Jenkins revealed that the inspiration for the design stemmed from a childhood fascination with her mother’s collection of Barbie clothes. “I was just so fascinated by all these tiny little clothes,” Jenkins shared. “Like, you’re used to being the smallest thing in the room. And these were even smaller.”

Each piece of Barbie clothing was meticulously selected and arranged to form a cohesive and visually striking dress. Jenkins also designed a matching pink blazer, a last-minute addition that complemented the main outfit.

Jenkins’ achievement at the Her Universe Fashion Show highlights her exceptional talent and innovative approach to fashion. The Barbie-inspired ensemble not only celebrates the iconic doll but also showcases Jenkins’ ability to blend nostalgia with contemporary design.
