With a bunch of celebrity's front row, the Barbie Fall '09 fashion show was definitely a knock-out!
Heidi Klum, Diane von Furstenberg, Jeffrey Banks, Stephen Cole of the CFDA, Bob Mackie, Peter Som, The blonds, Annie Leibovitz with her daughters, power gays Simon Doonan and Jonathan Adler, Mattel Creative Director Robert Best and Robert Verdi were there to support the barbie show.
The iconic doll celebrated 50 years with a runway show featuring look created by 50 American designers, including Michael Kors, Calvin Klein, Anna Sui and Diane von Furstenberg. The world's top models brought the doll to life in three themed wardrobe sets. The first looks were a tribute to the retro dolls of the 50's and 60's followed by a Malibu Barbie-inspired crop with big hair and tanned skin, and the finale featured edgier looks with clear plastic toppers that gave the audience a peek into Barbie's bright future.
Diane von Furstenberg about Barbie: ' Barbie represents a confident and independent woman with an amazing ability to have fun while remaining glamorous.'
The audience was full of excited little girls on their mothers' laps and many Barbie lookalikes in pink dresses, blond ponytails, even a pink wig.
They show started off with a 5 minute long video of all Barbie's fabulousness. Beneath a crystal chandelier the first model posed.
