1999 Millennium Princess Barbie was the first Holiday doll not in the Happy Holidays series. She was designed to welcome the year 2000 and the new millennium. She is wearing a dark blue velvet gown with center panel of glittering organza and silver lace. She has a silver tiara, necklace and an ornament. Her ornament was clear similar to a crystal ball with a ribbon that reads "Happy New Year 2000."
In addition to the African American version of Millennium Princess, there is also a Millennium Princess Teresa (A Toys R Us Exclusive) - Barbie's brunette friend. Teresa is the most limited of the trio. Both Barbies have their hair long with the front part pulled back, while Teresa has an updo.

The African American and Teresa versions are slightly higher - but not much. |
Hallmark did a Millennium Princess Christmas Keepsake ornament in 1999. There are both blonde and African American Versions. Barbie is wearing a replica of her dark blue and silver ball gown. She is also holding a dangling silver crystal ball in her hands. It was created by Hallmark Artist, Anita Marra Rogers. It can be hung on a tree or stand by itself.
