Philipp Plein Rocks Barbie
PHILIPP PLEIN was selected to create a 50th anniversary Barbie Doll for the Feb 9th, 2009 worlds biggest toy fair in Nurenberg, Germany. The occasion was one-of-a-kind, so the aim of Philipp Plein was to give Barbie a glamorous and noble appearance, underlining her timeless beauty but still making a statement for a high end fashion queen. The dress, made of precious Jakob Schlaepfer Haute Couture fabric from Switzerland, was decorated by hand with CRYSTALLIZED Swarovski Elements. The PHILIPP PLEIN ROCKS BARBIE will now be available late this year as a 999 piece limited edition Platinum Level exclusive and only distributed at selected retailers in Germany as well as the House of Barbie in Shanghai and a very limited number in Canada and the United States. The silk dress will include 600-700 CRYSTALLIZED Swarovski Elements. All information is subject to change per Mattel including pricing.
