Barbie Doll Comfortable Jumpsuit Wear - Cream, Tan, and Gold-toned chains

This cream colored, handmade, jumpsuit was inspired by the need to create a comfortable wear Barbie doll outfit for an office setting diorama. I envisioned something light-colored, soft, flexible, and easy to put on and take off. I was able to find some durable, stretch knit material among my stash of fabric and away I went at creating this modern, classic, stylish outfit that looks great on Barbie. In this office setting, I decided that Barbie would be an accomplished music producer. So, I set about creating the gold record plaques by gluing gold, circular, medallions taken from extra large, dollar store earrings onto a graphic that looked like a music award wall plaque, which gave it a bit of depth and character. I created an over-sized magazine cover poster to put on the wall by taking a picture of Barbie holding a guitar and adding headline captions all around it. All in all I enjoyed making this fabulous outfit and creating the surrounding setting that made it come alive! Thanks for viewing the pictures!
