Spring at Versailles Barbie, Carlyle OOAK donation to 2018 Paris Fashion Doll Festival. His inspiration came from the amazing book I’m currently reading, ‘The Battle of Versailles: The Night American Fashion Stumbled into the Spotlight and Made History’ by @robingivhan! It’s about when in 1973, five American designers ‘battled’ against five French designers at the Palace of Versailles. Each faction showed up and showed out, bringing out the best of each country’s fashion identity.

The American designers not only stunted with beautiful ready-to-wear (versus Parisian couture) but they also casted their presentation with many models of color. This event most definitely changed the course of fashion, not just in terms of clothing itself but also in terms of diversity in casting models. So alllll o dat got his thinking ‘What would a Battle of Versailles look like today?’ And from reading Robin Givhan’s book and ruminating on what fashion (clothes and the models in the clothes) looks like today, came this Barbie!

Spring at Versailles is his idea of a modern Parisian couture sensibility; meticulous but still fun and a little surreal-quirky. Her mermaid gown features metallic foiled nude lace appliqued with graduated tulle ruffles in tones of peach, lavender, chartreuse, ruby and navy. She uses the Generation Girl Mari face sculpt with side glancing brown eyes framed with teal winged eyeliner. Her ruby red hair is styled in finger waves, set off with long iridescent rhinestones earrings that kiss her shoulders. Spring at Versailles Barbie was auctioned off at 2018 Paris Fashion Doll Festival.
