Barbie: The Exhibition

This major exhibition showcases the design evolution of one of the world's most famous dolls: Barbie.

Enter the iconic Barbie universe and delight in over 250 nostalgic, rare, and innovative dolls and accessories dating from 1959 to the present day.

On tour from the Design Museum in London, the exhibition explores the story of Barbie through the lens of fashion, architecture, furniture and vehicle design.

Barbie: The Exhibition

Originally created to coincide with the 65th anniversary of Barbie, the exhibition includes

A rare first edition of the very first doll released by Mattel in 1959 ('Number 1 Barbie')

Dolls that reflect today's diverse and multicultural society

A section dedicated to Ken

And objects such as vehicles and furniture, including the first ever Barbie Dreamhouse from 1962.

Together, these items show how Barbie's homes, vehicles and other products have all helped to create the universe in which she exists. A universe that always reflects the tastes and trends of its day, engaging with modern design in an aspirational but accessible way.
