In honor of Disney’s 100th-anniversary milestone, American Girl Doll is waltzing to a place from once upon a dream with a trio of dolls modeled in the likenesses of iconic Disney princesses.
The Mattel-owned company has dressed the individualistic princesses in the dazzling attires they deserve. Not only are their outfits true to the films, but they’re also dotted with Swarovski crystals from head to toe.
Princess Jasmine, known for her adventurous spirit and compassionate heart, first graces the collection with her presence. The doll has brown eyes and long black hair styled in signature twists and a ponytail.

Jasmine’s flowy turquoise number is a vision of elegance and opulence. The sparkle-knit top boasts shimmery mesh across the shoulders, elegantly bound with golden lamé at the hem. Meanwhile, the accompanying pair of satin pants features a chiffon overskirt with an enchanting iridescent peacock-feather print, all studded with more than 100 exquisite Swarovski crystals.

Completing her majestic look is a glittery, iridescent turquoise headband adorned with three dazzling Swarovski crystals at the center. Shining, shimmering, splendid, indeed.
Next in the lineup is Belle, remembered for her love of books and her captivating curiosity. Her doll showcases hazel eyes that complement its long wavy brown hair, which is styled in a twisted half bun and a golden metal tiara.

Belle’s golden satin gown consists of a glittery knit-drape neckline, with intricate foil-print detailing. Scarlet rosette accents specked with embedded topaz Swarovski crystals add a regal touch to the ensemble. The bodice, transitioning gracefully into the skirt, is adorned with over 100 moonlight and light Colorado topaz Swarovski crystals, adding an ethereal sparkle to her appearance.

To complete her look, Belle wears golden metal stud earrings with crystal moonlight Swarovski crystals and glittery golden kitten-heel shoes with rosette details, accentuated with light Colorado topaz Swarovski crystals. Wish to place her near your books? Well, be her guest.

Rapunzel, the spirited princess with long golden hair, completes the trio. Her American Girl Doll has dreamy blue-green eyes and a cascading braid with delicate forest florals, and she dons a vibrant purple satin and pink taffeta gown that’s woven with all-over embroidery and iridescent accents. Criss-cross lacing detail on the bodice adds a touch of whimsy, while nearly 100 Swarovski crystals enhance the gown’s brilliance. A golden metal tiara embellished with amethyst and aurora borealis Swarovski crystals and six fabric hair flowers adorned with aurora borealis Swarovski crystals bring a royal flair to Rapunzel’s look.

Rounding off her ensemble are golden metal and amethyst Swarovski crystal earrings, as well as a golden sun necklace with an aurora borealis Swarovski crystal at the center. For a final dash of magic, her purple satin shoes feature golden metal sun charms with Swarovski crystal centers.
Each character stands 18 inches tall and comes with a certificate of authenticity. The dolls’ eyes open and close too.
With only 4,000 versions of each princess available, these American Girl Dolls might end up being a mere wish upon a star for some. They’re also on the more precious end, and will set fans back US$300.
In a similar vein, Disney has recently collaborated with Swarovski itself to launch 100th-anniversary crystal figurines, along with a real-life replica of Cinderella’s glass slipper.
