Designed to reflect the world kids see today, Barbie Fashionistas dolls celebrate individuality, confidence, and representation. Barbie Fashionistas Doll #242 proudly introduces the first Barbie doll with type 1 diabetes, created in partnership with Breakthrough T1D (formerly JDRF).
This Barbie doll wears a stylish blue polka dot top and matching skirt inspired by global symbols of diabetes awareness — the color blue and circular shapes. To support her type 1 diabetes management, she features realistic accessories including an insulin pump, a continuous glucose monitor (CGM), heart-shaped medical tape in Barbie pink, and a phone displaying a CGM app.
Finished with a pastel blue purse and chunky block heels, this Barbie is ready for everyday adventures while helping kids see themselves — and others — reflected in play. Barbie Fashionistas encourage storytelling, empathy, and confidence through fashion and real-world representation.
