A real-life Barbie would have wrists that are 3.5 inches and would need to walk on all fours. In response, artist Nickolay Lamm created an “alternative” Barbie earlier this year using the measurements of a typical 19-year-old girl from the Center for Disease Control, to show that “average is beautiful.” The design became the crowdfunded Lammily, with the first edition currently available for purchase. He’s back today with a new set of accessories—a sticker pack complete with “cellulite, stretch marks, freckles, acne, glasses, blushing, adhesive bandages, moles, temporary tattoo, stitches, scrapes & scratches, bruises, cast, scars, mosquito bites, grass, and dirt stains.”
