Fashion loves Barbie…..so wrong it’s right!
The fashion world continues its love affair with the famous plastic doll we all grew up knowing so well, and who can blame it! Barbie being a beautiful Amazonian like creäture, with long flowing hair and legs to die for – a supermodel that never goes out of fashion and remains eternally youthful – a designers wet dream!!!
Milliner Stephen Jones is the latest designer to dress Barbie and on the 15th of this month he launches his collection of five dolls designed exclusively for Selfridges and with a Christmas theme in mind.
I thought it would be fun to look back at some of the amazing designers who have dressed Barbie over the years. Designers who include Azzedine Alaïa, Burberry, Comme des Garçons, Chanel, Louis Vuitton and Prada. xox
