Exhibition 50 years Barbie in Museum of Bags and Purses

An exhibition to celebrate 50 years of the Barbie doll has opened in the Museum of Bags and Purses in Amsterdam.

Fifty Barbies, dating from 1960 to 2010, will be shown in the exhibition. Throughout the years she has been a reflection of the times, displaying trends in fashion: first as a posh lady wearing Parisian haute couture, later sporting leisurewear, disco gear and bridal gowns.

The exhibition is until May 4, 2014, in the Tassenmuseum.
