The
fashion and doll were produced by Hasbro. |
She is shown with a cape and
purple flats for
shoes. Also, her tank top is white, she has no
hairbow and her sash
looks orange, not gold. The hair is not nearly
as long on the doll as
it is shown on the cartoon, she is sometimes seen
with an orange streak
in her hair, but no hairbow. Her make up is
also much more vibrant on
the cartoon than the doll, specifically the darker
red lip colour. |
Integrity Toys also produced this doll & fashion. | Integrity
clearly was more interested in following the cartoon than the Hasbro
doll, but there are still some artistic variations; the jacket fringe
that made it to both doll and cartoon was banished on Integrity's doll;
the cape that was only shown briefly on the cartoon didn't make it to
Integrity's version (as well as Hasbro's). One area where Hasbro and
Integrity agreed was to make the lapels of the jacket pink, rather than
blue. Some have suggested the dark blue of Integrity Danse's jacket is
*too* dark. The sash is fringed on the doll but not on the show. The
shoes are flats on the show but pumps for the doll. Lastly, I would say
the biggest complaint had to do with her hair, which is quite tame in
the doll version. The layers and bangs are about right but there is all
together much more blonde on the Integrity toys doll than there ever
was on the cartoon. It is somewhat longer and curlier as well. |

Trivia | This fashion is almost a direct copy of one
designed by Adrian, a man famous for working with the glamour stars
of MGM studio in the 1930s. The fashion was featured in the film Letty
Lynton (1932). In it the star of the film, Joan Crawford wore this dress.
The film was noted immediately for its amazing wardrobe and the gowns featured
in the film were copied and sold in many upscale stores to great success.
In 1936 the filmed was barred from being shown publicly as the plot of
the film too closely resembled a play by Edward Sheldon, Dishonored Lady.
The film to this day cannot be shown publicly and has not been released
on VHS or DVD, nor shown on television. Thanks to Matty for this information! | Credits | Thanks
