The company Mattel, inspired by the success of the new line of dolls "Inspiring Women", does not stop there. This time the prototype for the creation of the toy was the extravagant woman of fashion Iris Apfel.
The doll, which very much resembles the 96-year-old style icon, is dressed expensive, pretentious, but tasteful. It has a green Gucci costume with a large blue collar and lots of accessories - big beads, bracelets and, of course, Iris branded glasses, round, large in black horn-rimmed frames.
Barbie's head is decorated with a haircut of a bean, but here the face of a miniature beauty is smooth and ruddy, without a single wrinkle. Users of the network noted that for her old age, Barbie-Iris looks fabulously young and it's a minus.
Not for sale, but for inspiration
The Barbie doll, dressed in the style of the legendary Iris Apfel, exists in a single copy. It is not planned to be released in mass circulation, but the corporation Mattel announced a collection of clothes for Barbie, Barbie Styled By Me, based on the clothes of the brand Rafa Avis, owned by Iris Apfel.
