Barbie Collector Unveils BRITTO Barbie® Doll

May 02, 2014

Brazilian artist Romero Britto has become an icon in the world of art with a vibrant style that mixes influences from cubism to pop. After painting a portrait of Barbie™ in 2006 he envisioned bringing his masterpiece to life. Finally, Britto’s aspirations have become a reality with this special edition Barbie® doll.

In partnership with Barbie™ brand, Britto created a sporty-chic look celebrating both his art and his heritage. “I love what she stands for,” says Britto, “All things inspirational and beautiful in life … love, hope and happiness. Barbie is a reminder to everyone that you can be whomever you want to be, and accomplish whatever you dream.” Like Barbie™, Britto has always maintained the vision that anything is possible. The BRITTO Barbie® doll wears a sleek dress decorated with a colorful Britto designed print with white trim. Barbie has equally sporty yet stylish accessories including high socks, heeled booties and white sunglasses. With a football to kick around, this doll is ready to burst onto the scene and celebrate two of
Brazil’s national treasures — football and Romero Britto!
