Anche questo scialle è per la bambola:

Le misure?

(20 cm) di lunghezza per 45 di larghezza, quindi non proprio per la Barbie direi ma per quella che negli Usa si chiama :American girl doll , alta 45 cm.
Provate a cercare “American girl doll” ed entrerete in un mondo ..a parte , vi insegneranno a fare i vestiti ma non solo anche i mobili e le case.
A New York c’è addirittura un ristorante dove le bambine pranzano con le loro bambole:

American Girl Place

609 5th Ave
(between 48th St & 49th St)
New York, NY 10017
Neighborhood: Midtown East
American Girl Place non è solo un popolarissimo negozio che propone antagoniste di Barbie e Bratz, ma è soprattutto un’esperienza a tutto tondo: area shopping, caffè e dining (conviene prenotare con anticipo!), studio fotografico, hair salon, eventi speciali.

Il motto è: Just Like You. Proprio come te. In questo negozio troverete centinaia di bambole, divise tra bionde, brune e rosse, con i capelli lisci o mossi, con la pelle nera, bianca o gialla. E poi ancora: sportive, amanti della natura, eleganti, vintage, ed anche in guarigione. Tutto sta nel trovare la propria “gemella”. I prezzi per queste bambole vanno dai 30 dollari in sù.
Al piano terra troverete queste inquietanti teche degne del film Intelligenza Artificiale, quasi a dire alle bimbe: guardatele negli occhi, riconoscetevi e comprate. Vedrete quante bimbette newyorkesi spocchiose impazzite qui dentro, con tanto di mamme appena uscite da una seduta di botox!

Curiosate anche nei reparti di vestiti (è qui il vero business, perchè si comrpa il vestito uguale sia per la bimba che per la bambola!) e nell’hair saloon!
Comprate e pagate la vostra bambola, e poi portatela subito a tagliarsi i capelli come voi! Oppure, viceversa, potrete tagliarvi i capelli come lei! Ma non finisce qui. Ecco cosa propone il menù:
Orecchini con buco all’orecchio( ..per la bambola!) a soli 14 dollari

Pacchetto SPA completo a 12 dollari ,con scrib e fette di cetriolo sugli occhi ecc ecc

Con altri 5 dollari tutti i trattamenti extra per le unghie e il viso..della bambola!
Altro che giocare a mamma e figlia con il biberon!
