Barbie Games and World Fashions


While I wandered down the girl’s pink aisle in the toy store the other day, I was impressed to see so many different kinds of Barbie dolls. Of the various sorts, I was most pleased to see the Barbie games that include the world fashions. The variety of dolls is impressive in its own right, but the costumes that are used for the world fashion Barbie games are very pretty and totally unique from what many of the other Barbie games are wearing these days.

Among the world fashions that I saw on the Barbie games, there were Barbie games from Ireland, Argentina and China. The costumes were all representative of the location, of course, and you can find Barbie in a kimono next to Barbie in a salsa gown. The skin tones and hair color of the dolls seemed to be right on as well for the location they were to represent, which made the dolls that much more appealing to someone interested in true global societies.
