Doll Podcast host Louisa Maxwell charts the journey of Barbie from pop culture icon to movie star.
Barbie is the girl that has it all: a hit movie, a dream house and then there is Ken - Barbie’s favourite accessory. In her over 60 years she has been immortalised by Andy Warhol and dressed by a rota of top fashion designers including: Oscar de la Renta, Bob Mackie, Yves Saint Laurent, Escada, Ralph Lauren, Vera Wang, Vivienne Westwood, Givenchy and too many more to mention in just one podcast. Now she has made box office history with a record breaking movie. So what's next for Barbie doll, an Oscar? But where did the story start and how did a simple doll, for children to dress and undress, become a pop culture icon?
