Three thoughts come to mind when you view this Barbie doll collection exhibition. (Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous!) More than 600 dolls in clothes ranging from beachwear to wedding dresses. You can marvel at the lovely ladies, film stars, royals, William and Kate, inspiring people such as an astronaut, and the boy dolls, Elvis, business or sporty.

Three Thoughts On Barbie Dolls Inspiration

1 Barbie dolls promote slim women (who still have pronounced waists and curves).

2 Barbie dolls have colourful clothes and matching accessories and props.

3 The latest trend is disposable or 'flushable fashion' clothes. 

Flushable Clothes

Flushable fashion clothes - are the opposite of classic, long-lasting clothes. But fashion is all about following fashion.

Yes, just a moment of instant, excitement at the novelty.  Before you move onto the next new idea. 

Jian Yang's Book

On the other hand, they provide a second use for paper and paper bags. No more clutter of last year's out-of-date, unwanted items. 

The dolls were all collected by Jian Yang. You can see the boy dolls whose clothes are based on various stages in his life.

You can buy his book Flushable Fashion, showing his latest idea - how dolls clothes were made in as little as 15 minutes from paper such as the paper shopping bags from shops in the ION indoor shopping mall.

More photos being added shortly

The exhibition started in September and runs until Friday 21st October. Check the House of Dreams and ION websites for updates.
