Review: Good Concept for a book - I liked this book a lot. There are loads of Barbie books out there and I thought this was a great idea. It is a good size book and I really liked the retro pics in it. I wish it had more from the 60's, especially the Mod looks, as this is the area I am interested in. Review: Beautiful! - Bought as a gift. Very happy. Great quality book and beautiful content. A great gift idea for doll fans. ## Features - New Store Stock ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 67 Reviews | ## Images ![Barbie Takes the Catwalk: A Style Icon's History in Fashion - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71hJriyO27L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Concept for a book *by S***K on 3 January 2025* I liked this book a lot.
