Dana, known as Sugar Shoes by her friends, is a Bratz character that first appeared as a doll in the Stylin’ Salon ‘N’ Spa playset and on-screen in CoooolTV.
Dana was initially considered the 5th member of the Bratz pack by fans, being one of the most produced Bratz characters outside of the core four along with Nevra, Phoebe, Roxxi, Meygan and Fianna.
