I should first say I am a long time Barbie Collector- since her creation, so seeing and reading new things about Barbie is wonderful and extremely rare. I did meet Carol Spencer at the 1992 Niagara Barbie Doll Convention and she is such a professional, talented, charming and beautiful lady. Her love of Barbie comes through on every page in this book, and this book is huge- 13 inches by 8 ½ inches, having 160 pages, filled with Ms. Spencer’s life long stories and gorgeous large color photosWe get a rare inside look into how Ms. Spencer became one of the main Barbie doll clothes designers for 35 years, since 1963. We get to read about how a Minnesota girl learned sewing from her Grandmother to a fortunate month she spent in New York City, giving her a solid designing foundation to go back to Minnesota where she designed children’s clothes. From designing children’s clothes to answering an ad from Mattel in California, came her dream job of a lifetime- designing for the world’s most popular doll’s wardrobe- Barbie. I absolutely love Ms. Spencer’s first hand made Barbie outfits which landed her the job with Mattel- in gorgeous large full color in this book.Ms. Spencer designed two of my favorite sets of outfits for Barbie back in the 60's- the Sew Free Fashion Fun outfits and the Color Magic Fashions. I loved the Sew Free Fashions as a little girl- sewing without a needle or thread- just glue strips that held the fabrics together. The Color Magic Fashions changed colors with those magic solutions- simple mixtures that dissolved in water, based on vinegar and baking soda. Ms. Spencer went on for decades through the 70's, 80's and 90's keeping my favorite doll dressed beautifully. My favorite doll in this book is the doll Mattel created of Ms. Spencer for her retirement in 1998- it looks exactly like her! My favorite outfit in this book which she created for Barbie, is her first creation which got her the job- now can Mattel make one of these for all of us die-hard Barbie collectors- that would be the icing on the cake, along with this fabulous book! Thank You Carol Spencer for sharing such treasures, of your life with Barbie, which I absolutely cherish! 5 HUGE STARS. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2024* Dressing Barbie, ebook edition.
