The 65th Anniversary Barbie Signature doll collection has been unveiled by Mattel as a new celebratory toy that marks a momentous occasion of the doll. The doll collection includes two Barbies dressed in a couture-inspired gown in a monochromatic color scheme as a way to pay homage to the original 1959 Barbie and her black and white bathing suit. The dolls, however, feature a number of ultra-modern accents like eye-catching sunglasses, stylized hair and gloves to give it a formal yet funky profile.
The 65th Anniversary Barbie Signature doll collection is priced at $60 per doll with preorders slated to start being taken today ahead of the formal launch. The doll is expected to be a must-have amongst avid collectors.
