Velvet Interlude by These Dreams. Is This A Barbie?

by Mucie
(Tracy, CA USA)

This doll has a purple velvet coat dress with goldlish bodysuit underneath also of velvet.There's a tag on her left wrist that says "These Dreams". Also inside of the box is a paper that says "Authentic One Of A Kind Creation, Velvet Interlude by These Dreams" There is also a signature with the date "2000" in what seems to be a blue felt pen. On the outside of the box is another label that states the same thing but with a face picture of the doll. There are no markings or dates on the doll.

Hi Mucie -
It looks like a Barbie to me. There are doll artists who create "one of a kind" Barbie dolls by creating a special ensemble, repainting their face and/or styling (or re-rooting) their hair. It seems that is what you have. The value of each doll depends on the artist's reputation and the demand for their work. The overall demand for and value of one-of-a-kind Barbie dolls has diminished greatly over the last 10 years.
