00:04 Welcome to Ms. Mojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the top 10 Barbie outfits we totally rocked today.
00:11 "The idea of this kind of like Morgan Fairchild workout but in heavy makeup, that's just like so fun to me."
00:17 For this list, we're looking at the famous doll's most fabulous clothes that we wish lined our closets.
00:22 Do you have a favorite Barbie outfit? Let us know in the comments.
00:27 Number 10 - Suburban Shopper Barbie
00:30 Super cute sundresses aren't exactly everyone's go-to choice for running errands,
00:34 but in the early days of Barbie, it was a perfect outfit for a busy day.
00:38 "This is an authentic Suburban Shopper. This is a very historically significant outfit. I mean, this is Barbie going out for a shopping trip."
00:44 Suburban Shopper is one of the first dresses for the iconic doll, and we can see why.
00:49 The blue and white ensemble adorned with lace and flower details is simple yet whimsical.
00:54 "Look at the quality of these clothing. Look at the zipper. Look at the real working zipper."
00:58 It also just looks airy and comfortable, ideal for a warm day.
01:02 We desperately want this classic dress for ourselves.
01:06 We clearly aren't the only ones, because Unique Vintage's Barbie-inspired collection included this very item in 2019.
01:13 And get this, it had pockets.
01:15 "Damn."
01:17 "P-p-p-pockets on the docket when I drop a deposit."
01:21 "Stuff it down, turn around, run away, you can stop it."
01:24 Number 9. 2004 Presidential Candidate Barbie
01:27 Being the ever-evolving career woman she is, Barbie has run for president a number of times since 1992.
01:34 "But I'm already president and ambassador. It would be a conflict of interest."
01:39 Of course, we've loved her attire throughout her various campaigns, from pencil skirts to ball gowns.
01:45 But this fiery red pantsuit with black detailing from 2004 in particular is as powerful as it is chic.
01:51 Adding the tie belt infuses the business-centric look with fun, while the scarf adds a little extra patriotic flair.
01:58 It's serving deserves to be leader of the free world, and we are here for it.
02:03 "She's worn their outfits, and she's worked herself like a Manchurian candidate into the highest levels of leadership and taken them down from the inside."
02:12 The best part is, you don't need to be running for president to rock an ensemble like this.
02:16 It's ideal for any professional venture.
02:19 Needless to say though, Barbie's got our vote.
02:22 "And she's wearing..." "What are her policies though?"
02:24 "40 less than I ever said in my class."
02:26 "Universal free healthcare."
02:27 Number 8. Cool Shoppin' Barbie
02:29 Now here's a Barbie who comes with her own clothing store.
02:33 "How about a little shopping?"
02:34 "Yeah!"
02:35 Her cute and casual denim-heavy ensemble screams 90's shopping mall.
02:42 We can see ourselves rocking this look, hanging out with friends or shopping at our favorite store.
02:46 Plus, the additional clothes and accessories mean there are some cool mix and match combos just waiting to come together.
02:53 "Lots of great buys." "Me too."
02:55 "Try this size." "This purse is you."
02:57 You could totally swap out the denim vest and mini for the plaid skirt and collared tie shirt.
03:02 Or pair the red tee with the plaid skirt.
03:05 The possibilities are always endless with Barbie, especially when it comes to wardrobe.
03:10 "They were selling them by the pound."
03:12 "Can you believe it?"
03:13 Number 7. Great Shape Barbie
03:16 Whether you're an 80's kid who had one of your own or you're someone who grew up with the Toy Story movies,
03:21 we bet this outfit unlocks some memories.
03:23 "Historically speaking, this doll is important because this was sort of created at the height of like the aerobics phase."
03:29 "So this is when it was all about dancing your way to fitness."
03:32 Dressed in a bright blue leotard and headband with multi-colored leg warmers and a cute pink belt,
03:37 Great Shape Barbie is truly unforgettable.
03:39 This uber 80's getup may not be an everyday fit, but we would definitely throw it on for an at-home workout.
03:46 "Keep it going, Barbie."
03:48 "Oooh, Barbie, meet leotard."
03:50 This might also be one of the most popular Barbie cosplay or Halloween costumes around.
03:55 The Toy Story 3 version of the doll seemingly has a little extra shine,
04:00 for those who want to stand out even more in this eye-catching outfit.
04:03 "Where you off to?"
04:04 "Looking that great, it's gotta be a date."
04:07 Number 6. Black Barbie
04:09 She's black, she's beautiful, she's dynamite.
04:13 That was the slogan for Mattel's first black Barbie introduced in 1980,
04:17 and we couldn't agree with the description more.
04:20 "She was mainly in primary colors instead of the fantasy pinks and blues and that kind of thing."
04:28 "So she really had her own personality."
04:30 At first glance, this groundbreaking doll is wearing a red shimmering gown with a daringly high slit.
04:36 But she's actually sporting a bodysuit with cut-out sleeves and a long wrap skirt.
04:41 Of course, she has the heels, earrings and lips to match.
04:45 And the gold statement necklace makes her look like a disco queen ready to hit the dance floor.
04:50 "She was so different from Barbie, which was the intent."
04:55 In 2020, Mattel released a 40th anniversary edition that paid homage to the original
05:00 with a more modern dress accented by shiny gold accessories.
05:03 We'd rock either of these looks any day.
05:06 "Okay ladies, let's do this."
05:08 Number 5. Totally Hair Barbie
05:11 Okay, this one might be a little out there, but she is Mattel's totally hot, totally cool bestseller.
05:17 "We gave crimped hair, a hairbrush, and we gave a little bit of gel to put onto the hair."
05:26 Of course, Totally Hair Barbie is all about the long locks.
05:30 But we can't help but love this wild party dress.
05:32 The bold, multicolored showstopper and hair accessories are very saved by the bell in the best way.
05:38 "Totally hot, totally cool, totally hair Barbie, you've got something special."
05:44 And even though it's available as a costume, we want the real thing.
05:48 Hot pink pumps and all.
05:50 And we're not the only ones.
05:52 Kylie Jenner slipped on a similarly patterned dress referencing the doll's 25th anniversary,
05:57 proving that there should totally be a life-sized version.
06:00 Well, it seems we got our wish, because Barbie herself, Margot Robbie,
06:05 wore a poochy dress referencing the doll's 90s look for the Barbie press tour in 2023.
06:10 "It's not so bad at all, actually. I mean, it's a lot, but like..."
06:15 Number 4 - Black Magic Barbie
06:18 We know what you're thinking, but no, this Barbie doesn't have magical abilities.
06:22 However, she does basically cast a spell on us in this super elegant all-black ensemble.
06:28 "I got the recipe and it's called black magic."
06:33 A little black dress is always a must-have.
06:36 But Black Magic Barbie spices up her strapless sheath dress with a matching sheer cape and black gloves.
06:42 "My child itself would be really excited to be wearing such a grown-up outfit."
06:46 It's a timeless look fit for many occasions. Weddings, parties, the red carpet, you name it.
06:52 And those in their villain era can benefit from it too, with the right accessories.
06:57 This outfit could easily go from classy and chic to sexy goth glam.
07:02 "You look..." "Unrecognizable. Ridiculous. A classic example of female objectification for the male gaze."
07:11 "Amazing."
07:13 Number 3 - Generation Girl Barbie
07:15 If you were a Barbie fan in the late 1990s, you likely remember the Generation Girls.
07:21 They weren't just dolls. They had backstories, hobbies, and all attended international high school in New York City.
07:27 "Show once a model, get ready, be a star. Tourism, the sports, honor board, and going far."
07:35 Each Gen Girl also had her own style and enviable duds.
07:39 We're going with Barbie's sparkling blue mini dress, complete with gorgeous red and silver heels, and the perfect denim jacket.
07:46 Like all the best dolls, she also came with a versatile wardrobe.
07:50 "She's gonna be a star." "Generation Girl!"
07:53 The additional light blue skirt could tie around the mini dress or become a completely ball gown-esque outfit when paired with the separate red and white top.
08:01 These looks might have been too much for high school but are ideal for a special occasion.
08:06 Regardless, everywhere is a runway for Barbie.
08:09 "You can rock it, 'cause the trend setter knows her game. A designer, headliner, and I walk down the street like I walk down the runway."
08:17 Number 2 - Peaches and Cream Barbie
08:19 Barbie has always been the epitome of fashion, and around the mid-1980s, she really outdid herself with this gorgeous gown.
08:27 Seriously, it's everything.
08:29 "Sweet girls can glow from head to toe, right Barbie?"
08:33 "Peaches and Cream Barbie."
08:35 Peaches and Cream Barbie has a shiny, elegant sweetheart top and a full chiffon skirt.
08:40 And don't even get us started on the waist flower detail.
08:43 The ruffled stole, meanwhile, is fit for Met Gala-worthy unraveling reveals.
08:48 Because you can't don the beautiful piece and not be wonderfully dramatic.
08:52 And there's no way anyone could wear this dress without having a princess moment and twirling around in the peach masterpiece.
08:58 "Caught up in a world of a peach creamy girl."
09:01 Luckily, Unique Vintage had a shorter and likely more comfortable version of the dress for all us humans back in 2019.
09:08 "This is the Barbie that I have aspired to be, and now I get to be her. This is so cool."
09:14 Before we unveil our top pick, here are some honorable mentions.
09:18 "Bead Blast Barbie."
09:19 A cool mini dress that'll have you looking like a rainbow from colorfully beaded head to booted toe.
09:25 "Producer Barbie."
09:30 A green and aqua look that's equal parts fierce and professional.
09:34 "Film Director Barbie."
09:40 A simple work outfit that comes with sensible flats and stylish heels.
09:44 We like options.
09:46 "Earring Magic Barbie."
09:48 The earrings are super fun, but we want a matching hot pink dress too.
09:52 "Cut and Style Barbie."
09:58 A vest and flirty skirt combo we'd imagine finding in Cher Horowitz's massive closet.

10:22 In March 1959, Barbie first stepped onto the scene donning this black and white striped bathing suit
10:31 complete with white shades, gold hoop earrings, and black open toe pumps.
10:35 The ponytail and bold red lip topped off the 50s pinup model aesthetic.
10:40 "This was the very first look and it's not a look that I ever thought I could pull off."
10:46 Looking back at this vintage one-piece, we'd argue you could totally wear it out on the town.
10:51 After all, it doesn't only have to be for the water.
10:54 "I am pleasantly surprised as to how comfortable I feel right now."
10:59 Throw on a skirt, shorts, or even pants with it and you've got yourself a complete outfit.
11:04 That's the kind of versatility we love to see.
11:07 Whatever way it's worn, we need this iconic ensemble ASAP.
11:11 "I feel like this is not a swimsuit, it is a suit of armor."
