Customer Reviews

Beautiful addition to DOTW collection
This is a gorgeous doll and great for a young and/or new collector.The faux turquoise jewelry is a wonderful detail.Her facial feautures are lovely.It also gives some interesting historical/cultural information on the back of the box.If you like barbies, especailly native american barbies she is a nice,not too expensive, addition to your collection.

JUST ABOUT RIGHT
WE LIVE ON THE BORDER OF THE NAVAJO NATION. MANY OF THE OLDER FEMALE NATIVE AMERICANS WEAR CLOTHES LIKE THIS ON A DAILY BASIS. NOW WHEN IT COMES TO THE PRINCESS OF THE NAVAJO...HERE WHERE WE LIVE SHE IS USUALLY IN A T-SHIRT AND BLUE JEANS BUT WHEN SHE APPEARS AT TRADITIONAL CEREMONIES SHE IS THE CLOTHING OF HER CULTURE. WE HAVE LIVED ON THE BORDER OF THE NAVAJO NATION FOR 23 YEARS AND I FEEL AND WELL AS MY FAMILY THAT THIS BARBIE SHOWS THE CULTURE OF THE NATIVE AMERICANS.

DOTW Renaissance: Stunning / Beautiful Golden Eyes!
When I saw this (DOTW Renaissance) online I thought- oooh, she's a beaut'- but as I try to be selective with my barbie purchases, I thought - I'll wait till I can see her up close and in person... today I saw her in TRU, and there was no doubt I had to have her- I love Barbies with unusual eye color, and she has the prettiest golden eyes, and dramatic dark eye makeup. I also like that she is a brunette - calling this doll 'ugly' is just ridiculous. She has that classic beauty face. I like her much better than say 'Spellbound Lover' (whose costume is awesome, but her face is just ok in my opinion.) I wish amazon would do more face-closeup pix, I'd be much more inclined to buy dolls without seeing them in person if I could see a good closeup. note: why is amazon posting this under the hawaiian princess item I do not know, but I love that doll too!
