"Every year, the city of Rio de Janeiro erupts in a frenzy of music, dance, sequins, and feathers while the Cariocas (local inhabitants) and countless visitors celebrate carnaval! In tribute to Rio de Janeiro's joyous, week-long celebration, Barbie® doll wears an incredible Brazilian costume featuring a bright purple outfit with a striking, midriff baring halter top and a short skirt. Golden platform shoes and a fabulous headpiece complete the hot-hot-hot ensemble."
