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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aaliyah-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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/venus-williams-barbie). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 25% | Activity: 26% | Freshness: 22% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Life-Stages](https://www.trendhunter.com/life-stages) > [Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/toys) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Monochromatic-color Scheme Toys:** Opportunity for luxury brands to create high-end monochromatic toys with modern accents for affluent consumers. - **Couture-inspired Doll Collections:** Potential for fashion houses to collaborate with toy manufacturers in creating stylish couture-inspired doll collections for collectors and fashion enthusiasts. - **Celebratory Signature Toy Lines:** Chance for toy companies to launch special edition celebratory toy lines to commemorate milestones and attract dedicated collectors. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Toy Manufacturing:** Innovative designs in the toy manufacturing industry can cater to collectors and enthusiasts looking for unique and elegant products. - **Luxury Retail:** Collaborations between luxury retailers and toy manufacturers can open up new markets for high-end, fashion-forward toy collections. - **Fashion Design:** Fashion designers exploring collaborations with toy companies can tap into a new avenue for creativity and brand expansion. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Glamorous Collector Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbie-by-american-girl.md) - [Pink-Hued Furniture Collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbie-x-kartell-chairs.md) - [Glamorized Drinkware Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glamorized-drinkware-collections-the-barbie-x-stanley-collaboration-feature.md) - [Inspiring Role Model Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbie-role-models.md) - [Iconic Doll-Inspired Formalwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbie-x-azazie.md) - [Doll-Inspired Evening Wear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/azazie-4.md) - [Doll-Inspired Wedding Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/azazie-3.md) - [Barbie Paint Collabs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/backdrop-x-barbie.md) - [Cinematic Celebration Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-sleeping-beauty-aurora-doll.md)
