Today marks the 50th anniversary of Barbie’s debut at the American International Toy Fair in New York—and she’s still looking good. To celebrate this iconic passage, Paris’ leading concept store, Colette, will premier the limited edition Jawbone Bluetooth Headset: Barbie X Colette by Yves Béhar.
The headset offers NoiseAssassin, the most advanced noise reduction technology on the market, a rechargeable battery, four hours of talk time and seven hours of standby time—all while staying true to Barbie’s fashionable flare. Whether you need to drown out Ken’s blabbering or invite the girls over for dinner at the Malibu Dream House, you can now do it in style. Better act fast, though—the headset is limited to 12 units.
50 years of Barbie at Colette will also feature an exhibition and window installation, photography by Karl Lagerfeld, a Jeremy Scott ready-to-wear capsule collection for Mattel and other limited edition Barbie products. The window installation is on display from March 9-15, while the Barbie Room at Colette will be available through March 28.
