Frank Sinatra Barbie

Inspired by one of the world’s greatest and most iconic performers of all time, Frank Sinatra Barbie™ is the definition of class and sophistication as this doll takes center stage in Fall 2011.

Beloved not only for his melodic voice, Frank Sinatra did things “his way” with refined style and effortless grace. In a tribute to Ol’ Blue Eyes, Barbie® puts a spin on one of the crooner’s most iconic looks, tailored suit inspired by many of the singer’s album covers, including Nothing But The Best.

Looking dapper in tweed, Barbie® wears a tailored houndstooth printed suit complete with a black tie, polished white shirt, and Frank-inspired fedora. Barbie® adds a twist of her own style to the classic look with bejeweled matching earrings and high-heeled saddle shoes.

Barbie® also pays tribute to Frank Sinatra with her chic pocket square in orange, Frank’s favorite color.

Available now, the Sinatra Barbie® doll will be a truly tasteful touch to any Barbie® collection and is a must-have for Barbie® and Frank Sinatra fans alike.
