Barbie will soon come in all shapes and sizes
Barbie dolls will soon crush body stereotypes by creating dolls that come in different shapes, sizes and colours.

The days of the skinny, tall and blonde Barbie are coming to an end.
Soon you’ll be able to buy this popular doll with more realistic body features.
Barbie recently announced that they will be releasing a new range of dolls which include 4 different body types, 7 skin tones, 22 eye colors and 24 hairstyles.
The body types include curvy, tall, petite and original:
Curvy


Tall


Petite


Original


The new range of Barbies has drawn international attention. Barbie even featured on the cover of TIME Magazine.
Barbie has also released a video for their so-called #TheDollEvolves movement. In the touching video a little girl’s opinion is that all Barbies don’t have to look the same.
“It’s important for Barbies to look different, you know, like the real people in the world.”

We hope the new Barbies will inspire everyone’s #SquadGoals!
