Can anyone help me find a doll from the 1970's?

I THINK I may have had one of these dolls!

She was a head shorter than Sindy, about the same size as 'Havoc'.

Think she was based on Britt Ekland or something.

NOT Britt from the Pippa group.

Think she had a light blue outfit, may have been an air hostess or nurse or a cat suit or something.

Ring any bells? Cant find on internet.

I think you mean Dusty. I had one. Loved the plastic smell of the plane!

I had a Denny. Though I cut her long blonde hair into an Action Man style buzz cut I think, so can't remember exactly what she looked like!! She had a tennis outfit and a wet suit with a dinghy, so quite cool!

I had a Dusty. She was a tennis player.

Until she was given an impromptu hair cut, then she was hidden in the back of a cupboard lest my mom find out I hadn't looked after her properly 😬

Oh I loved Daisy - was she something to do with Mary Quant? My Daisy had a white gloss dining table and 4 matching ‘S‘ dining chairs which wouldn’t look out of place now!

My sister had a Silkie that had long or short hair. I spitefully cut her hair Blush
I had a Havoc doll, she had a catsuit, air hostess uniform, I remember the geiger counter and orange Mae West. I also had a Jenny doll. Jenny had a Brownie uniform and school girl outfit.

Omg @grumpymummy72 I had that Bionic Woman doll! It was a hand me down from a cousin. I've never seen the programme so had no idea what the hell she was meant to be! And now at 45 I finally know!

Her arm had some 'computer' in it and that bag had teeny money and maps and a passport!

Why do all the dolls look like they have really bad fake tans? Poor Dusty looks like she's got a severe case of Rosacea.
