Time for Dress Up!

If Barbies aren’t keeping your little fashionista satisfied, let her creative juices flow with a Harumika.

Already all the rage in Japan, the Harumika encourages creativity and design with a fashion kit, allowing them to showcase various looks. Included in each kit is a dress form, stylus tool, swatches of different fabric, and accessories. Girls will love mixing and matching the fabric to create new styles each time.

To create a look, simply select a fabric and wrap it around the dress form, locking it in place with the Style Lock System on the back of the form. Add on accessories to complete the look, with no cutting, sewing, or gluing required! Afterwards, she can take a picture (camera included in Runway Showstopper Set) and upload it onto the interactive Web site, and feature the looks in a fashion show.

Harumika is available in Toys “R” Us and Target stores and kits start at $5.99.
