“Barbie is such an icon; how could I resist such a collaboration?” – Christian Louboutin

Barbie by Christian Louboutin*
Three new Barbie dolls being designed by French shoe designer extraordinaire Christian Louboutin to celebrate Barbie’s 50th anniversary will have slimmer legs and ankles after he decided they were “too fat”.
The Christian Louboutin series of Barbie dolls, inspired by Nefertiti and Marily Monroe, will release in January 2010.
The first redheaded doll in this series of three, which retails for $150, wears a sleek black catsuit with hooded headband and the ultra chic studded “Differa” gold sandals by Christian Louboutian.
Also, the limited edition Christian Louboutin doll includes three more pairs of tiny Louboutins: the black “Miss” ankle boots, bright pink “Claudia” peep-toes and leopard print “Altameche” knee-high boots. Each pair comes with Christian Louboutin’s signature red sole, miniature shoe boxes and cloth bags.
