children can play with them, such as changing their clothes, styling their hair, andeven doing their make-up.
But, until the 1950’s, dolls that had adult women's shape were not popular inAmerica. Instead, many children played with dolls that looked like babies. In
1959, ＊Mattel, Inc., a toy company in America, released ＊Barbie dolls, which had
beautiful and ideal women’s looks. Many girls were pleased with the new dolls,
and 351,000 Barbie dolls were sold that year.
The woman who created Barbie is Ruth Marianna Handler. She started Mattel,
Inc. with her husband in 1945. In 1956, during her trip to Switzerland, she saw
dolls that had the bodies of adult women and were wearing different fashion styles.
After ②this experience, Ruth thought that children could imagine themselves in
the future when they were playing with dolls that look like adults. Then, she madeBarbie, which was like the dolls that she saw in Switzerland.
At first, many staff in her company didn’t agree with her idea of Barbie. They
said that it would not sell because③. [A]They also came to be sold in many other countries.
Barbies’ looks have been changing with the times. It is said that Barbies show
the social situations of women at that time.
One example is the changes to their expressions. In 1959, they have sidelong
glances that make them cool. In 1971, they changed to look forward. In 1977,
they started to smile with teeth. [B]Another example is their clothes. There are many kinds of clothes Barbieswear. In the 1960’s many wore costumes of nurses or cabin attendants. In 1973,
Barbies that wore the costumes of doctors were sold. Various costumes such aspolice officers, pilots, scientists, and even ＊ entomologists were sold one after
another. [C]Mattel, Inc. has been producing many kinds of Barbies that were designed tomeet requests from people who have various backgrounds. In 2016, the company
released “Barbie Fashionistas.” In this series of dolls, there are four types of body
shapes, seven types of skin colors, 22 types of eye colors, and 24 types of hair styles.
In 2019, Barbie in a wheelchair was released. In 2022, the first ＊transgender
Barbie was designed.
“We girls can do anything.”
This message first appeared in the TV
advertisement of Barbie in 1980’s. Barbies have been helping children havedreams and try challenges. They have also been expressing the opinions andwishes of various people to society. The history of Barbie teaches us how oursociety has changed with the times.
