	Comments/Fun Facts Other Versions of this outfit (may contain files larger than 100 kb, click at your own peril!) First Year only An On Stage Fashion It is named after a Jem song All outfit scans are the contributions of Rhonda Robinson! It was featured on the cartoon.  The photo (see left) used in both the first year Jem catalogue poster and the 1986 Hasbro Toy Fair Catalogue has several differences- the bodysuit colour is much deeper, the belt is a different texture, shape and is black, the scarf is missing the velcro and the shoes are bright pink! Another photo used in the 1986 German Leaflet,  (same photo appears in an issue of Topolino, and again in the 1986 Belgium catalogue) showing the outfit again in a deeper colour, no belt, velcro missing on scarf, hot pink shoes, and the arm band is made of gold lamé. First Year Package Art illustration is still off- the bodysuit is royal purple and the belt is black but otherwise looks right.
	The back of a card/box always says what is contained in the fashion.  The bold words in my descriptions are what Hasbro themselves stated came with the fashion.  INCLUDES; Red Violet Jumpsuit, belt, scarf, glove and pumps.

Red Violet Jumpsuit; once again, the typical spandex strapless Jem pantsuit, more of a dark pink/fuchsia in my opinion.    This body suit differs from the one from "Music in the Air" because it's a lighter pink, and the legs are about 1 cm or more shorter. There is a variant- the neckline can be either straight across or dipped in the middle (shown left).  I have been told there is a purple-blue version of this jumpsuit for this outfit.  (Information courtesy of L. Machacek)

belt; white iridescent "mosaic" type pattern, velcros in back.  Variation: "a black belt that is three belts together and rides the hips." (Information courtesy of L. Machacek)

scarf; gold stretch sparkle fabric (same as used in Twilight in Paris dress, and the glove to this outfit).  It velcros together.

glove; gold stretch sparkle fabric (same as used in Twilight in Paris dress, and the scarf to this outfit).  There is only one, it is handless, so it's more like a long arm band.  It can be differentiated from the ones from Runnin' Like the Wind because it is more like an arm band than a glove.

pumps; Gold Straight Edged Pumps, metallic.
