just feels mish mash and not in a "oh I remember dressing like that" or even early 2000s Disney channel weird layering sort of way. It just feels like they found a stash of unwanted fabric and went ham.
Maybe the goal is to buy a bunch of dolls and then mix and match the clothes pieces into an acceptable look? 😄
I agree with this
I agree with you! The line is very 90s and I personally dig it!
where is the early 2k fashion? Please tell me because I think I´m blind becasue I don´t see it anywhere .
This dolls have a 2009-2012 fashion, a fashion completely out of date, nobody uses, at least the "fashion" ones.
These dolls and their outfits look randomly generated.
So true. 😄
Literally, this screams so loud
they're like randomly generated sims
Girl preach
sims 4 townies lmao
They give them loose clothes so they can "fit" to any body size, just a lazy thing just use stretch material
I assumed this line was intended to appeal to younger Barbie players: cheap and easy to dress. I imagine a lot of little kids don't even bother changing the clothes.
Elissa Powell right? Like the sculpts are beautiful but they are cheap for a reason they are not really focus to collectors is more of an actual play line but they are great for inclusivity
@Altoid Bazingá kinda, but not really - what kid doesn't want to grow up quicker, want the toys their older siblings have, and if a parent collects dolls, then those off limit dolls are the ones they want most. I remember hating baby dolls because I wasn't a baby, and was so upset when we were given "life size" dolls and mine was obviously a child, while my sister's was a young lady. I'm sure the creators of the Barbie and the doll it was based on were quite surprised that they became children's toys, but as a kid, it seemed crazy that there were dolls for adults lol
I don't mind Barbie having a budget line. These dolls being as diverse as they are and as cheap as they are makes them easily accessible and inclusive for every child. Not everyone can afford to pay $20+ dollars for a doll. So something less than half the price but still looks nice and is still part of the Barbie brand is welcomed. The quality is lower and the clothes aren't very detailed, but little kids like 5-7 year olds won't make as much of a fuss about it. They don't know what's in style and what isn't when it comes to the fashion world. They don't know what hair quality and material is better than the other. They just want a pretty and sturdy toy to play with. I'm not saying this to say not to criticize the Barbie fashionista line, but to say the target audience for these dolls are less likely to care about this and like someone else said, that's likely who they are aiming for. I personally love the Barbie fashionistas. Not too much for their clothes, but for their face molds. I use them to make custom barbies. I wish we had as much skin tone variety in their made to move line, though.
That is exactly why! They fit all body types! Stretch material is a lot harder to sew.
these outfits are so...random?? like i truly dont get it. i thought they might’ve been going for an 80s theme but not even! who is coming up with these?
A perfect idea for the fashionistas would be like a little playset, like they had in the 2000s, where you could print your own fabric and make your own barbie clothes for her. I remember a set like that, and I feel like it would really add a lot of fashion play to the doll.
They actually made a doll like that quite recently (5years ago?) . It had an app you used to design the clothes, and special paper to print on.
They should stop calling this line “Fashionistas”, for me they’re no longer fashionistas!
Yup they are basically only bought for new face molds now🤦🏾♂️
Inclusivetas
@A Caramel Rainbow!! OMG 2010 fashionistas were IT. They were so amazing and iconic
Same
@@bernardocomassetto yaaass!!! i love them!! they had very nice and glamurous outfits!! and fully articulated!! even the Kens had rooted hair!! i really miss that line.
Totally agree! Those dolls aren’t making any justice to the line “name”. They aren’t fashionistas. Extremely ugly and dated. The dolls are claiming for new fashion designers.
They should just retire the series and put more of their effort and creativity (if they have any left) on the fashionistas xtra line.
Accidental Alien Absolutely! They should focus on the development of the Xtra line. Instead of producing more dates and cheap looks for the “fashionista” line.
@@christianortiz7863 The Fashion Fever crew and the OG Fashionistas would look them up and down and be like "You can't sit with us". I can just imagine one of those nameless dolls asking Kurt or Courtney out on a date and getting laughed at to their makeup-less face🤣🤣🤣
Accidental Alien 😂😂😂
I just can't with modern Barbie and the fashions lately. Every so often you'll get something cute (I like simple, but am picky about colour) but most of the time the patterns are mismatched and the colours are garish and it's gross. Esepcially when it comes to Ken clothes. My male dolls are severely lacking in decent clothing. I miss the sparkly gowns, to be honest! I've bought a bunch of older Barbie clothes off of eBay for my dolls -- in part because I have a handful of Princess dolls and I'm not putting Elena of Avalor (and friends) in those awful patterns -- but also because I wanted the cute and sparkly dresses. I understand them wanting to be more "on trend," but why can't we have BOTH nice, trendy fashions AND sparkly dresses?
I like simple, i think i buy the cute dolls, im obsessed with the cartoon fashions i heard the super Mario ones are coming out soon.
Well, I understand that you feel disapointed about the new fashionistas. here's my explanation about them:
-Nowdays, 80's are trendy. I think it's like this since the "Stranger Things" boom. If you observe, there are a lot of products related to that decade: Wonder Woman 84, Ghost busters, SheRa's reboot, etc. And Barbie's fashion sense is partially based about real people interests, so that's why it's like this. Also, in another video, I see that the 2000's will be back in fashion, so you're not wrong about these clothes.
-These "potato sack" dresses are maded like this not because its's more economic and fast to create, but also they are also maded for Curvy Barbies. In "My froggy stuff" channel, I saw a lot of fashion packs where Froggy points that these clothes, for regular bodies, are usually "loose", but in the other hand, for Curvy Barbies fits perfectly.
In my opinion, I think they look like a "cheaper" version of the "Barbie Extra" new line, but I like the colors they wear! For me, usually it's the most important in a outfit.
That's all. Have a nice day! 👋🏻
Yes! Thanks for calling Mattel out! I’m so tired of their lazy designs and bad execution! People are still taking it easy on them and giving them passes. All other doll lines have been absolutely murdering Barbie in terms of quality, designs and value for your money. I honestly stopped collecting Barbie because it’s so boring and I’m tired of giving Mattel my money for bad products!
Amen! This! Same.
Can they discontinue dreamtopia already?? do they even sell???
I'm sure kids love dreamtopia .
The only people that buy them are 5 year olds.
@@lovelydolltime8006 5 year olds are meant to be the target audience for that line . The collectors are very often a small part that buys the toys , over 80% of the sale are parents buy kids dolls to play . That the main reason they will not stop makeing "simple" dolls for little kids .
I wish. The name makes me think they attempted Fairytopia 2.0 and failed miserably.
When I was at Walmart I saw zero dreamtopia
I’m personally so sick of the flat feet. So boring.
Saaaame
I also dont like them because they don't really have shoe packs for flat feet! I give Barbies away at Xmas time with extra accessories, and the flat feet girls don't have a lot to choose from!
@@tracyingalls2074 yea! They can only wear boots or sneakers
I'm hoping for new face molds for blonde molds. All the best, collectors !!!!!
Ik right
With omg and rainbow high fools pushing the boundaries barbie needs to step it up
to be fair these dolls are much cheaper then omg and rainbow high,soon as they go to the price point of rainbow high and omg then they do put more detail
@Optimus Prime i think there going for the younger market as well as cheeper parents. My sister would only buy a rainbow high doll in a thrift store or on clearance for her 5 year old. She recently had a mtm and broke that poor dolly's arm off. I dont think there budget dolls are bad but there collector dolls do need some more detailing
@Optimus Prime the market was strange for a while and it can get confusing to market as people nowadays will blacklist everything. While it may not destroy sales it can affect them in large ways.Also i know a couple of moms that detest mga because of there underwear design in the omg and nanana surprise dolls. I think theres diffrens types of kids and parents thats why mattel is struggling. As a adult collector i collect the different barbie faces and the cartoon fashions i do loves mga's clothes but the dolls arent ones id collect. I loved the bratzilla dolls and might collect the nanana dolls but im worried about the hair failing out and for 20 there really not cheep.
@Optimus Prime i think that superhero girls mh and eah were in a decline for a bit despite being collector favorites i did see them on sale more often then i liked so im my town atleast they werent selling as shluld even the bugget dolls were offten in sales or clearances areas witch is sad as i did love the line
I know its an unpopular opinion but I do truly wish they would stop the Fashionista line and start concentrating on making a few characters with amazing articulation and amazing fashions. I'd rather have a few amazing dolls I want to buy than a huge range of dolls I don't want to buy. I do however, want the three wheelchair dolls.
edit: I feel this is what MGA is doing right. They are bringing out short waves of dolls 4-6 in amazing styles. I just brought the retro single 4 LOL OMG. It probably cost more in my country to buy those 4 dolls than the entire Fashionista wave you just showed but i'd rather have the 4 :/.
those leggings on the first barbie look like something I would wear for my school cross country in 2012 XDD
Don't you notice mostly all the fashionista dolls for the longest time don't wear any pants mostly ,some shorts. Just nothing but dresses and potatoe bags lol . Still would be cool to bring out more than '90s dolls and modernize it still but still keep the vintage look at the same time
I've noticed that too! We really need to get some jeans and leggings in the fashionista line
Trousers are harder to fit on the curvy dolls, they wear the dresses as a cheap way to get around needing different sizes
Dreamtopia is actually just barbies with rainbows slapped all over them
yea
They’re so UGLY
Whoever is in charge of designing fashionistas at Mattel needs to really look at what modern fashion is. I feel like whoever is designing these, only knows fashion from the 90's.
For decades, whenever they designed outfits for Barbie and her friends, they flip through teen magazines and watch fashion shows to check out what younger people are wearing/what the hot new trends are. If they want some ideas, there is a plethora of inspo all over tiktok. Why is it so hard for this company to put in some effort???
They’re not wearing 90s fashion, but tacky early 2010s fashion
@@mem5091 Or a plethora of pajamas. 😂
@@so7780 No, trust me, there are some serious style icons on that app. Wouldn't hurt to give it a chance.
I wonder if all of the outfits are oversized/shapeless because the idea is that all the different body types can wear and share them?
They do all look like they walked off the music video for party rock anthem, though
For God's sake they really need to change the name of that doll line cause it's not Fashionistas at all
😂 Yes.... Grocery Store Barbie would work.
Its the fact Mattel only started nice diversity on a horribly disgusting quality and fashion
I feel like Isaac Larian from MGA put some of his spies at Mattel to sabotage Barbie. Otherwise I can’t imagine why the designs are so horrible and boring
Yes king your honesty is what I live for!!
The moment that barbie decided to be inclusive with the bodies and faces... The lost everything else. They are not a fashion doll anymore which is sad. She does not represent fashion anymore. Mga is were it's at now...
@Optimus Prime tbh the last barbie animated series was good, I just wish the detail was there. I have bought a couple of fashionistas but my mind and eyes always go to mga products at the end...
@Optimus Prime i know a girl in a wheelchair who has the wheelchair fashionista. Other than that not really. I do think it's nice that they're more inclusive but they definitely sacrificed quality for quantity
Its odd because we can live in a world where doll lines can be both inclusive AND fashionable??? And yet mattel doesnt care to do so
@Altoid Bazingá Hairdorables, Bratz, Fresh, and L.O.L.. I’m sure there’s more, but they didn’t sacrifice quality for inclusivity. (Bratz did in later years, but nonetheless)
Do none of y'all realize the dolls cost $7.89? They are less quality because they come at a cheaper price point. That's the whole point. They are a budget friendly dolls. It's not about being inclusive. That has nothing to do with the quality of the dolls. It's about how much they're selling them for and these are some of the cheapest brand name dolls you can buy. You get what you pay for. You want better quality, ask them to come out with a more expensive doll line for you. But this budget doll line doesn't need to go and y'all need to stop hating on it as an excuse to attack its diversity. The reason the quality is lower is because they are cheap dolls. The price point should tell you that. Growing up in the 1990s and early 2000s, Barbies weren't this cheap unless they were Dollar Store knockoffs.
Yes Mattel give us nothing 😍
While they are still trashy, I feel like this fashionista line is a step up from the previous ones. I at least find them more bold fashion wise and less bland and forgettable
@Optimus Prime whats with you and PC????????? politically correct doesnt equal bad. are you implying they should remove the different skin colors and face sculpts? cuz thats kinda fucked up,,,,,and kinda racists not gonna lie. also, eye catching and quality doesnt come cheap. if you want to pay ten bucks for a doll this is what you get. make up your mind and stop throwing around blanket terms you dont understand
@Optimus Prime It's the trendy thing. They will stop doing that the moment it's not profitable anymore. Like in my country for example, they don't bring the black ones because they don't sell well. People want the character Barbie. The fashionistas are only selling because of the collection factor. Most of the people I know think at least half of then are ugly and forgettable. Mattel had to do it because they would be crusified if they don't. When the focus was on the main character they could do a better job, but now they're getting bankrupt while having to be eco-friendly that means cheap materials and expending their profit developing ugly dolls to compel to people who does not even like them.
2:53 I actually really like this one 😳
9:11 oh this one is so pretty
10:08 puffy sleeves~
Overall, barbie got really boring in terms of outfits. I love, love LOVE the idea of being more inclusive but why do I feel like they are losing focus in how to really make their dolls fashionable. Why is it so hard for Mattel to make a doll that is both inclusive and fashionable? 🤔 And don't get me started with the quality lol anyways, love your videos!
@Optimus Prime That made me laugh for real. 😂😂😂 Seriously.... makeup and lots of it... and heels.... and glam stuff!
They should stop creating new fashionistas and just focus on the new barbie extras. People want the good quality.
That orange strawberry dress was their attempt at that famous strawberry dress and they failed! They really need to parody popular clothes instead of going with what they think is fashionable
And they couldn't even get THAT right. I mean, I get they couldn't straight up copy the dress word for word, but at least make it cute. Jeez.
Accidental Alien they literally could have done a dress in the same shape with Barbie icons or cats and it would look better than this
I'll pass on the Barbies, I'll definitely be buying some Kens though. I love that they're finally giving him some new body shapes
Whatever 60 year old man thats designing these needs to be fired!!!!
I think that I like your “negative” reviews the most because they are honest. It seems like most RUclipsrs are just pandering so that they can keep getting free stuff. I’m glad that you started making videos regularly again. Thanks! ❤️
I remember when the og fashionistas are actually worth buying, no weird joints, even tho not as flexible as mtm but still full body articulated, better face mold and better makeup, better looking dresses, even tho they look cartoony, but barbie is a toy/cartoon right? So it's okay, not a real human being and it'll give people a "magical" touch
When it comes to the fashion, bits of the early 2000's fashion is coming back. But they are more pulling from the 2010's area
Which was the worst, most awkward decade for fashion.
This new drop just makes me miss the older fashionistas more...
'we want the strawberry dress'
mattel: 'we have strawberry dress at home'
strawberry dress at home: 6:05
I love that you said "they're including people with different kind of abilities" instead of disabilities. It was really refreshing!
I come here for complete transparency in doll reviews. If it's not right.... it's not right. You always ha e a great sense of humor even when you give a thumbs down review. So appreciated.
I agree about the clothing, it is so badly fashioned and poorly made! :( The designs really are outdated! Dolls are pretty I usually buy them for to re-pain, re-root them! :)
I wish Mattel give some love to Barbie Stacie & Skipper by making them at least more articulation on ankle and wrist, more Stacie friends with different face mold and Stacie’s fashion packs as well because i love Stacie’s size.
I really hate what they've done to Skipper and Stacie. In the 90s, they were adorable! They had the cutest clothes and friends with actual names. Now, they're kind of just....there. There's nothing that stands out about them at all.
I still can't get over the fact that Mattel just straight up got rid of Kelly and tried to pass off Chelsea as the exact same kid but with a name change. Like they actually thought people would be cool with it.
Fashionista are getting ugly and uglier. I think that the previous wave was the worst ever. This one is not good, but I like the Ken and AA Barbie on the wheelchair. As you said in the video, the outfit are so ugly and cheap looking because they are cutting production costs as much as possible. That happens because in most countries Barbie dolls are not selling at all, they are on shelves for years.
this is a very honest review.love it..
we are consumers..we have the right to comment of our thoughts about our favorite products specially on quality..very honest.
So the Fashionsitas line has...shall we say...jumped the shark?
I definitely want the Ken in the wheelchair. Yeah for an articulated Ken. I'm so sick of how the barbies theses days don't even have bendable knees. I miss the make of the dolls from the 80s and 90s. Not a fan of the Mattel 75th Anniversary doll. I grew up in the 80s and that's too much "puff" for me.
They just reuse the stuff they have, I'm guessing so they don't have to spend money on new stuff or style.
I think so yeah. Like they'll ALMOST have an okay look going and then the shoes and accessory clash horribly. It's like they just grab things out of a bin.
That Made to Move Ken in a wheelchair is cute, just wish he had rooted hair.
That made to move Ken makes me wish Mattel would do a line inspired by the In-line skating dolls: full articulation, fun, colorful, detailed outfits, and the option to do both roller skating and ice skating. Such a fun line.
Mattel totally needs to stop calling them Fashionistas because there is no fashion here. I'd love to see them put more effort into the Xtra's line and just ditch the Fashionistas all together because they're garbage. I wanna know which Mattel employee comes up with sketches of the Fashionista outfits and thinks "Yeah these are amazing".
Pls.
I dont know what it is but the doll with purple hair was staring into my soul...
Also yes. Fashionistas are either ugly or boring. Which is a shame because some of the base dolls are very cute. If only they weren't in a sack with a ruffle and a fanny pack that doesn't even match.
ppl reviewing dolls aimed for younger audience will hype a toy up.
but being an adult collector myself it's different and we will judge a doll based on quality, I can't help this.
I'm sorry but Barbies today, I just ....there not the same anymore.
loved the new Disney line through.
I will be buying.
loved how you described kens arcade outfits, it made me laugh.
That's what it reminded me of 🤣
That first anniversary Ken is a nod to Derek from first edition Barbie and the Rockers, I think :)
Agree about the Fashionistas, though I love that they're starting to use the Kira face mold again - I may just get the girl with the afro.
Hey, you're right, he is a reference to Derek! And the blond one in the striped t shirt is a reference to Great Shape Ken!
Honestly, the doll with the Kira face sculpt just looks like original Kira - 90s Kira - pulling a Nikita Dragun and I just can't unsee it
Sadly i love barbie so much but i stopped buying them and started buying lol omg dolls. I love the lol omg dolls but they are so expensive too. I hope some new dolls come out..however i think ill still get a few of these because i cant resist buying barbie lol
We are extremely excited for the 3 made to moves, ESPECIALLY KEN!!! BUT they definitely need to up there game on the fashionista line, we love that they are more inclusive but besides the made to moves they are all very very boring, no play or collection value period, remember when the fashionistas actually had make-up and jewelry and were all articulated, I for one wouldn't mind paying extra for a better doll, they really need to change the name of this line to barbie basics and totally redo the entire fashionista line, remember when mattel went all out for xmas too, barbie in santa outfits, the pink xmas, now you get 1 holiday collector doll, come on mattel, listen to your fans!! We know you can do it!!!
I'M SO FREAKING sick of the molded top🤢🤢🤢
When he said potato sack I laugh 😂 so hard omg the shade hunny lol
When will ken made to move with a wheelchair release???
I’ve found like two barbie fashionistas I think are cute and actually have nice outfits. When I had a fashionista barbie as a kid 1. She was articulated and 2. She actually had a nice outfit! That whole point of the line. The fashions are plain and out of date they look like early 2010s clothing. I could confidently say I could redesign the whole fashionistas label and clothing. It’s so easy just look at 2020 fashion trends and go to Pinterest take inspiration from cute outfits!
they should just scrape off this line because it's an embarrassment to the barbie brand and its position in the market....just stop calling it fashionistas and call it "pedestrian"
I'm really excited for the New Wheelchair Dolls because Made To Move Dolls are starting to become rare over the years.
Why are their faces so bland
Because the soccer moms and feminists will reeeeeeeeeee if a girl made of plastic dares to express her femininity and creativity through makeup while being a paleontologist-astronaut-ballerina. Because if you want to prove you can do a job as good as a man, you can't be a woman.
@@accidentalalien4112 🤣👍🤣
You completely missed the references to Barbie and the Rockers and Malibu Barbie. I agree that the Fashionistas are not that fashionable in general but are more trendy sportswear at best. The “potato sack” dresses are probably an easy solution to the varied body types. The curvy girls have a limited wardrobe as it is and this is probably a way for a child to share clothes when playing. I’ve been watching your vids for a while now and I would recommend brushing up on your Barbie and doll history before the videos just a bit more. I understand that’s a time commitment but a little research now and again would add up to a much more informed video in the long haul.
Truth.
Thank you for being honest about Fashionistas. I think they are terrible. I wonder why Mattel chose to call them "Fashionistas"; I don't see them as being fashionable, they are just different from traditional Barbies.
Omg those fashionistas... they were just painful to look at. Ooh you should also cover the new Harry Potter Dolls that came out. They have Luna, Snape, and Voldemort with Harry.
7:32 I actually like this Ken he's really cute and the rooted hair is the biggest plus ever!! I wish Ken have the quality of rooted hair and articulation way back then 2012
Fashionistas have been God awful for the last 2-3 years now! Mattel needs to give it up!
Wow I'm gagging 🤢 the first fashionista new daring and unique fashion but these recent ones are crossing the line smh...
Hah you just said looks like she's shopping on kids section of h&m and I got an H&M ad. 😂 I'm screaming
What is with all the flat shoes? That tartan dress looks like a nightgown. Have you notice Ken rarely wears pants, it's all shorts? Why are all the white Ken dolls blonde with blue eyes? Diversity Ken!!
I feel like Mattel is starting to phone it in, they seem to be running out of ideas, just on the way out of the market. Just overall, not just Barbie, but everything they do. I feel like they're not doing their best work on the American Girls either. I'm so sad.
Mattel should just do a competition "design an outfit" and they would have some interesting pieces
It is kind of ironic that the only dolls with the "made-to-move" Barbie body type are the ones in the wheelchairs
“Another potato sack” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 “shapeless blob” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I LOOOOOOOOOVE the purple 80-90s t-shirt and shorts
Feels like they're throwing all their money at the molds because they're so pretty but leave nothing for the fashion :/
Totally agree with all your comments
You killed me with the bus pattern seats haha it's just that😂😂😂
The fashionista Ken on the colorful jacket is inspired on the Barbie and The Rockers Ken, I still have mine (my first and only one during my childhood), minus the jacket and the shoes, so it'll be nice to try to complete the look again :)
Can't agree with U more! Imho they can't be called Fashionistas anymore, outfits R so ugly, mismatched & cheap looking. Mattel seem to put 0 effort & no thought at all. I miss old Fashionistas so much, they were so cool, stylish & articulated, such a shame nowadays Mattel, such a shame..
Those fashionista dolls look like the creators tried to imitate some tiktok outfits, in an attempt to cater to 10-12 year olds. Especially with the failed cottagecore aesthetic one (purple hair).
Glad to see more wheelchair fashionistas, not only because of the representation but also because of the made to move bodies. Definitely getting the dark skinned on with the rainbow dress (I actually like that dress, it's supirsing cute for fashionistas) and maybe the ken as well).
As for the rest they're just sad to look at, honestly still feel like they make too many dolls in the line and should make fewer dolls with better fashions and maybe some joints. Seriously one doll in a cute outfit is way better than 5 in a potato sack imo.
The ONLY thing that saves the fashionista line from the trash bin is the fact that we can take their heads off and put them on the Made-To-Move Bodies...
Not even the clothes are worth it anymore
Edit: and of course the people on Wheel chairs. Those i will get
@2:55 What?! I think that doll is really cute!!! It’s so 80’s inspired. It’s such a Jem and the Holograms serve!
Why has Mattel gotten so cheap? I’ve gotten into customizing and have to go beyond the extra mile cause these faces, hair, shoes and clothes are basic and cheap! And there’s no articulation!
I have a love/hate for the fashionista line. Love that there is such diversity in doll looks, colouring, hair and body types and love the wheelchair dolls. Hate the lack of articulation, truly hate the fashions which are either ruffles everywhere or neon clashing hideousness. It reminds me so much of the eighties. For a cheap standard line I get the lack of movement but The clothes are so bad. And please, no more neon animal print 🤮
I agree, these dolls are boring and ugly. The only one I sort of liked was the second one. It reminds me of the 80s. Dreamtopia is trash. I like the colors, but the quality and molded clothes are a definite no for me.
The Ken dolls, like the one in the purple outfit with the colorful design, and the one with the colorblocked jacket were cool, especially the latter. Reminds me of the United Colors of Benneton line from 1990.
I agree i don't like these dolls outfits nothing wrong with the dolls its the clothes they are just ...ugh😣
lmao people act like these dolls are fashionable. They be like "omg they are so pretty" like???? Gurl bye, these are so cheap and tacky, get over it.
The one with the Afro and blue lipstick is gorgeous! I wish she had like some bell bottom pants, she’s giving me a really fun 70s vibe with a twist. That jacket is awful :( I feel bad because I think the dolls are pretty and I do buy them but the clothes are so tired
I so agree. I love that the Fashionistas line is so diverse, but I wish they were articulated. All of the clothing is awful, terrible in fact!! Barbie clothing has been crap for years. All these new fashionista clothes and fashion packs are unbelievably bad! Fabric choices, styles, and especially construction - terrible!! The Silkstone Fashion Model line was some improvement, but sadly they're dumping it. I am a designer and I do sew, so I know from were I speak. The BMR line ... YUK, and the new Extras line ...worse yet! Thank goodness for Integrity Toys fashion dolls. I may not like all of the clothing designs or styles, but they're a damn sight better than Barbie ... just sayin'.
About the Barbie with the rock shirt...I think the shirt is fine. If paired with jeans or generally a more simple bottom. and perhaps adding some colored hair and more edgy makeup...She could have been pretty decent
I don't collect dolls and I first watched your videos because of a moment of nostalgia but I fell in love with your personality. Even if the subject doesn't interest me I still play the video in the background to help increase your views and I never skip the ads. Small youtubers like you with such a kind heart and good sense of humour should be more supported and have more subscribers. Thank's for your amazing work and energy ❤
These barbies just look SO cheap. It's also super bothersome that it's part of the 'fashionista' line, when fashionista generally means someone that is VERY fashion forward, and they just shove all these dolls in potato sacks. The two ken dolls legit just look like they're wearing pajamas. It's annoying partly because things COULD be done to make some of these outfits work. Like the outfit at 4:00 , just ditch the sleeves, put ruffles around the bottom of the skirt and cinch it at the waist. It still wouldn't be great, but it would look less like a pajama top my grandma would wear.
I will say that I like the 3 wheelchair dolls though. I think those 3 are all dressed pretty cute.
I just LOVE your realness!!! You ALWAYS keep it 💯!!!!!!
Yeah the only good thing I saw here was that 75th anniversary dolls :/
Also the first two boys look like they got dressed in The Rugrats T_T
The first barbie would be cute if the pants were one pattern
