LONDON /PRNewswire/ — With the world set to be gripped by Barbiecore™ fever this summer, global bag and accessories brand Kipling is thrilled to launch its collaboration with the iconic fashion doll.
Featuring a range of effortless everyday styles, the Barbie x Kipling collection includes eight bags and two new accessories. With iconic detailing and finished in Barbie pink with a new shiny glaze, these are lightweight, optimistic must-haves with a fresh feel and a super-energetic mood.
Kipling’s most wanted and bestseller styles include the Art lightweight tote and the compact Seoul backpack. Smaller-scale bags include the top handle Bina, cross-body Afia, shoulder bags Gabbie Mini and Ayda and the Creativity pouch. The collection is completed by the inclusion of the Yasemina waist-pack, the perfect option to complement your ensemble this summer.
