Pickup available at Dear Village
Usually ready in 24 hours
Fashion illustrator Megan Hess traces Barbie's changing wardrobe from her 1959 debut through the decades to contemporary Barbie style. Created in collaboration with Mattel, this illustrated hardback selects more than one hundred fashion moments and interprets them through Hess's elegant artwork. Archival imagery and fashion commentary show how the doll's outfits have reflected and influenced changing ideas about clothing, identity and popular culture. This is a fashion and design book for people interested in Barbie's visual history, rather than an activity book.
