When this doll was created; who knew the impact an 11 1/2-inch doll would have on the world?

In the first place, this doll has been a symbol of femininity and modernity. Check out my Look Like Barbie post to learn more about how this doll was created.

Since this doll is an icon in society; recently Margot Robbie decided to step into Barbie’s dream house. Because there are over 175 different Barbie dolls with different body shapes, hair types, and skin tones; Margot as Executive Producer wanted to reflect on this in the movie.

In addition to Margot Robbie, there are other actresses in the movie reflecting on Barbie’s professions. Also, Ryan Gosling is starring as Ken. And, there are several other male actors playing the role of Ken.

So, if you haven’t seen the movie yet; check out the preview below.
