Watch: The Evolution of Barbie

New Barbie doll body shapes of (L-R) petite, tall and curvy are seen next to the traditional Barbie in a photo released by Mattel on January 28, 2016. Barbie, the world's most famous doll, has a new body. In fact, she has three new bodies - petite, tall and curvy. Some 57 years after the impossibly busty and narrow-waisted blue-eyed Barbie doll was first introduced, California-based toy maker Mattel on Thursday released the new models, which it says better reflect a changing world.
