- Step 2: Buy the framework of the doll from doll stores or use your old dolls for practice.
- Step 3: Cut and design the dress for your Barbie. Your summer Barbie might wear a short skirt with a short sleeve blouse. You can also give an ideal summer look with a floral low-back mini frock. Choose light shades like yellow, pink, sky, white for a perfect summer get up. For winter dresses, choose an outfit that runs long. It can be a velvet fur coat or a stylish leather jacket with tight jeans. A wedding day Barbie must have a gorgeous showy attire like silken gowns with decorative accessories.
- Step 4: Select the right hair style for your Barbie. Though long hair suits all themes and costumes, you can try out different styles for hair like loose curls and perms for wedding Barbie. For summer Barbie, hair tied in a bun or pony with fringes in front and hair till neck looks pretty. Smooth long silky hair will go perfectly with the winter theme.
- Step 5: Choose the right footwear for your Barbie. Barbie on her wedding day will look best with white or silver footwear matching her wedding dress with pointed heels. Winter Barbie looks good with high leather or fur boots, and for summer, it can be a cool floater, light sneakers, or cowboy boots with simple socks.
- Step 6: Your Barbie can look prettier with accessories and jewelry. The wedding day Barbie can wear a perfectly knitted veil or a headband, stone studded earnings, and bangles. For summer theme, the accessories should be cool and trendy like a wide brimmed straw hat with colorful ribbons, cute headbands, and funky wristbands. For winter, you can design a woolen cap or a fur lined hat.
