Barbie’s Real-Life Measurements

Legendary shoe designer Christian Louboutin was badmouthing his newest client, Barbie, this past week. According to the French designer, Barbie “has fat ankles,” so he recreated the doll with skinnier legs for the new collection, to come out this year. Ouch—wonder what this shoe god says about our non-one-inch ankles.

Ever wonder, if Barbie were a real woman, what her measurements would be? We’ll tell you.

Barbie’s Feet

The owner of over one million pairs of shoes, more than any other woman in the world, Barbie’s feet would be a child’s size three.

Barbie’s Bust

Barbie's bust size would be 39 inches and she would have to crawl to support her top-heavy frame. Her bra size would be a 39 FF, putting Dolly Parton’s 40 DDs to shame.

Barbie’s Waist

Barbie’s measurements would be an unrealistic 39-21-33. If Barbie had the hips of an average American woman, size 14, she would be 8’ 9’’. The likelihood of a real woman having Barbie’s body shape is less than one in 100,000.

Barbie’s Arms

Barbie wouldn’t have room in her arms to have all her bones.

Barbie’s Head

Barbie’s head would be almost triple the size of a normal-sized head. Her neck would be twice the length of a normal neck and it would only be able to hold either a trachea or an esophagus, leaving her to choose between eating and breathing.
