(Photo: Business It started in the spring of 1961. Ken® was new on the scene and love was in the air. Wire) Immediately thrust into the spotlight as America's fashionable power couple, Barbie® and Ken® have a timeless love story. Through it all, they have reflected the best (and sometimes worst) of pop culture — sporting each decades' trendiest fashions and hairstyles, plus launching careers that inspired generations of fans. During the '70s, the couple stepped out together with the grooviest hairstyles of the decade as Quick Curl™ Barbie® doll and Superstar Ken® doll. One of their most instantly recognizable looks, Sun Lovin™Malibu Barbie® and Sun Lovin™ Malibu Ken® made sun-kissed tans all the rage. Throughout the '80s, the couple continued to set trends with their big hair and flashy style as Dream Date™ Barbie® doll and Dream Date™ Ken® doll. They then concentrated on their acting and professional careers throughout the '90s, starring in 10 movies together and also tried new roles as Olympians, pilots and dancers — never losing sight of their adoration for each other. It wasn't until the new millennium that it would all change for Ken®. On Valentine's Day 2004, after more than 43 years together, Hollywood's quintessential couple decided to spend time apart. Creating a worldwide sensation, Barbie® began dating Blaine®, an Australian surfer who charmed his way into her heart. However, proving that true love stays in your heart forever, Ken® made a play to get Barbie® back in 2006. He enlisted the help of celebrity stylist, Phillip Bloch to impress Barbie® with a "Hollywood makeover." Although Ken® scored big points with Barbie® for the effort and new look, the two dolls remained just friends. After several low key, behind-the-scenes years, Ken® decided it was time to step out in a big way in 2010 — finding his voice in pop culture in a critically acclaimed self-portrait role in Toy Story 3, and through a social media frenzy on Facebook, Twitter and Foursquare, in addition to an all-new digital reality series, "Genuine Ken™: The Search for the Great American Boyfriend." With all of the hype, newfound fame and attention, he made sure that one pair of baby blues was watching him.

  • 60 Years of Collecting Barbie®! by Christopher Varaste
    60 Years of Collecting Barbie®! by Christopher Varaste Muse. Pioneer. Icon. That’s Barbie® doll, a fashion model whose stride down an endless runway inspired an entire line of quality collectibles for an astounding 60 years! An elevation of design and fashion, Barbie doll appeals to anyone interested in contemporary fashion trends. With her online presence, Barbie also serves as a major influencer. Barbie always encapsulates that intangible quality known as “style.” Under Mattel owner Ruth Handler’s influence and designer Charlotte Johnson’s tutelage, the world was first taken by surprise when Barbie was introduced at the New York Toy Fair on March 9th, 1959, along with her pink fashion booklet. Sales took off after Barbie appeared in a commercial aired during The Mickey Mouse Club™. All it took was one look and everyone wanted a Barbie doll! From the beginning, astute collectors recognized the ingenuity and detail that had gone into the doll and her wardrobe, which began to grow along with Barbie doll’s popularity. Today, those early tailored fashions are a veritable freeze frame of the era, reminiscent of Balenciaga, Schiaparelli, Givenchy and Dior. Many clever girls handled their precious Barbie dolls with care, and that eventually marked the beginning of the very first Barbie™ Fan Club in 1961, which set the stage for more clubs where Barbie™ fans could gather and make new friends. There was so much to collect! Nothing stopped Barbie from constantly evolving with hairstyles like Ponytails, Bubble Cuts, Mod hairstyles and an eclectic wardrobe that showcased the latest looks from smart suits, career outfits and go-go boots! Mattel advertisement from 1967 introducing Mod Twist ‘N Turn Barbie®.
