My sweetie found this Barbie for me recently at an antique shop, well-spotted in a case full of dolls. He thought this was "the most beautiful one," and indeed she is lovely, with her flower-child looks and fantastic Mod Era dress. From
1972,
Walk Lively Barbie originally came with a platform which made her walk, swing her arms, and turn her head when the platform was pushed. The Mod Era dress from
1970 is called "
Loop Scoop," and is one of my favorites from the time period.
Groovy girl!
I always thought this Barbie face looked like it was inspired by Elizabeth Montgomery of Bewitched fame.
