2019 KITH x Barbie - Finalist: Mekka Gutierrez (Barbie )

Barbie collaborated with KITH, the new king of streetwear, and held a contest. Participants were able to participate by trying to personalize one of the four dolls with 80 custom clothing items and accessories from the real-life Kith Women line. The dolls were photographed and analyzed by great professionals and trendsetters. Likewise, the public voted on social networks for the six best looks. The winning design was produced and sold by Mattel through KITH stores in 2020. 3st finalist: Avery Borovetz KITH Kith Women x Barbie - September 17, 2019 Kith Women is proud to announce its latest collaboration with Barbie.

The panel of judges will include Dianne Garcia, Jackie Kim director of Kith Women, Maeve Reilly, Ade Samuel and Kith founder Ronnie Fieg.
