In an effort to boost diversity, Barbie creators have released new designs that are sure to include everyone.
Mattel, the toy’s production company, released a statement saying that “the brand wants to showcase a multi-dimensional view of beauty & fashion.”
The Barbie’s Fashionista line will now include dolls with no hair and another design that features the skin condition, vitiligo.
In 2019, the brand released a model with a prosthetic limb and another in a wheelchair. Other dolls in the line include braided hair and different body shapes.
Since 2015 when the Barbie Fashionista collection first launched, the collection has now grown to include over 170 diverse dolls. The two best-selling dolls in the UK, 2019 were in wheelchairs, reports CNN.
