The world has gone Barbie-crazy again. It is all thanks to Greta Gerwig's latest film of the same name. Collections of clothes or accessories inspired by this iconic doll started to appear in shops. We decided to check whether Barbie would find a watch for herself at Watchard.

A brief history of Barbie

Barbie is undeniably an iconic figure in pop culture and the world's most beloved doll. She was created by the visionary American entrepreneur, Ruth Handler, in 1958. The idea was born during Ruth's visit to Europe, where she chanced upon the German Bild Lilli doll, portraying a mature woman. Just a year later, in 1959, Barbie made her grand debut at the American toy fair. Where does the name come from? Well, "Barbie" is a shortened version of Barbara, the name of Ruth Handler's daughter. The full name of the doll is Barbara Millicent Roberts. Barbie's boyfriend, Ken, as well as friends and sisters are also part of the invented biography.

What watch would fit Barbie's world?

Pink, of course. Her signature candy-coloured style is iconic, and it's making a dazzling comeback thanks to the cinema premiere. Barbie’s vibrant style and striking accessories inspired a number of designers. If we're talking about a watch that would fit Barbie, it needs to embody the essence of sparkle and glamour at its finest.
