[서울=RNX뉴스] 박진우 기자 = New Barbie Dolls Feature Vitiligo and Hairless Models.
Mattel, the maker of Barbie dolls, hopes to highlight a “a multi-dimensional view of beauty and fashion” with the new dolls.
The company created the Barbie Fashionistas line in 2015 after years of drawing criticism for promoting a slim, white, domestic image.
Mattel expanded its range last year by adding a doll with a prosthetic limb and another in a wheelchair.
The line also introduced the first Barbie to wear a hijab in 2017.
The Fashionistas line now features over 170 “diverse dolls.”
