Have you ever known somebody before they were somebody? Or known someone who believed they were destined to become somebody, even if no one else did? Or was that you? Did you fulfill a dream, whatever it was, big or small, against the odds? You didn’t come from the right place, you didn’t look the right way, you didn’t have the sound or the style or the talent you were told you needed to make it. But you did.
That’s the dream behind Backwoods Barbie. We look at Loretta, a coal miner’s daughter. We look at Dolly, with her coat of many colors. We look at the beauty of the struggle, of going from where you came from to who and where you wanted to be.
The Backwoods Barbie collection celebrates all of that. The desire and courage to chase a dream. The belief that you can always reinvent yourself; change your style, change your path, change your destiny. The conviction of knowing that where you come from doesn’t dictate where you’re going.
