Canada's iconic department store teamed up with Canadian designers Narces, Hilary MacMillan, Hayley Elsaesser and accessories brand Biko to create a capsule collection inspired by the spirit of the beloved fashion doll. 
 
The collection, available at select Hudson’s Bay stores in Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, and Calgary, as well as at the Bay online, includes 30 imaginative pieces that reflect the design style of each designer and the various sides of Barbie. 

Throughout the collection, which includes eveningwear, casual pieces and jewelry, shoppers can find vibrant colours and prints on wide-leg pants and overalls by Hayley Elsaesser; dreamy dresses in luxe materials like sequin and tulle by Nikki Yassemi behind Narces; feminine and sophisticated blouses and pencil skirts by Hilary Macmillan; and classic, yet bold jewelry staples by jewelry line, Biko. 
 
The Hudson's Bay is one of many companies that have teamed up with Mattel Inc. to celebrate Barbie’s milestone. 
 
Other brands include Canadian retailer Ardene who debuted a Barbie-themed collection earlier this month, alongside other brands like Walmart Canada and Da Lish Cosmetics.
