WWD have reported that French footwear designer Christian Louboutin is to be the latest designer to give Barbie a makeover.
According to a story filed in today’s ‘Fashion Scoops’, the Red(sole)
Baron will be releasing three Louboutin Barbies ‘over the coming months’,
“They’re completely wild and even come with mini Louboutin boxes for the shoes”
the spokeswomen said.
Barbie, blogging thru the shame!
However, Louboutin’s spokeswomen informed WWD that The Baron was so
affronted by Barbie’s elephantine ankles cankles that
he simply ‘reshaped’ them, “He found her ankles were too fat,” said a Louboutin
spokeswoman
The spokeswomen also revealed at least ‘one of the dolls would be
released in time for the Cannes International Film Festival’.
Louboutin’s remodeling of the iconic doll has sent Eastern Euro
dollybirds and fame whore poseurs into a tizz with the proposed timing of the
first release. Speaking exclusively to Imelda via skype, one frozen-faced
(Cannes) regular reports that she’s already undergone seasonal cosmetic procedures
in preparation for “ze film festival”.
Her voice barely audible (from multiple enhancements to her duckbill) my
source claims to be “devastated” by Louboutin’s move. “Why now? Does he not
know iz too late for a ankle-suction, the downtime is murderous” "How can I valk ze red carpet knowing Barbie is out zere, taunting me with her thin ankles?"
Reaction to the news from social media site Twitter has been mixed;
“Seriously? Fashion people love giving others a reason to hate them”
@pauperprincess,
“yeah, that beyotch needs to lose some ankle weight! And Ken. She needs
to lose Ken” @wendybrandes
“I wouldn't be surprised if that were accurate... After all, she's not
exactly the most in proportion model, is she?” @goaskalicia
Debate on thinsiprational sites like marykateandashley.com and
tellmewhatyoudontlikeaboutyourself.com is heated as body dismorphic tweens had
only recently resolved that ‘ear lobes’ are a weight loss target.
Louboutin’s aggressive product placement strategy with thinspirational
celebrities like Nicole Ritchie and Lindsay Lohan means the French designer
holds enormous sway with the tween set. Leaving Imelda to wonder if group ankle-suction parties are
now on the menu for l’il Chloe's (Katlin, Emily, Rose) next birthday party.
BAHAHAHA that is just too funny.

The laughing is too much my ankles might explode, at least the leakage will save me a fortune in ankle reduction!
Did they say if her bust is being reduced or is the Jordan look the preferred option?!

cankley-barbie-beyotch-a-liriousness. my personal request is to be resized as a Barbie so i can wear those teeny tiny Louboutin lovelies. and ya, why don't they give us a Ken redo each year. new year, new Ken! that should work, i can focus for about a year.

well...her cankles always did bother me...but that's an easy thing to fix, that gummy rubber is totally easy to mutilate. i've seen it happen.
on a side note, i totally gained weight from blogging, either it was all the hours at the computer or the paxil... i can't really pin it down right now.
