Capturing the imaginative, playful style of Barbie and featuring iconic silhouettes and quintessential western design elements from Wrangler – including a pink rendition of the iconic and unmistakable Wrangler back-pocket leather patch – Wrangler x Barbie features an assortment of mix-and-match pieces for women and girls. The collection contains the denim brand's perfected bootcut jean and first Wrancher® Dress Jean for women in a vibrant Barbie pink. Bridging Wrangler's roots and the Barbie brand's signature California vibes, the collection also includes an assortment of casual and statement pieces across shirts, dresses, tees and jackets incorporating fierce colors, lively prints and a touch of western flair.

For many generations, Wrangler has represented and supported the hard-earned pursuits and dreams of the American West while the Barbie brand has empowered fans of all ages to believe that they can be anything. Barbie herself has been depicted as a farmer and an equestrian, so the Wrangler x Barbie collection fittingly incorporates western-inspired Barbie illustrations, patterns, textures and aesthetics for those who have always dared to dream.



"Particularly through the remarkable expansion of its female product categories over the years, Wrangler has earned a unique position in women's fashion, offering western style that transcends lifestyles, occupations, economic backgrounds, genres, geographies and generations," says Jenni Broyles, senior vice president, Wrangler. "Barbie has become a permanent and cultural symbol of empowerment, and with this collection we aim to encourage individuals from all walks of life to embrace their unique identities and make a statement that echoes across time."

The collaboration is backed by iconic brand histories full of rich, symbolic and classic fashions and cultural moments, and inspired by two brands that have been making products long-cherished as collectible items passed down through generations. Wrangler x Barbie reimagines brand archives and pays homage to the Barbie brand's history of experimenting with western-inspired fashion and her authentic western lifestyle, including her experience as a horse owner beginning in the 1970s.

Wrangler x Barbie is available on Wrangler.com and in store. To learn more about the collection, upcoming collaborations between Mattel and Wrangler, and the groundbreaking brands leading women to pursue their passions, follow @wrangler, @barbie and @barbiestyle.

MUNICH FABRIC START: Between Attitude and Sensuality

Physical presence and individuality are regaining importance – as a response to uncertainty, exhaustion, and algorithmic predictability.
