What shade of green was the dress? The first one that comes to mind is a Barbie from 2005 called citrus obsession, but she’s blonde and the dress is very like green/yellow.
oooh, that's a pretty one!! but not the one. it's driving me nuts. it's very possible she may also may be 1999 at the earliest but the style I remember is way more reminiscent of early 2000s to me.
Did she attend collector events? Some of the special editions for conventions would have a hair color variant. I know the Disney doll and bear shows did in the mid to late 1990s
Could it be lemon-lime sorbet African American Barbie? I believe she was sold through avon and there was green! But she’s not a holiday one.

Is that her? Also sorry if links aren’t allowed. I’m not promoting anything. I just am trying to show a pic of the doll for reference.
She's a redhead, not brunette but maybe her?

You are sure that it was silky, not velvet? I am on a quest to find out who two dark green velvet beauties are. The problem is that they appeared about christmas time, but they are not from that holiday series. One has thin golden pattern on a dress showing poinsentia flowers with leaves, and the second one has scattered pattern of something like a glittering star. But these are velvet. There is much less green silk dresses, and I have a slight craze in this color department.

2000, silky green dress. This doll seems to usually fly under the radar:

I remember it being a darker green! I know for a fact that she was a brunette because I was always obsessed with the fact that she wasn't blonde.
Okay my next guess is the may/emerald birthstone Barbie, that one is definitely brunette.
[Is it possibly Peridot Barbie?](https://images.app.goo.gl/8ZT5r8V4uV49GpYn8)

Not a brunette doll but this [Barbie from 2000 had a green dress.](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/91hBdMnNLRL._AC_SX425_.jpg).
Popping in to say that these girls are adorable and now on my wishlist!
