Elizabeth Taylor Silkstone photos released!
I wrote about the Elizabeth Taylor celebrity Silkstone a couple of weeks ago and now we hear there will be not one but two Silkstone releases of Liz. I was hoping for a “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” inspired set with the little slip and….I got my wish!!! While the dress is not exactly a reproduction, it’s close enough and I will take it. It will be available in a giftset called White Diamonds. It will retail for around $150.00 and will be available in the fall.

The second Elizabeth Taylor offering is stunning!! It features Ms. Taylor in a gorgeous black gown inspired , I believe, by the movie Suddenly, Last Summer. It’s called “Violet Eyes” and will retail for around $130.00 . It will be available in the fall.
Love them both!!

Gorgeous!!! I of course, love the clothing and accessories a bit more than the dolls…but then, I’m an odd one. 🙂 Hugs.

Couldn’t agree more.

Omg I HAVE to have that perfume bottle!!! :)))

Heeehee! Don’t you just love those little accessories. Sometimes they can totally outshine the doll and clothing. I totally get that 🙂

After seeing the promos, I was curious to see your opinion! I adore the doll and was am slowly accepting the outfit choice! It is not radiant or glamorous as I had hoped for but it might do! I like that Barbie play around with outfits that Taylor did wear but added a few accessories to make it their own design! I probably will get the “white diamond” but the “violet eyes” are good too! I really honor The awareness of AIDS and Elizabeth’s contribution in the foundation but the red ribbon seems a bit “tacky” too me! It draws away from the outfit! Overall, I am excited!

I agree in that I honor and applaud the AIDS awareness symbol as she was such a vocal advocate for that cause. It looks like the red ribbon can be kept or removed depending on your aesthetic. Time will tell on that one. I am absolutely thrilled with both dolls that are coming out.

OMG..she is gorgeous!! This is going to be an awesome doll. The likeness is remarkable and the accessories are to die for. Cannot wait to get her

I know!!! Can’t wait to see these ladies too. I hope they will have the prototypes at Barbiecon in July. If so , I will be sure to share photos ( if I am allowed 🙂 )

Love her and thanks for the photos. I hope you do get to see them at convention and can take photos. So wishing I could be there too…I so didn’t want to sit this one out…but it seems like I’m on a pattern of every other year…LOL I am all about the accessories. I like the White Diamonds dress and accessories and the Violet Eyes Doll. Wish we could pick and chose. Guess I’ll go for both!
