White stockings and flat, black shoes complete her authentic German look. Her long platinum blonde hair is parted in the middle and two braids are wrapped in thick circles above each ear. The pale blue ribbons in her braids match the beautiful blue of her eyes. Tiny 'pearl' earrings are her only jewelry. Polynesian Barbie wears a traditional Island outfit.
