All dolled up – 6 ways to bring Barbie to your big day
All dolled up – 6 ways to bring Barbie to your big day
Think outside the box: send the iconic doll’s pink attire and sugary accessories down the aisle
A Vera Wang gown might be out of the question for you, but for Barbie? Piece of cake. Use the Vera Wang Bride: The Traditionalist Barbie Doll as a topper (along with a suited and booted Ken of course) or as part of a quirky centerpiece and pay homage to the designer without crushing your budget, around £106. www.thebarbiecollection.com
As hen party props go, this Barbie Bride trucker cap is head and shoulders above the standard L plate and feather boa, £20. www.bondandceremony.com
We think a modern day Barbie would look drop dead gorgeous in this Ellis Bridals scalloped lace V-neck gown with embellished slim belt and pleated tulle skirt (style 11456). POA. www.ellisbridals.co.uk
Introduce layered pink florals as an ode to Barbie’s favourite shade – look to Interflora’s Vera Wang wedding collection for inspiration. This rose and cymbidium bouquet adds red into the palette to keep the flowers romantic, prices start at £64.99. www.interflora.co.uk
Sophia Webster, how we love you. Just when we thought the designer’s ‘Wifey for Lifey’ courts couldn’t be topped, she collaborates with Barbie on a range of women’s and children’s shoes, celebrating the doll’s first pair of flats. There’s high tops and slip-ons, but we squealed over the heels, especially these dolly-beaded Tyra shoes, £395. www.sophiawebster.com
Life in plastic, it’s fantastic with retro brand Truffle Shuffle’s Perspex Barbie logo statement necklace, £7.99. www.truffleshuffle.co.uk
