Here's What Barbie Would Look Like if She Had Average Measurements

Latest

Artist Nickolay Lamm — he of the future fish faced humas and fresh-faced, scary-ass Barbie — got the measurements of an average 19-year-old from the CDC (Center for Disease Control & Prevention) and then made a 3D model and used photoshop to shape her into Barbie’s blond as hell image. The result? Skipper on steroids A much closer to human-looking doll that won’t make seven year olds feel like they need to start throwing up their Lunchables.

“If we criticize skinny models, we should at least be open to the possibility that Barbie may negatively influence young girls as well,” says Lamm. “If there’s even a small chance of Barbie in its present form negatively influencing girls, and if Barbie looks good as an average-sized woman in America, what’s stopping Mattel from making one?”

Excellent question, sir.
