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.
