In this gorgeous compendium which includes a ribbon marker and acetate jacket we see the evolution of Barbie interspersed with historically and culturally significant world events such as the first woman astronaut entering space in 1963 or the first woman running for president in 1984. Over time Barbie has taken on nearly 150 professions and represented more than forty different nationalities. Fashion-wise she has collaborated with more than seventy-five designers including Valentino Versace Dior Gucci Calvin Klein Prada and Givenchy. As it unfolds BARBIE THE ICON unpacks Barbie's magical ability to appeal to all.
