Mattel Francie Doll - Japan Fashions 1967

While many of the USA outfits sold for Francie & same sized dolls were the same in the Japan market, there were some that were sold exclusively to this market or the outfits were slightly different, with different accessories than the outfit sold in the USA. 

If we find Francie Japanese exclusives (there aren't many), we'll show those outfits here.

Francie brocade gown #DS2240 1967 Japan only

1967 Francie, # DS2240, this is probably the most glamorous full length gown created for the Francie sized dolls, in was made from a gold and white brocade fabric with a halter top,  full orangish red taffeta underskirt with a big ruffle that showed in front, as the brocade fabric is slightly shorter than the full length in back, an orange sash that tied in back at the waist, white plastic clutch purse, short white tricot gloves, graduated pearl necklace, low soft white heels & an eyelash brush. 

The brocade fabric used for Francie's gorgeous gown is the same as was used in both Barbie's 911 Golden Girl 1959-1962  and  961 Evening Splendor 1959-1962 outfits, however, it has now been turned inside out.  Amazing that they had any fabric left over after four years of producing these two outfits.
