Thank you so much for this episode! I am brand new to the world of Silkstone. (Honestly, I love just about everything Robert Best has a hand in.) Content like this is helping decide which ones I really want and what my priorities are! 🥰
I just inherited my grandmothers collection. I just opened a box of over a dozen Silkstone Fashion Model Collection! Including the incredibly beautiful Maria Therese. I can’t believe these beautiful dolls are mine now. I’m new to the collection world and am trying to find out everything I can about what she has!
Welcome to the doll community! Maria Therese is lovely! I almost ended up getting her at a convention a few years ago, but I dawdled and missed out on a good deal. 😅
When you can’t buy ‘em, make ‘em! Yup! That’s exactly why I asked dioramayogi to help me make a custom display unit for my Xbox-the Barbie display case I saw on Instagram was not for sale, but a ooak raffle prize. 😅
@@LifeinPlasticDolls I’m missing the teacher which sucks because I’m a teacher, the platinum violette, the nurse, dahlia, and stunning in the spotlight. Plus all the male silkstones. I really enjoy your videos keep it up, and thank you for sharing with us.
Thanks for the retrospective. Over the years, I saw these dolls on Barbie Collector, some even marked down (like the Palm Beach Breeze). I didn't buy them because, at the time, I didn't really like the classic face, and the prices still seemed high with the exchange rate and shipping (I live in Canada). Boy, do I now regret not buying at least a few! I just found out the line was ending about a month ago, and I have gone down the rabbit hole of looking at all the past dolls. Of the dolls in the first 10 years, I think the career series is the most interesting, although I have mixed feelings because it was a time when women were more oppressed. However, it does capture a bygone era in beautiful detail. For just beauty of the outfit, Lady of the Manor, Violette, Soiree, and Tribute are my favourites. It would cost thousands of dollars to obtain just those 4 from the secondary market, so I guess I'll be admiring from afar for now.
Yes, the secondary market prices are pretty steep, especially now that the line has just ended. I started collecting Barbie in 2011, and was not immediately drawn to the BFMC. I was not a fan of the nostalgic face, either. But it grew on me! I think my first BFMC doll must have been Betty Draper from the Mad Men series. Once I unboxed that doll and saw the quality of the doll and fashion, I was hooked. 😉
I don’t have the original 1959 doll. I wish I did. The number one Barbie is definitely on my wish list, but it will be a while before I can afford one. 😉
Thank you so much for watching! 💕 There will definitely be a follow-up video covering the second decade of BFMC. I will keep the lingerie dolls in mind. One of them is wearing the Honey in Hollywood fashion from 2007. 😉

Hi there! I am so glad that you have found this helpful! I will be making a follow-up video soon. 😊💖
Love the names! Blush Becomes Her!!!
I wonder what inspired Robert to choose that particular name. Could it be the movie Death Becomes Her?
Thanks for this informative video!

Can you do more videos of silkstone Barbie? I can’t find anyone that tell us about detail ms like you do. I also love your silkstone collection.
I shall try. They are reviving the line this year. 💕
I have 35 silkstone barbies and still waiting for new ones.
Lovely collections. Liked it. Happy New Year!
Thank you! 💖 Happy New Year! 🥂🥳
i love ur barbie artworks
Thank you for noticing them! 😊💕💖
Love the Closets!!!!! I mean wow!
The Wardrobe is such a lovely piece. I am so lucky to have one.
Love Showgirl! Reminds me of Vegas!
She is very Flamingo 🦩
Fab Beginning Yes!!!!!
We couldn’t have had a better debut doll than Delphine. 😎
My 3 holy grails are easily, 'Delphine', 'Palm Beach Coral', and 'Russian Mila'. I just couldn't afford Mila. I might have to make my own.
When you can’t buy ‘em, make ‘em! Yup! That’s exactly why I asked dioramayogi to help me make a custom display unit for my Xbox-the Barbie display case I saw on Instagram was not for sale, but a ooak raffle prize. 😅
I think the hardest part (with the Mila) is to paint the blouse using fabric paints.@@LifeinPlasticDolls
Love the bride!!!!
I almost bought Maria Therese at a Barbie Convention during room sales...I haggled, and ended up passing on her, and I regret it!
Love them All! Parang pageant of Dolls!
They are all very special 😊❤️
Love it!!! You sound Like a host In a pageant! Bongga!
🤣 Thanks! 🎙
Barbie at her Beautiful Best!
Thanks to Mr. Robert Best! 💕💖
Wow checked vest inside!

Stunning In the Spotlight! Love the black And pink! And the Red lip! And the vintage Mic!
A gorgeous doll! The mic 🎙 is so cool 😎
Love the kimono!
I have several BFMC dolls wearing kimonos right now. 😝 I’m obsessed with kimonos 👘
Gorgeous collection! Tribute is my favorite. A high glam sophisticated Cinderella.
Tribute does stand out. Thank you! 🙏🏻💕
The ken doll is exactly the one you show everything original
Love it! A Channel that celebrates Doll Collecting!
Yasss 😉
Delphine over here doing the most .
She is a hit 😉 Thanks Jeffrey! 💕💖 Love ya!
@@LifeinPlasticDolls teehee
I would love to see barbie's little sisters like Skipper , Stacie and maybe even Chelsea feature in this line
That would be cool 😎
Beautiful collection I have most of them I’m missing 6 of the silkstone collection and am very sad it will no longer be available.
Yes, it’s sad that the line has ended. 😢 Which ones are you missing?
@@LifeinPlasticDolls I’m missing the teacher which sucks because I’m a teacher, the platinum violette, the nurse, dahlia, and stunning in the spotlight. Plus all the male silkstones. I really enjoy your videos keep it up, and thank you for sharing with us.
I’m a teacher, too! 💖 Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Happy New Year! 🥳🥂
Stunning. Delphine is my fave 💜
She is a very special doll 💖
Exquisite
That is, indeed, the word that describes the BFMC. 😉💕
Fashion Insider Ken Yes!
He’s such a cutie!
BFMC Yes!!!!!
Truly the most astonishing Barbie series! 💘
Lady of the Manor Is like mango feel! Love the stewardess!!!!
Mango? Like the fashion brand or the fruit 🥭? The stewardess is so cool. I hope I can find one someday.
Joyeur! So Regal!
She is! Love that she isn’t so overtly Christmas-y
Tribute Doll!!!!! She’s Like a boquet.
She’s so frilly. Love it. 😍

Coral Goddess!
Goddess indeed! I love that the BFMC has a resort wear collection.
They have capuchin & lady of manor on mercari for $450 each
Wow. Still a bit steep for me. 😅
Do you have The The 1st addition Barbie
I don’t have the original 1959 doll. I wish I did. The number one Barbie is definitely on my wish list, but it will be a while before I can afford one. 😉
High Stepping
