Barbie is a fashion doll created by American businesswoman Ruth Handler, manufactured by American toy company Mattel and launched in 1959. The toy is the figurehead of the Barbie brand that includes a range of fashion dolls and accessories.

Barbie is the most diverse fashion doll on the market. Barbie is sold in 150 countries worldwide. Barbie has products in over 50 categories, including food, fitness, and clothing. The Barbie brand has over 99% brand awareness globally.

Barbie is an 11-inch- (29-cm-) tall plastic doll with the figure of an adult woman that was originally modeled on the Lilli doll (produced in West Germany from 1955 to 1964), a risqué gag gift for men. The Barbie target demographic is young children.

Barbie (2023 movie) Margot Robbie, also an executive producer, leads the musical comedy as Stereotypical Barbie, who experiences a full on existential crisis and embarks on a journey of self discovery. Along for the ride is her beau Ken, played by Ryan Gosling.

Apparently, Barbie will never get married. According to the wishes of Barbie creator Ruth Handler, part of Barbie's appeal to young children was that she defied patriarchal norms, and would never walk down the aisle toward Ken or have children. I'm sorry to say, Ruth, but that wasn't how we played it.

Mattel. Mattel, which is responsible for a number of toy brands, including Barbie, Hot Wheels, and Fisher-Price, is one of the world's largest toy companies.

Barbie Name and Likeness: The most fundamental and well-known trademark of all is the name "Barbie" itself. Mattel holds exclusive rights to use the name in connection with dolls, toys, and related merchandise.

It's not just the organic nostalgia and universality around “Barbie” that contributed to its rocketing success - it was a savvy marketing campaign. From the get-go, it was clear it would be the summer of pink as several brands collaborated with “Barbie” and ads flooded social media.

“Every night is girls night.”

Barbie represents how women can do anything now. For young women, it's saying they can be anything they want to be with hard work and perseverance. The movie is a feminist masterpiece - Barbie represents female empowerment, women being fearless.

Barbie's journey of self-discovery is rooted in a challenge to the patriarchy. Although that patriarchy protects the Kens, the film shows how it also damages them, and leads them to turn Barbieland into a mecca for toxic masculinity.

Barbie shows us a world where women have power derived from kindness, unity, and self-actualization. She helps the audience believe that not only is that world possible, anything less is unacceptable. She doesn't, however, say creating this world will be easy. It won't be because the real world can be hard.

She managed her life and lived her choices as a strong, independent woman. Her man Ken was a companion, more a supportive sidekick than guardian of his woman's development. That she didn't go on to become a mother was revolutionary. Barbie offered an exciting alternative to the 1950s model stay-at-home mom.

Barbie has three younger sisters: Skipper, Stacie and Chelsea. Mattel describes Barbie as strong, confident and always willing to help her siblings.

Mattel shut down its last U.S. factory - in Murray, Ky. - in 2001. Barbie, Hot Wheels and other Mattel toys are now made in China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico and Thailand. It's a familiar narrative.
