Vintage FAB-LU, BABS, Premier ? Barbie Clone BROCADE Sheath Dress And Coat

Description

This auction is for a stunning Barbie clone brocade outfit.  The dress and matching evening coat appear to be made for either Fab-Lu, Babs or other clone dolls and was probably made in Hong Kong.  This set was included in a vintage lot of authentic Barbie clothing that I purchased and the sheath dress only fits the very early Barbie dolls such as the Ponytail Doll who is modeling the outfit in these pictures.  The later model dolls such as the Bubblecut Barbie have a slightly larger waist and this dress won't snap closed on them.  This is why I believe the outfit to be authentic to the very early Barbie doll era.  The outfit is very well factory made and, as you can see, the coat is fully lined.   The dress has some fraying below the snap in the rear (pic) and the jacket needs some attention on one of the sleeve seams (pic).  The auction is for the outfit only.  Doll Not Included.
