Go Gaga Over Mattel's New Goddess of the Galaxy Barbie Doll

While Mattel has yet to come out with an Official Lady Gaga Barbie Doll, their newest Gold Label Collector doll, The Goddess of The Galaxy Barbie is as close as you're gonna get until they do.



Designed by Bill Greening, this new collectible Barbie sports galactic glamour in the form of a molded metallic corset embellished with fuchsia "jewels" above a layered underskirt of shimmering fabric, a dramatic pinstripe cape, and silvery forearm and leg cuffs. Silvery rings with "jeweled" accents orbit an up-do with twisted platinum braids, and her dramatic face paint features ultra long, rooted, feathered lashes. Her thigh-high platform boots would no doubt be coveted by Lady Gaga herself.

The $100 Direct Exclusive Barbie Collector doll is only available in the US and 4,200 were made. She is currently sold out but you can find some of them here on ebay.

Limited Edition Hemp and Rag Doll Rug By Estudio Campana

Made in a limited edition of 10 pieces, the Circus rug for Nodus Rugs is a wild blend of rag dolls and hemp.



Simultaneously creepy and cool, the modern rug was designed by the Campana Brothers who often use dolls in their work such as this similar chandelier for Venini as part of their Esperança Collection:

and the Multidao Chair they created in 2002:


The hand-knotted rug is crafted in Nepal and is a 200cm irregular circle. The 3cm deep pile is a moss green and the rag dolls are embedded in the area rug as if reclining on a patch of grass.

The Circus rug must be special ordered and takes three months to deliver.
