The Barbie brand is no stranger to collaborations as recently, brands and designers such as Vera Wang and [Moschino](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moschino-x-snoop-dogg) have created miniature looks for the doll to sport. Now, Barbie is taking a more artistic approach to fashion, by rocking tote bags, pants, heels and T-Shirts that feature Keith Harring's works. Some of the artist's most recognized images are featured in this line, including Radiant Baby, which is seen on the shirt. Meanwhile, Harring's colorful dancing figures are seen on the white heeled boots. The Barbie X Keith Harring line is available for pre-order online, and begins retailing at $120. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.6/10 - Popularity: 24% | Activity: 17% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Art-collaboration Fashion:** Opportunity for brands to collaborate with artists and incorporate famous designs into clothing lines. - **Iconic Toy Brand Collaborations:** Expanding collaborations between iconic toy brands and fashion designers to create unique and fashionable products. - **Art-inspired Collectibles:** Growing trend of creating collectible items inspired by renowned artists to cater to art enthusiasts and collectors. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Fashion industry can capitalize on artistic collaborations to create innovative and unique clothing lines. - **Toy:** Toy industry can explore partnerships with artists to create limited-edition collectible toys with art-inspired designs. - **Art:** Art industry can expand its reach by collaborating with fashion and toy industries to create art-inspired merchandise. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Art-Focused Retail Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mattel-2.md) - [Iconic Doll Accessory Collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbie-x-aldo-2024.md) - [Doll-Inspired Evening Wear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/azazie-4.md) - [Doll-Inspired Fashion NFTs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbie-doll-nfts.md) - [Glamorous Rockstar-Inspired Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/david-bowie-doll.md) - [Barbie Paint Collabs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/backdrop-x-barbie.md) - [Doll-Themed Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-barbie-movie.md) - [Art-Inspired Collectibles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-mattel-x-moma.md) - [Iconic Doll-Inspired Formalwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbie-x-azazie.md)
