Back of the Box and Official Description:

It was a time of frivolous fun! For women in the 1920s driving about in a motorcar was absolutely liberating and dancing the Charleston was positively bohemian! Charles Linbergh flew the Atlantic…F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote novels…Isadora Duncan danced and Pablo Picasso painted. It was the Jazz Age and everything seemed topsy-turvy as the fashions of the 1920s reflected this change.
Hemlines reached the knee, which for the first time in western fashion became socially acceptable. With short skirts came dropped waists, sleevless dresses and short, bobbed hair. The gentle Gibson girl of an earlier generation was gone…her place taken by the flapper.
This is evident in the excitement of the roaring twenties Dance ’til Dawn Barbie doll.
Barbie doll epitomizes the style, fun and dashing excitement of the Jazz Age wearing a fashionable purple iridescent chiffon slip dress with a double layer of chiffon. Perfect for dancing the night away! A sash worn low on the waist features a swank rhinestone brooch.
Barbie has the newest hairstyle, a short, blunt bob perfect for her light blonde hair. She wears a fashionable headband decorated with sequins, beads and feathers to keep her hair in place while dancing the Charleston. To complete the ensemble, Barbie doll wears purple pantyhose and two-toned T-strap shoes. Along with her long beaded necklace and art deco earrings, she tosses a marabou boa over her shoulders, should the ride home in a racy convertible become too chilly.
Dance ’til Dawn Barbie is the second in a series of dolls highlighting women and the fashions they wore through the decades.

Barbie® doll celebrates the excitement of the “roaring twenties” in this fun lavender “Flapper” dress. Dance ’til Dawn™ Barbie® doll is the second doll in the Great Fashions of the 20th Century Collection. Typical of the fashions of the time, her dress features a ruffled bottom worn with a decorated hip sash. Barbie® also wears a beaded necklace and earrings. Around her fashionably bobbed blonde hair, she wears a purple headband with feather plumes. Her dress is further accented with a lovely feather boa.
