In 2006 Charisma Brands re-released Candy Fashion dolls. The new Candies came with several impressive collections.
1.
"The Original Collection" is an authentic reproduction of Candy's original wardrobe from the 60's. In this collection of outfits she is ready to embrace every season in style. (The image for this post was taken from an old ad on iOffer website.)
2.
"The Camelot Collection" ... As stated on Charisma Brand's website, "Inspired by one of the most influential women of the 20th century, the Camelot Collection is an ensemble of some of the most recognizable fashions of a decade filled with potential and promise for the future. This period was idyllic for many in the world and remembered with pride. Candy Fashion continues to be known as the doll with “the most exquisite clothing."
3.
"The Groovy Collection" is an authentic recreation of some of 1960's popular fashions. "Paisley", "MOD" and "Flower Power" are this Candy's wardrobe choices.
4.
"Starlet Collection" . This Candy is ready for the red carpet in her three incredible classic outfits.

I love the Camelot collection! Very Jackie Kennedy in its styling. These newer dolls are very glamorous and their hair is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYes I agree, Charisma did a great job, and 18" is a perfect size for a doll. I miss not having long hair on the vintage doll, they all have shorter 50's - early 60's hairdos.
DeleteHer long blond hair and her 60's flowerpower wardrobe were the main reasons I bought "The Groovy Collection". She was my first Candy and opened the door to more research on these dolls and falling in love with them.
I asked Charisma is they plan to keep making new Candy dolls in the future, and they said that though there isn't anything new to report right now, they do plan to come up with new dolls in the near future. So that's good news, and we can expect more pretty dolls with fabulous outfits.
