Join us in celebrating the 45th anniversary of the first-ever Black Barbie with a doll that pays homage to her creator, Kitty Black Perkins. As Chief Designer for the Barbie brand, Black Perkins left a lasting impact during her 28-year career with Mattel. Among her many contributions, showing the true power of representation in toys was perhaps her most impactful. Our anniversary tribute stuns in a scarlet look inspired by the original 1980s doll and is bound to be the showstopper of any collection.

A FITTING TRIBUTE
By advocating for greater representation in the Barbie line, Kitty Black Perkins greatly impacted the Barbie brand legacy, and the dreams of generations of children.
BEHIND THE DESIGN
The vibrant red of the doll’s dress, along with her golden bracelet cuff and matching heels, are all inspired by the look of the first Black Barbie.
THE DETAILS
The doll’s off-shoulder gown features a sweetheart neckline and a cascading chiffon and satin skirt, complemented by gorgeous curls and a glossy red lip.
