Baby Phat Creates Scary Kimora Barbie Doll

…the Kimora doll is dressed in a retro pink dress with a golden waist clasp bearing the Baby Phat logo. Adorning her toned legs are sleek hot pink thigh high boots, and completing the outfit is her pink zebra-striped handbag, big golden hoop earrings and big, black VIP sunglasses.
Hm. Let's be clear here: Even if you're concerned about the fashionability of your young daughter, there is nothing fashionable about hot-pink thigh-high boots. A better fashion-plate doll would be Anna Wintour Barbie, perhaps in some Christian Louboutins and an Yves Saint Laurent dress. Now that's a doll we could totally buy for our little one in good conscience. Come to think of it, if anyone ever decides to make one, please hook us up with an André Leon Talley Barbie, too. That sort of doll could be endlessly amusing and instructive.
