With this character's wardrobe, there has to be a Barbie doll!
There's going to be a Barbie dressed as Elle Woods, and she'll have a tiny Bruiser with her. It's really great. I was a little wary of merchandising because I'm a mom, and I worry about kids wanting to buy Elle Woods stuff. I want it to be socially responsible. Actually, the great thing about the Barbie is that all my proceeds and MGM's proceeds are going to a great charity called Children's Defense Fund. So, moms can sort of buy Elle Barbies guilt free. |

Material Culture & Barbie®
Historians, and related fields, have continually relied on written and verbal documentation to carry out research. It has only been in the recent past that the importance of artifacts as providers of information has been recognized. The study of material culture allows one to learn from objects; to let the artifact speak for itself. It is the study, through objects, of the beliefs, values, ideas, attitudes and assumptions of a particular community or society at a given time. |
