  • Second Year only
  • A Flip Side Fashion
  • Fashion was named after a Jem song 
  • It's one of the rarer fashions
  • Thanks to Matt, Nancy Cerelli, Eliza, Brian and Rhonda Robinson for scans and info on this page
  • The Second Year package photograph of She Makes an Impression, (the same photo is used for the 1987 US Hasbro Toy Fair Catalogue, the 1987 France/UK Toy Fair Catalogue, the Second Year Jem Catalogue Poster) makes the shirt look a bit darker than it is, but otherwise looks like the produced version.
  • It did appear on the cartoon.
  •   The back box always says what is contained with the fashion.  The bold words in my descriptions are what Hasbro themselves stated came with the it;
    Includes: Silver coat/dress, top, miniskirt, hat, gloves, sash, hose, shoes and sunglasses.
    Silver coat/dress; The silver side looks a lot like Shana's 1st edition jacket (except there is a "belt" attached in the back) the other side is a fuchsia satin material with pockets. 
  • one of the very few "reversible" flipside fashions (they actually didn't use this gimmick as much as they could have). 
  • top: has no sleeves, and a turtleneck neckline. It closes with a long velcro strip up the back. The fabric itself is a semitransparent fine white knit that has a tiny silver thread running through the fabric.
    miniskirt; purple and tinsel threaded. (much like the skirt from Just Misbehavin' in style). 
    hat: made of same silver fabric as the coat. It has a band around it that is made of a lilac coloured flocked fabric, sewn to the hat at 4 spots. There is a piece of elastic that goes under the doll's chin to hold the hat on.
  • gloves; The gloves to this fashion and We Can Change it are VERY similar-- unless you had one of each next to each other, you'd never know the dif.  However, the gloves to She Makes are slightly more magenta (more of a blue base to the pink), while the gloves to We Can are bright fuchsia.
  • sash: measures 2.25" by 12".  Made of tissue lamé that has lilac and silver threads, which make it look like a microscopic checkered pattern.  It's made of two pieces of fabric, which were gathered and sewn in the middle.  There is no real texture or pattern to this piece, and because of it's very shiny nature the colour may not come through very well on the photo. Long enough to wrap around her waist and knot it once.
    hose: plain white tights.
    shoes: scallop edged, magenta coloured pump.  Colour has a bit of a blue base to it.  About the shade of the inside of the jacket
    sunglasses: lilac coloured, square glasses
