Vintage Barbie Brides Dream
The Vintage Barbie Brides Dream is a beautiful wedding gown that has stood the test of time. The short sleeved white satin dress featured a full overskirt with a tiered chiffon panel in the front that ruffled to the hem. A delicate white ribbon bow at the waist and elbow length gloves completed the elegant look perfectly. The bridal veil was the same as Wedding Day Set. This exquisite wedding gown was and continues to be the epitome of style and fashion.

Bride's Dream replaced Barbie's Wedding Day Set #972 (1959-1962). I've always been partial to this one, as it is the one that my Barbie wore when she got married to Ken (over and over again).
Vintage Barbie Bride's Dream is fairly easy to find in good condition. Many of them are dingy to downright dirty, however I have had success in cleaning them. The satin bodice seems to have aged to a gorgeous patina over the years on most I have seen - although it can be prone to snags in the beautiful fabric.
