Single-shouldered gowns in georgette, flare skirts, hot shorts and black glamorous dresses were part of contemporary Barbie’s wardrobe. Inspiring little girls’ fashion sense at an early age, no Barbie tribute would be complete without the younger ladies and it was so that two little ladies stepped out in black and white dresses, to the delight of the audience. Dubai Fashion Week came to an end to resounding applause for the Grand Finale, which closed with a surprise burst of confetti on the runway.
