This marks the first time Barbie has teamed up with an Indian designer to honor a culturally significant event. Dongre, who drew inspiration from her home city of Jaipur, created a doll dressed in a Moonlight Bloom set featuring a choli top, floral Koti vest and lehenga skirt adorned with symbolic Indian flowers. ⁠ ⁠ “She's this quintessentially modern Indian girl. I wanted the doll to represent what India is today, because I think the world sometimes has a very different idea of what India is. And today the young Indian woman is intelligent, empowered and modern. She wears India with pride,” Dongre told GMA. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ 📰Follow us for the latest Asian News NextShark⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #news #barbie #diwali #diwalidoll #anitadongre #hindufestivaloflights #diw...
