The new line, which will be available in the fall, introduces a new braided hair texture and a new Barbie body type that’s described as having “a smaller bust, less defined waist and more defined arms.” Best of all though, the new line will also include two dolls with permanent physical disabilities: one doll that uses a wheelchair and another doll with a prosthetic leg. Love it!
