To celebrate Barbie’s 50-year anniversary, Chanel’s own Karl Lagerfeld designed a Barbie/Ken exhibit for Colette in Paris. The exhibit will be visible in Colette store windows from March 9-15th, including a “high security exhibition” of the first-ever Barbie and Ken dolls on the 12th.

See all the pretty pretties.

If you’re less interested in the aesthetics of Barbie than in her history, you definitely wanna check out The Big Money’s awesome timeline of Barbie’s social progression over the past half-century. It made us glad she shafted Ken in the early ’00s — dude was never that hawt.
