Designed to reflect the world kids see today, this diverse line of Barbie Fashionistas showcases bright and trendy styles that make for endless storytelling possibilities.
• Meet the first Barbie doll with Down syndrome! Barbie partnered with the National Down Syndrome Society to design a doll that celebrates this community.
• Meaningful symbols are incorporated throughout her outfit, like butterflies - which are a symbol of Down syndrome - and the blue and yellow colour palette, which represents Down syndrome awareness.
• Her pink pendant necklace has three arrows to represent the third 21st chromosome that individuals with Down syndrome have, and they point outwards to represent rising up and moving forward.
• Barbie doll’s pink ankle foot orthoses (AFOs) match her outfit perfectly and support her as she walks, while her white sneakers have a zipper detail so kids can easily slip them on and off!
