Doll-Themed Washable Rugs

The Barbie x Ruggable Collab Shares Sophisticated Styles for the Home

— July 12, 2023 — Art & Design
Barbie x Ruggable collaborated on a fun collection of washable rugs that add playful yet practical accents to home interiors. Those who love hot pink as much as the fashion icon herself will resonate with styles like the Barbie Pink Ombre Rug and the Barbue Fuchsia Doormat.

From scented candles to playful furniture designs, Barbie fans have been treated to a wide range of ways to stylishly elevate the look of their homes in anticipation of the upcoming Barbie Movie. While some collaborations embrace the brighter, bolder side of Barbie, this one offers a more subdued approach and subtle references to the doll's iconic style. This is exemplified in the Barbie Signature Chevron Charcoal Rug, which references the Original Barbie doll from 1959 and her striking one-piece swimsuit.
