“Bringing to life a world of creativity and fun, the Glitter Girls help children find the sparkle hidden in every day”. Glitter Girls are owned by the Maison Battat Inc. company whose main operations are located in Montreal, Canada. The Maison Battat company also manufactures other doll lines such as Our Generation, Lori, and Baby Sweetheart. They are a family-owned business that was established in 1897 and have been growing steadily over the past 124 years.
For this review I am focusing solely on the Glitter Girls line of dolls, please read on for my full review.
What is included with the 14-inch Glitter Girls Doll?
The 14-inch Glitter Girl’s Doll comes with everything you need to get started. You’ll receive a barbie-style plastic body, rounded eyes, and hair that is styled in four different styles ranging from straight or wavy long locks down to short choppy-looking pixie cuts! Includes a 14-inch poseable doll, the complete outfit the doll is wearing, shoes, and a hair accessory.
With brown eyes, long wavy hair, and a dazzling personality, all you need is Keltie. The 14-inch posable doll wears a glittery power dress with sequin detail on the bodice and a skirt that sparkles with movement. Rinse her hair under the tap to match the color of your own locks or have it stick out for an even bolder look! Complete her style with any one of three starter outfits: striped tank top and jeans, denim shirtdress cinched off at the waist with gold ribbon belt, navy floral print dress from head to toe, pink lace nightgown flowing from its empire bustline—all specific accessories included.
