Barbie is no stranger to designer clothing, having worn outfits by Burberry, Calvin Klein and Oscar de la Renta in the past. But the latest doll from Mattel is no clothes horse: she’s taking the guise of a famed designer herself.

Meet Barbie Lagerfeld, the Kaiser Karl-inspired limited edition doll to be released later this year.

Dressed in a black suit jacket, collared white shirt, wide neck tie and black gloves, all Barbie Lagerfeld needs now is a white house cat to complete her look.

Something tells us there will be more adults than children queuing to get their hands on this toy.
