LEO LIN x Barbie™ x Megan Hess
About the Collection
The timeless world of Barbie comes to life in a capsule collection by LEO LIN, designed in collaboration with acclaimed illustrator Megan Hess. A joyful, elegant ode to fashion's most en-during icons.
"Megan has been a longstanding friend of LEO LIN and this is a natural extension of our friendship. We both adore the world of Barbie and how the brand continues to showcase positivity, confidence and joy; that's exactly what we wanted every piece to feel like on the body." Leo Lin, Founder and Creative Director, LEO LIN
"I have drawn Barbie in every era of her fashion life, but I have never seen her step off the page quite like this. For me it has been a dream come true to collaborate with Leo on this collection. I’ve worn his designs for so many years and it has been an honour to work with him to bring this dream of a Barbie capsule collection to life. I can't wait to wear every piece." Megan Hess, Fashion Illustrator and Author, Barbie: A Fashion Icon
Designed in an exclusive signature pink, the eight-piece capsule spans tailoring, eveningwear and luxurious daywear in silk, silk-wool and silk-linen blends. A sculptural bow motif runs throughout - from a single-shoulder statement on the Chelsea Bow Mini dress to delicate hand sewn bows - alongside ruffled, tiered eveningwear and a fluid off-shoulder maxi, balancing everyday ease with occasion-ready glamour.
