Barbie Expands Fashionistas Line With The Addition of Three New Body Types

Barbie has announced the expansion of its stylish Fashionistas line with the addition of three new body types – tall, curvy and petite – and a variety of skin tones, hair styles and cool outfits. The new 2016 Barbie Fashionistas doll line includes four body types (the original and three new bodies), seven skin tones, 22 eye colours, 24 hairstyles and numerous on-trend fashions and accessories.

Adding more diversity into the line continues the journey that Barbie started in 2015 when the brand added 23 dolls with new skin tones, hair colours and, most notably, a flat foot. The new dolls can be viewed online and are available to order now.
