Fashion Avenue for Teen Skipper

     In 1995, Mattel released some of the most detailed fashions since they first started making them. It was a line called Fashion Avenue and I was in love! I will be covering the Fashion Avenue line in future posts, but for now, I'm going to focus on the Teen Skipper line, which started in 1997.
     For the first release, six fashions were released, but two were extremely difficult to find. I bought the first four when they were released and found one of the remaining on eBay. I'm still looking for the last fashion, so the picture will not be mine, but from an invaluable resource for all things Fashion Avenue, http://www.fashionave.info/
     A quick note on Fashion Avenue: these clothes were the BEST! They had so much detail! The fabrics were top notch and the accessories were so cute! There fashions, for all of the dolls, were the cream of the crop and have been compared to the original fashions released for Barbie back in 1959 with the attention to detail.

Neon dress
Very citrusy! - this is one of the hard to find fashions
This one is the other hard to find fashion
