Evening Gala Barbie doll is an excellent reproduction of the fashion. I do have some quibbles with the doll, however. The hair is too soft and shiny, Mattel really needs to find a hair fiber that more accurately duplicates the texture and sheen of these vintage doll's hair. Also, I have an issue with Mattel's face painting on the vintage repro dolls in general. There seems to be an all-purpose 'generic' face paint/head mold. I think this is a mistake.What makes the vintage dolls so special is the variations between the different dolls. Side-part Barbie with Lifelike Bendable Legs (the vintage doll being reproduced here) was only available in 1965, and that doll had a coral lip color on the slightly 'jowly' face of the 1962-1966 'vintage' head mold dolls. This reproduction doll has the more pointed chin and red lips that are more representative of the earlier dolls. The shape and placement of the repro doll's lip paint is also not 100% accurate.To me a successful vintage repro doll is one that you can place next to a vintage doll, and have trouble telling the difference. That's not the case with this doll. It's still a beautiful doll, though, and perhaps others aren't as particular as I am. Worth buying, for certain.
