Barbie’s still celebrating the BIG 50

Unless fifty is the new thirty, Barbie is one ageless babe. Though she’s making 50, she’s still a fashionable darling. To jubilate her big day, Barbie’s teaming up with who’s who in all things stylish to flash her pretty-in-pink appeal. Be on alert for collaborations by home décor guru Jonathan Adler and red-soled-heel genius Christian Louboutin.

To debut this December, Louboutin is populating limited edition dolls plus tiny shoes for Barbie. Yep you got it right, she even gets her own Louboutin’s, in color, Barbie Pantone 219 Pink. “I guess I always had a little ‘girlie side’ who liked Barbie,” adds Louboutin. “Barbie needs to wear great shoes because every girl needs to wear great shoes.” Touché.

The collector-set’s first release is Cat-Burglar Barbie …with three more to soon follow; stay tuned for what’s next with Barbie and Louboutin.
