Description

Workin’ Out Barbie Doll is ready for aerobics class in totally ‘80s garb. Before yoga pants and activewear, there was spandex, legwarmers, and sweat bands – and Barbie always wore it best! Barbie Rewind™ Workin' Out doll sports a pink bodysuit with a vintage Barbie® logo print, legwarmers and must-have sweatbands.

Inspired by the originals of the ‘80s, the first three dolls in the Barbie Rewind series are iconic in their own right. The Barbie Rewind collection is as much about recreating a look as well as a feeling. Since it was ‘80s dolls in particular that sparked his interest in collecting and later designing Barbie dolls, this sense of nostalgia and authenticity was especially important to Javier. “As a Barbie designer and an avid Barbie collector, I wanted to pay tribute to a decade that is so close to my heart,” he says. “This era of dolls means so much to so many people, and it’s how many collectors (including me) got introduced to the Barbie brand.”If you ever teased your bangs or recorded songs from the radio, the new Barbie Rewind collection is for you. (And if you didn’t, no worries! ‘80s nostalgia is equally welcoming for all.) Designed by Javier Meabe, who grew up playing with and collecting Superstar era dolls, this totally tubular collection is a love letter to the 1980s Barbie dolls you know and love.

Of his process, Javier shares this: “When designing for the Barbie Rewind segment, I looked at a lot of vintage Barbie catalogs from the ‘80s and referenced the most recognizable themes, fashions, and accessories. I then asked myself the question, ‘What would these dolls look like today?’ And I made sure this segment had important elements like big hair, over the top fashion, and of course, that signature Barbie look.” A Superstar face sculpt and bendable knees will make this Barbie Rewind™ doll an instant collector favorite. This collection also has its share of surprises. “The whole segment is inspired by Barbie’s history. I was inspired by a lot of the fashions and accessories from that decade in the Barbie portfolio,” he says. “A lot of fans will see some fun Easter eggs sprinkled in, so keep your eyes out for some totally rad details.”

Statistics

The Superstar era holds a particularly special place in his heart: “Some of my favorite dolls like Dance Club Barbie, Magic Moves Barbie, and Day to Night Barbie were released during this time. So it was exciting to feel as if I was designing during that decade!”
