Here is how she looks originally.

I love the head sculpt, but the body is not very articulated, so I ordered a third-party body from AliExpress. I just really love the ability to pose.

I ordered the MengF Black with 26 joints. Some listings include “2023” or “2022” in the title, but I think it’s the same body. I ordered the one marked as “2023”, but on the back of the body it says “MengF 2021”. I think 2021 is the year the mold was designed. Mattel does something similar. This Simone has “Mattel 2021” on the back, but the doll was created in 2025. So as of right now the year doesn’t matter, all these 26-joint bodies have only a single revision (unlike the 22-jointed ones!).

This body is not a perfect color match, but it’s not very noticeable. In the photo below, you can see that the original body (3rd) is darker than the MengF (2nd).

On the far left you can also see Claudette from Barbie Basics 3. I saw some people on the Internet mention that this body fits Claudette, but I think she is too light for it. On the far right is Simone from Barbie Looks 10. She has the exact same color. These two dolls aren’t mine, but maybe someone will find this information useful 🙂

Here is a close-up of the head on the new body:
