Charlotte Olympia, the designer behind cat-faced slip-ons and quirky, unique bags, has a new exciting collaboration. Those who have ever owned a Barbie doll will be particularly pleased to hear that she’s teamed up with Barbie for an adorable collection that is available now. For the campaign, there is an enticing new film directed by Quentin Jones.

The line consists of pink shoes with transparent heels, a perspex clutch that has all of Barbie’s needs on display such as perfume, lipstick and a mirror and pink Kitty slip-ons featuring sunnies and a pout. The collaboration also includes a vintage doll she designed which wears leopard print and has make-up and hair that harkens back to the 1950s. Olympia told WWD: “Isn’t it every girl’s dream to have a Barbie that looks like her? I didn’t want to modernise her because I went to the era, the ’50s, that inspires my brand.”

The Charlotte Olympia and Barbie collection is available on www.charlotteolympia.com
