She’s always been a fashion icon in our eyes, and now Barbie’s got the award to prove it! At last night’s Accessories Council 13th Annual ACE Awards, Barbara Millicent Roberts (aka Barbie) was presented with the Fashion Icon of the Year award. After the awards ceremony, the busy blonde gave StyleList an exclusive interview:StyleList: How does it feel to be named Fashion Icon of the Year? Barbie: I am truly honored! And to think that Diane von Furstenberg presented me with my award! She is one of my style icons! SL: We love the Judith Leiber-designed ACE award, did you get to meet her?Barbie: Judith and I partnered back in 2005 when we did a fabulous doll together. It was fantastic to work with her again and of course I wore my Judith Leiber purse to the Awards on the red carpet. A Judith Leiber bag is a must-have for every fashionista!SL: What was it like having custom Louboutins made for you?Barbie: In 50 years, I have acquired over 1 billion pairs of shoes, however, my Louboutins are by far my favorite! Christian is a fantastic designer and I loved all the time I spent with him. My custom Louboutins make me feel like the luckiest doll in the world!SL: And what was all that talk about you having less than perfect ankles?Barbie: I’m a doll! My ankles are only 22mm in circumference! It was all just a big misunderstanding! Christian loves my ankles — it was my arch he wanted to give a little more “lift” so I could rock those high heels. It’s all in good fashion fun!SL: So, big news with the feature film being made about you. Who do you think should play Barbie?Barbie: Um, me… among my many careers, I’m also an actress, of course!
