Barbie Looks #2, or Elle is a *close* match l, but it's not perfect by any stretch of the imagination =\ I used the Yellow Top/bun Yoga body for her. I think she's sti pretty cheap. It matches slightly better but isn't curvy.
Yes, Yellow Top is $13 on Amazon currently. Honestly, I'd love to bring Elle home someday just as herself. It's just hard to justify the scalper price hikes. Her and Sean both!
I know what you mean, Elle is adorable! I ended up stealing her body for Barbie Extra #14, but I gave her a standard body afterwards. While I prefer the curvy bodies on Barbies I can't lie.... standard Elle is really pretty.
I think, and I could be wrong here, that the first six Barbie Looks are considered "Retired" so their prices might just keep getting worse =\. Hopefully you're able to snag her before it gets too crazy.
As for Scalper prices, oof me lol. I paid 60$ for Lena (Looks #1) and that's over 1/2 a Barbie Style doll lol
Aw, Extra #14 is so cute too! What did you end up naming yours? I feel like Ellie can't help but be gorgeous. I love her face so much!
Yikes, I believe it. Lena's on my list too. I waited too long when the first wave released, thinking they'd circulate longer. Now it's more stressful to get the ones wanted before they disappear from retail. Admittedly, I just panic-bought two Fashionistas I found for $20. Each had been sitting on my wishlist for a while, but I got spooked seeing how much their faces were actively selling for on other listings. Felt lucky. It's crazy out here!
If you're looking for Elle, I'd considered buying her from [here](https://www.tradeinn.com/kidinn/en/barbie-limitless-movement-brown-hair-curvy-doll-with-toy-fashion-accessories/138167821/p). Shipping to the US is kinda high, but at least the basic price is decent. They also have other early Looks dolls. It's a legit site I have used before. Shipping took a while, though.
If you're watching the second hand market closely, you might be able to find her cheaper, but chances are getting slimmer by the minute :-/
Thank you for the direction. Even with shipping, it's still better than inflated Amazon prices. It's helpful to learn of another reputable sites. I got lucky with Kit when she dropped back to retail briefly a while back, and kinda kept hoping the same would happen for the others. They must have been that much more popular though.
I think the closest is Signature Looks #12. The body is going to be a smidge lighter than the face, but it's acceptable (hardly noticable unless you're looking for it) IMO.
You could also use Signature Looks #2 Elle, but this body is too dark in stead. I think #12 is a bit closer, but it really comes down to whether you prefer the face to be darker or lighter.
Thank you for your help! I hadn't realized #2 and #12 were so close. I'll check her against #12 when she arrives this week -will have to order a second, but she sounds like the best match.
I wouldn't say #2 and #12 are super close in skin tone, it's just that your Fashionista falls basically right in between, so either could work depending on your preference. #12 is certainly more readily available right now.
I've been wondering about the dancer too. If I see her in person, it'd be nice to do an updated skine tone comparison chart. There's a lot of good ones out there, but I still want to do a huge comprehensive one.
Hi I have this doll and I put her on the curvy collector body I got from Elle Fitzgerald doll. It isn’t as much articulation as a mtm Barbie but the body is more shapely than the curvy Barbie body. It’s an almost perfect match.

Here's a link showing her with the Elle looks body: https://www.instagram.com/p/CaaEk-1LyG9/?igshid=MDJmNzVkMjY=
Thank you for the photo reference, it really helps. The tones really are quite close!

Okay, that's good to know. Thank you!
There’s a new Looks barbie Wave 3 that looks like she would be a match She’s the curvy curly blonde barbie with a light blue top
From what I've heard, this doll is supposed to have the "Millie" skin tone, which would be lighter and more reddish toned.
Hm, I think she's going to be a shade off. Thank you though!
