The Moschino Barbie Collection

Last season it was all about the McDonald's Golden Arches and Spongebob SquarePants, but for Spring Summer 2015, Jeremy Scott looked to Barbie for his inspiration. And possibly Elle Woods from Legally Blonde.

Barbie Glamour
The Moschino fashion show in Milan pretty much broke Instagram as soon as the front took their seats. It was mainly down to the pictures of all the Moschino branded Barbie dolls and fabulous pink vanity mirror/phone cases that were waiting for them, and that was before the show even started.
 
Barbie Themed Accessories
The fifteen minute fashion show saw models strutting their stuff down the catwalk (and when we say strut, we mean a sassy 'I know I'm hot but I'm like, totally girly, too' way) and they all wore seriously voluminous wigs (platinum blonde if it worked) and the entire first half of the show was all bubblegum pink.

A Collection In Bright Pink
We loved everything about this show; the chain belts, the cute coordinated  pieces, the fun bikini tops, the abundance of sequins, the towel dress, the roller-skating model who did a little spin at the end of the catwalk, and the personality coming from each and every model who graced the catwalk.

Barbie Beach Wear
Let's not forget that Jeremy Scott is the king of accessories, this show saw a boom box handbag, a perspex clutch, a bright yellow camera, a pink suitcase, and a flip phone, y'know, to call Ken to ask him to pick her up.(He is currently in Fire Island with his friend Kevin.....)

Total Accessorisation
The finale of dresses (not forgetting the white pearlised tuxedo), had our inner 7-year-old-self shrieking with delight - it was like a game of Fashion Wheel, and who didn't love playing Fashion Wheel?

Pearly Queen
But if you're worried you won't be able to buy the Moschino Barbie collection until next Summer, do not fear! Available now on Moschino.com you can buy a selection of the pieces; from a Barbie emblazoned T-shirt to a Moschino sweatband, right down to the amazing phone case. It's also being sold exclusively at Browns online and in store on Sunday.
 
Barbie In Person
We told you Barbie was making a comeback!
