Music icon Stevie Nicks has just received one of pop culture’s highest honors – being transformed into a Barbie doll in her likeness. Toymaker Mattel has unveiled a new Stevie Nicks Barbie as part of their Signature Music Series celebrating legendary artists.
The breathtaking doll captures Nicks’ unique rock goddess style and spirit. It offers fans a collectible tribute to the Fleetwood Mac frontwoman’s enduring musical legacy.
Barbie Signature Music Series: Stevie Nicks
According to Mattel, the Stevie Nicks Barbie was designed to emulate the singer-songwriter’s “signature spellbinding style and mesmerizing stage presence” that captivated generations of fans.
The doll depicts Nicks circa 1977 at the height of Fleetwood Mac’s fame. It shows her holding a tambourine and wearing her iconic black chiffon dress and shawl from the “Rumours” album cover. Accessories include Nicks’ signature moon and star necklace, black platform boots, and fingerless gloves.
With her flowing blonde hair, smoky eye makeup, and bright red lips, Barbie immortalizes Stevie’s distinct ethereal yet glamorous fashion sense. Just like Nicks’ songs, her Barbie has a timeless and mystical quality.
Collaboration with Stevie Herself
Mattel worked closely with Stevie Nicks to ensure the doll authentically reflected her style. In a social media post, Nicks shared she was initially hesitant about the idea but was overwhelmed once seeing her Barbie.
Nicks said the doll brought back memories of performing in that now famous black “Rhiannon” outfit. And that the Barbie’s face also reminded her of her 27-year-old self just as Fleetwood Mac was taking off.
For Nicks, the collaboration resulted in a Barbie that she says has her spirit and “absolutely has my heart.” It represents another memorable milestone in her storied career.
Available for Purchase
The Stevie Nicks Barbie is available for purchase on Walmart’s website for $55. As one of music’s most beloved and emulated artists, the doll makes a perfect gift for Fleetwood Mac fans.
The Barbie launch coincides with Stevie Nicks’ 2022 tour featuring shows across North America. Nicks is slated to perform in Phoenix on December 8 along with Billy Joel.
While concert tickets may be hard to come by, the Stevie Nicks Barbie offers an affordable way to celebrate the music and style of this true rock icon. For Barbie collectors and Nicks devotees alike, this doll is a must-have commemoration of the gypsy queen of rock and roll.
