No serious Barbie collection is complete without the official Collector s Edition Barbie 2000.

Barbie 2000 is impeccably styled for this special year wearing a glamorous red and silver gala ensemble. Her contoured red gown is patterned with small red patches of silver sparkles and a scattering of silver 2000 logos. The halter neck of the dress is sustained by a rhinestone choker which accents large star-shaped gold drop earrings. The pièce de résistance is a floor-length stole of red and silver sateen. Her hair is styled in a huge formal topknot with side-swept bangs. Other accessories include hair adornments that match her earrings high-shine red pumps and a posing stand. A certificate of authenticity is also included.
