What Barbie would look like if she had the body of an average 19 year old
May 3, 2013
If you take the average measurements of a 19 year old and compare them with a lifesize model of Barbie proportions this is what you get. Quite a difference.
Barbie is huge! She is 5 inches taller than the average young woman.
Barbie isn’t just a thin woman — her waist is almost half the size of an average woman’s, just 18 inches.
Barbie is also missing a rib cage.
Barbie’s hands are tiny.
Barbie has a smaller torso but larger bust size.
Note that you’re looking at the “same” person — only the hair color and the body proportions have been changed.
