Barbie Exhibition

Haute Couture fashion week has just ended in Paris, I was obviously very inspired for this new article.

Last week, I spoke about Jean-Paul Gaultier's exhibition Love is Love, a retrospective of these bridal outfits (Link to the Article) which started in Montreal (Canada).

Montreal which is full of fantastic museums, a city that I’ll show you soon.
However, for today, back to childhood, something that everybody knows but with a little twist.

I would like to dedicate this article to my youngest follower, Olivia, who will turn 10 years old this year.

This is the largest permanent Barbie Haute Couture collection, more than 1,000 dolls dressed by the greatest designers in the world: Barbie Expo, in the heart of Montreal.

And let's start with the brides, who knows maybe my solo wedding in Santorini will inspire Barbie one day ...

​Barbie will be celebrating her 60th birthday in March, I would like to age as well as she does. And yes since 1959, the famous doll inspired millions of children.

​She also inspired brands, Barbie, 11½-inch tall is surely the smallest fashion model in the world.

​​But also, movies, shows and celebrities inspired her.

​​Many designers have created unique outfits for her, including me and not always to her advantage hahaha.

​​This great exhibition reminds us of history and geography too:

​​Barbie is all about a magical world where imagination has no limit ...

​Note that this exhibition is completely free and that all donations are donated to the Association Make a Wish Quebec.
And to discover more, here is the website of Barbie expo: expobarbie.ca/en/

​Short story: a girlfriend offered me my first Barbie for my 6th birthday, and a very special one, Barbie Dream Glow, whose stars on her dress shine in the dark. One of my best memories. It's as if today my friends offered me a pair of Louboutin! The lesson that I learnt then, choose well your friends! Lesson I have obviously forgotten on the way, since no one offered me some Louboutin hahaha.

​No article next week, I'll be travelling to find other interesting topics for you. And for those who are not fashion fans, I promise, the next article will be on a very mouthwatering topic! But I don't tell you more ...

Have a lovely week end!
Love & Joy,
L.
