Packaged in hot pink boxes, the life-size Sophia dolls look like real-life Barbies modelling the Sophia Webster Resort 2013 collection of wildly fabulous shoes. The shoe and handbag designer could not have picked a more perfect way to present her vibrantly youthful candy-colored shoes and bags.
For those girls who still love their Barbies and never stopped playing dress-up, this collection is sure to bring a smile to their faces as it rejoices in the playfulness of fashion. With its mix of Aztec patterning in delightful candy colors, pop-art speech bubble purses and bright plastic beads, it appears to capture the spontaneous style sense of a child not yet affected by fashion rules and inhibitions.
Dressed in pretty pastel dresses with unnaturally hued lips, the Sophia dolls make a great blank slate for the exciting Sophia Webster Resort 2013 collection.
