Barbie Fashion Show
Sheesh! I designed a game back in the '80s called Designer Jean that looked like this.
I used style, fabrics and patterns to design clothes and had them change with the seasons.
Vivendi Universal does it better, but I did it first.
Anyway, It's a well done game. You have more choices in designing the clothes; while you don't have
a very wide selection of styles -- you do have a number of design assignments -- school game,
pajamas, formal and the requisite wedding.
You design both front and back and can turn your model in front of a mirror to view your creation in 3D.
The runway part is cool -- designing the props and how the model will walk down the runway.
By clicking on the flashing Xs you can have your model do some cute action that adds a lot to the walk.
The animation gives you the feeling of really being there -- the swaggers and turns are fun to play with.
The final show is a cut scene with different camera angles and really looks professional.
Girls' dreams of becoming star models are currently hot on TV and this game
gives girls a chance to play with that dream without enrolling in modeling school.
