The 11.5-inch plastic doll is still on the top as a high-fashion muse for the international designers.

"There has been an epic display of unity around Barbie as a muse. Everyone wants to dress her," said Richard Dickson, general manager of the Barbie brand at Mattel.

Designers like Diane von Furstenberg, Anna Sui and British designers Roksanda Ilincic and Danielle Scutt are among the 50 designers who have designed Barbie's outfits, reports telegraph.co.uk.
