Not exactly a fashion parallel, but I wanted to mention the designer for Barbie Loves The Ocean, Carlyle Nuera, has stated that he intended for this lineup to be seen as updated versions of 1971 Malibu Barbie, PJ, and Christie! There was even a fourth doll planned wearing a t-shirt which references the original logo!
Anyone else see the new Ken fashion pack? It takes my Walmart months to get the new stuff so it's new to me!!
I just noticed my local Walmart got lots of new Barbie and Ken fashionistas. Especially the ones that were inspired by the first black Barbie and Totally Hair Barbie. Sadly the Totally Hair inspired Ken wasn't to be seen, and neither was the Ken I wanted.
Speaking of Ken, the outfit I mentioned earlier??
It's a dupe for Allan's original clothes! Of course I had to buy it. When I find that sweet faced Ken this outfit is meant for him!! But in the meantime I'm pondering my next purchase!
To commemorate the 10th anniversary of the James Cameron film, in 2007 Mattel released a Titanic Barbie, depicting Barbie as Rose DeWitt Bukater, standing on the front of the titular ship.
I really like the box design on this one - it is subtle, but very effective.
I haven't seen the movie Titanic in a long time but the dress strikes me as a fairly good likeness.
There are a number of other fashion dolls depicting Rose and other characters from Titanic, though not produced by Mattel (but that still show up on a search for "Barbie"). For example, there is an extensive Franklin Mint series, featuring the same red dress among a variety of others.
And yes, it is a considerably more extensive collection.
I desperately wish I had this Barbie!
Just when you think you've seen it all...
HMD, the company behind Nokia phones, is launching a Barbie flip phone in partnership with the brand’s creator Mattel.
While browsing for information on a particular Barbie, I was surprised to see Google recommend appending the word "controversy" to my search. The Barbie in question?
Breathe With Me Barbie. Breathe With Me Barbie is part of a range of self-care and wellness Barbies and depicts Barbie in a sukhasana pose, promising "5 guided meditations".
Unsure of where the controversy around this could be going, I clicked through. This seemed to be the root of it.
"Each pose is designed to invoke a Hindu deity in the spirit realm. I have seen children get possessed by demons. ... Satan is after the children. He wants to use them and indoctrinate them for his glory. Then, when he is done, he will destroy them. As your kids grow, they will get rebellious, depressed, and many will be suicidal. You won't understand what's happening as a parent. You must remove all toys and clean your children's room of all demonic attachments."
Various websites from Business Insider to The Christian Post to Newsweek cite Christian influencer (or, in the words of Business Insider, micro-influencer) Yasmeen Suri as being the origin of the claim that this doll is an agent of Satanism.
This would not be the first person to associate yoga with Satanism or possession - exorcist Gabriele Amorth also associated the practice of yoga with increased chance of demonic possession.
I can't find a screenshot of this, though, and all links back to the Facebook post are dead. What I did find though is a Patheos satire article dated shortly before the rest of these articles citing "Jasmine Blades" from Christians Against Eastern Religions as the source of the same quote.
Neither Christians Against Eastern Religions or Jasmine Blades are real, of course, hence their inclusion in a clearly marked satire piece. But I don't know where this leaves real Christian influencer Yasmeen Suri and her alleged (re)posting of the same quote picking up steam a week later. I don't know whether she saw the satire post and reposted the quote, to take it down later once she realised, or whether these articles quoting her as the source are misattributions. I'm leaning to the former, but I'm not actually sure.
There's a Truth or Fiction page debunking this, but what it is debunking is a) whether Breathe With Me Barbie depicts the practice of yoga (it depicts meditation, not yoga), b) whether this was a new doll in 2022 (it was not, it was released in 2020), c) whether yoga is synonymous with Hinduism and d) whether Catholicism or Christianity more generally prohibit or warn against the practice of yoga as a matter of doctrine.
For the record, by the way, there are Barbies that are explicitly depicted as practicing yoga, such as I Can Be... Yoga Teacher Barbie.
Or that appear to depict the practice of yoga on the box art, such as the Made to Move series.
Or dolls such as this Fitness Barbie who is depicted with various fitness equipment such as weights and a hula hoop, as well as a yoga mat.
Utterly unbelievable!! In no way, shape or form is any Barbie satanic!!
A number of media properties have had tie-in Barbies - ranging from classic films to current hot media properties. I have spoken about many of them before, but I can't help myself. I will keep going.
Over the course of a 4 film franchise, Twilight generated... like, a lot of Barbies.
Across the collection there were at least three different depictions of lead girl Bella Swan: human Bella from Twilight, bride Bella from Breaking Dawn 1, vampire Bella from Breaking Dawn 2.
Edward himself was also depicted as the awkward boy vampire from Twilight as well as the groom from Breaking Dawn.
None of these are a particularly good likeness in my opinion, but none of them fall to the comical level of Jacob, who they apparently determined was solely defined by being shirtless.
He just looks... well, naked. I wish they had at least given him a shirt to take off or an open jacket or something. He looks fundamentally unfinished.
But naturally the main three were not the only ones to be represented in Barbie form. Especially as the line continued, more and more supporting characters were released as Barbies.
For example, the rest of the Cullen family (such as Carlisle, pictured above).
Villain Victoria.
And Volturi representativeJane, who was really difficult to find because I couldn't for the life of me remember her name and didn't think "Twilight Barbie girl with hood" was a very good search term.
I had. Victoria, Alice and Emmett before I stupidly threw hem away on a whim. Something I'll always regret.

New NFL Super Bowl Champion Barbie Dolls: Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers!
In a unique collaboration with the NFL, Barbie is introducing two new dolls, each representing a team competing in Super Bowl LVIII: the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. Not only are these dolls a great addition to America's celebration of sports, but they are also a milestone in the Barbie collection, being the first Barbie dolls for NFL fans.
For many Americans, the Super Bowl is much more than just the National Football League (NFL) championship game, it is a deeply rooted cultur
1985 Barbie vanity and dressing table.
I remember wanting that so much as a kid!
I do get where people are coming from with being frustrated that Ryan Gosling is nominated but Margot Robbie isn’t, what with the film being literally called Barbie, not Ken.
BUT like... America Ferrera is right there? Being nominated for the equivalent award to Ryan Gosling? She delivers the monologue that encapsulates the message of the whole film. That’s more than worthy of recognition to me. And I feel like that’s being less focused on than the fact that Margot wasn’t nominated.
Now Greta being snubbed for best director on the other hand…
The patriarchy really does win because how can Oscar voters nominate Ryan Gosling as Ken but not nominate Margot Robbie as Barbie and Greta Gerwig for directing?
Very happy that America Ferrera got a nomination though, she deserved it!
I’m absolutely STEAMED about Greta and Margot not getting Oscar Nominations. 😡 This whole situation proves that it’s STILL a man’s world in the movie industry, and that it STILL may take a thousand Barbie movies to get that well deserved recognition. 😒😔 Nominations literally show girls it’s possible to get recognition for their work that might be deemed “silly” or unimportant because SOMEONE will resonate with what they do.
Like, imagine not nominating the woman who literally changed movie history in 2023, broke so many records and everything…only to choose one of the worst Actors/Himbos in film history. The Academy LITERALLY proved her point, and why she made this movie.
The whole point of the Barbie movie was to empower women and show that we are strong and capable in a very male dominated world, yet the leading actress and director wasn’t nominated for an Oscar???? Tell me you didn’t understand the meaning of the film without telling me.
The feminine urge to rip men to shreds for the rest of the year is rising after today. 😡🖕🏻
The Academy nominating Ryan Gosling but not Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig literally prove the point of the movie.
