Barbie movie outfits

Barbie's pink gingham dress looks like it was inspired by the 1964 Dancing Doll Barbie.

Her gold disco jumpsuit is reminiscent of the 1980 Golden Dreams Barbie.

Barbie and Ken's neon outfits worn in Venice Beach are likely inspired by the 1994 Hot Skatin Barbie.

"There's a difference only you can make."

I'll always keep that close to my heart because it's so true.

It says be you. Be different. Because there's a difference only YOU can make."

I'm glad you like it! The quote is from Barbie in the 12 Dancing Princesses.

I chose it for my blog because just like you, I think it's beautiful and very true. Also, the main character in the movie (who says this quote) is exactly like me (personality-wise, I mean), so this meant a lot to me.

Day 12 : When Gloria says, "I had a weird Barbie", to her daughter, she is referring to the weird Barbie played by Kate McKinnon. In the flashback to the creation of weird Barbie, a young girl kicks the doll, draws on it, burns its hair, etc. Scrabble letters in the corner of the girl's room spell out "Gloria". So, Gloria created weird Barbie.
