Barbie

The doll has been designed by Linda Kyaw-Merschon and Rebecca DeKuiper.

“It’s a once in a lifetime dream to have my own Barbie,” said Carey.

Ted, Keeley and Rebecca star in the line-up, with each doll designed by Mattel’s Suim Noh.

“We look forward to displaying a whole range of eye-catching objects – some familiar, but many never seen before – to showcase the evolution of design across the decades of Barbie’s world,” said Design Museum CEO Tim Marlow.

Ruth Henriquez – Head of Consumer Products EMEA at Mattel – discusses why footwear remains an exciting canvas for creative collaborations.

“We imagined what Barbie’s self-care routine would look like and created this range – meant to be used and loved by all,” said Melody Morton, Creative Concepts Director at Lush Cosmetics.

The doll – designed by Mattel’s Javier Meabe – comes in a bright pink dress with puffy sleeves and green snakeskin boots.

“Barbie You Can Be Anything: The Experience will serve as another example of Barbie’s commitment to inspiring the limitless potential in us all,” said Julie Freeland, Senior Director of Location Based Entertainment at Mattel.

The activation at The Corner Shop at Selfridges spans a fashion exhibition, merchandise and Barbie-inspired hair and nail services.

Included in the collection are a denim skirt and jacket, a striped shirt, a dress, cap and ‘KEN’ t-shirt.
