TRAVEL IN STYLE GIFT SET: July 2001

Mattel released its second gift set featuring the updated "marykateandashley" logo. The dolls maintained their signature hairstyles - Mary-Kate with shorter hair and Ashley with longer. This set included the book Passport to Paris, three outfits for each doll, and a variety of accessories.

INTERESTING FACTS

• These dolls featured different hair lengths to reflect Mary-Kate and Ashley's evolving styles at the time - Mary-Kate's hair was shorter, while Ashley's remained longer.
• Additionally, Mary-Kate's look embraced just as much femininity as Ashley's. As she grew older, her tomboy phase gradually faded, aligning with the brand's shift from focusing on acting to emphasizing fashion.
