Barbie doll, fifty, and ready to walk the ramp in New York



Barbie,world's most revered fashion muse is turning fifty this winter. And what a way to celebrate it! The fashion diva has chosen the hottest ramp in the New York Fashion Week. The perpetually teen-aged girl will walk the ramp on Saturday about a month before its official birthday celebrations. The doll has long been a dream of many tender aged women who aspire to incarnate as the next Barbie themselves. But hormones and fat fills their bodies and separate them from their doll. Another generation comes fall in love with the doll but finally loses to its anorexic charm.
Worlds top designers have decided to indulge themselves in decorating Barbie for the extra special ramp.
According to AP News, Tommy Hilfiger, who will put Barbie in a hand-beaded white minidress, sees her Barbie as an American pop-culture icon that translates to other cultures and countries. There have been countless Barbies produced in the traditional dress of faraway lands, including a Korean bride in a hanbok and a Kenyan doll wearing wooden bead necklaces.
