Miley Cyrus is now a collectible Barbie in the Signature line

On Tuesday, June 30, Mattel launched a new doll that is part of the prestigious Barbie Signature line. This doll is a direct tribute to Miley Cyrus, the current music icon, Grammy winner, and style trendsetter.

The doll’s look is inspired by the "Golden Burning Sun" scene from her recent musical film, Something Beautiful. She’s rocking a black, leather-like two-piece outfit that features a bralette-style top, fitted pants, and an eye-catching belted jacket with a big hood.

The doll features a replica of the exclusive design created by the haute couture house of the legendary Tunisian designer Azzedine Alaïa (1935–2017) for Miley to wear in the "Golden Burning Sun" video.

“Barbie represents a personal dream of mine. She’s something I’ll never outgrow as she evolves with me”

- Miley’s statement on instagram.

This Barbie doll is designed with a face mold that captures Miley Cyrus's features, and it has a fully articulated body, which makes it perfect for posing just like she does on stage.

She shows up with dark sunglasses, black pointed-toe heels, and of course, her microphone in hand.

The doll costs about $60 and you can already pre-order or buy it on big sites like Amazon, Target, and Walmart. If you check out Walmart, you'll find it for $55.97.

A hairstyle inspired by Hannah?

At first glance, the bangs and hairstyle might bring back memories of the Hannah Montana days, but the truth is that this look is all about Miley’s current vibe, not her past.

The hairstyle has a rich brunette color with some golden highlights and big, bouncy bangs. It totally looks like Miley’s style in the Golden Burning Sun music video.

Miley wanted her hair to have layers, plenty of volume, and different tones that reflect the sunlight. She was aiming for a "Golden Burning Sun" vibe instead of a flat, one-color look or a stiff, plastic style, according to Billboard magazine.

The plan was to recreate her current style, but fans on social media couldn’t help but notice that the bangs really bring back vibes from her early Disney days.

For fans, the Miley doll's gaze is a throwback to her early days, complete with those iconic bangs. It’s like the perfect way to wrap up her journey!

“Holding my Barbie in my hands is a true full circle moment. Now you have a little piece of me and every time you hold her, I hope you’re reminded that I’m rooting for you to chase your own dreams too”

- Miley shares her thoughts on her new doll on instagram.

Barbie Signature

Barbie Signature is basically Mattel’s fancy line for adult collectors. It covers all the dolls that are high-fashion, pay tribute to pop culture, and include those luxury editions.

The Barbies in this collection are different from the ones you usually find in toy stores, which are designed for play and called "Playline." Instead, these dolls are all about amazing details, nice fabrics, fancy packaging you can display, and cool movement features.

Mattel makes it easier for collectors to know the value and rarity of each piece by using a color-coded label system for the Barbie Signature line.

Dolls from this line come with a stand and a Certificate of Authenticity, so you can keep them in their boxes or show them off in your cabinets.
