Julie Bowen's Emmy Look or Perfume Pretty Barbie: Discuss

When Julie Bowen hit the Emmys red carpet in a pale pink Zac Posen gown, viewers were conflicted about her look. Some said she looked "pretty in pink" others declared her look "too '80s" and one person said it reminded them of a Beverly Hills, 90210" prom dress. While I'd agree with both those sentiments, I thought the "Modern Family" star was a dead ringer for Perfume Pretty Barbie, a 1987 Mattel doll that came with a matching mini fragrance. The bow at the bust, the gathered ruffly hem, the same unmistakable shade of pink-it's too coincidental! Designer and "Project Runway" judge Zac Posen just happens to be 32 years old, the same age as me, and supposedly began his design career as a young child when he would use yarmulkes to make gowns for dolls. Call me crazy, but I think Posen was inspired by Barbie. Who's with me?
