The image shows a Petite Barbie modeling a turquoise blue felt and cotton easy-to-sew sun dress in front of a garden of roses. The dress has a full skirt made of striped cotton fabric in multiple shades of turquoise blue. Its skirt is very short, coming to about mid-thigh on the doll. The bodice is a simple strappy bodice with darts. The doll's dangling plastic earrings match the turquoise blue of the felt bodice. The ribbon straps are made of 1/8 inch white satin ribbon. The doll has dark chocolate complexion and very curly black hair.
