Barbie has been an iconic toy brand for over 50 years. It began as a fashion doll and has since expanded to include careers, vehicles, playsets and movies. Though sometimes criticized for unrealistic body images, Barbie also aims to empower young girls through educational storylines and depicting women in diverse jobs and cultures. The brand continues to evolve while maintaining its status as a beloved childhood toy.
