Supermodel Gigi Hadid is now joining the likes of Zendaya and Ashley Graham with a model Barbie created in her likeness by Mattel.
The Gigi Hadid Barbie sports casual items like crop tops and pencil skirts from the Tommy X Gigi capsule collection. In a photo posted to Instagram, the Gigi Hadid doll even poses for a selfie with Barbie herself.
Last year, Gigi and her sister Bella Hadid were also imagined as dolls for the Victoria's Secret Fashion show, but this new fashion doll bears much more resemblance to the iconic young model who now has graced the cover of Vogue 19 times. Of the many achievements one can be recognized for in the world of fashion, getting one's own Barbie doll is one of the most fun milestones.
