Step into classic '90s retail fashion history with this rare Special Edition Gap Barbie doll (African American brunette variation) from Mattel! Styled in authentic Gap casual apparel, Barbie wears cream Gap khakis, a white Gap logo t-shirt, a light chambray tied-waist shirt, a classic dark-wash denim jacket, a printed neck scarf, and white tennis shoes. She comes complete with a black Gap logo backpack, Gap cap, and a miniature Gap paper shopping bag carrying a new pair of Gap blue jeans ready to be worn.

This vintage retail collaboration comes packaged in its signature bright magenta pink display box with a navy Gap store background insert and woven cloth carrying handles on top. A highly collectible release for vintage Barbie enthusiasts, retail brand crossover collectors, or 1990s fashion displays!

Condition & Visual Inspection

Packaging Grade - EX: Pre-owned vintage boxed doll in overall excellent condition. The clear plastic display window is clean, clear, and securely attached to the vibrant magenta outer box frame. The box exhibits light edge wear, minor corner rubbing, and faint surface shelf scuffs consistent with age and storage. The original white woven rope handle straps remain attached at the top.

Doll Grade - MINT (In Box): Unopened and never removed from box (NRFB). Barbie, her Gap casual outfit, floral neck scarf, Gap backpack, cap, and mini Gap shopping bag with extra jeans remain factory-tied, unused, and pristine inside her original packaging insert.
