What is a curvy Barbie?
Curvy Barbie has a slightly rounded stomach, thicker legs, and no “thigh gap.” But the term curvy is a bit misleading. While not emaciated-looking like the original Barbie, she’s still quite thin, likely a US size 4 or 6. The “tall” Barbie has longer legs and is as thin (if not thinner) than the original.

What is a Silkstone Barbie?
Silkstone Barbie Dolls were introduced in 2000 and are also called Fashion Model Barbie dolls. The name Silkstone was chosen because they are made of a very hard plastic that is quite like silky porcelain. Many vintage Barbie collectors collect these dolls because they are so like the early vintage Barbie dolls.
Mostly, these dolls were revered because they had a very small edition size and that of course improved their resale value and their collectability. Most highly collectible Silkstone Barbies are the platinum editions ( limit to 1,000 or less edition size).
