Here's the product description: "With her unique voice, singular style, and stellar songwriting career, Stevie Nicks is a trailblazing icon. Now, to celebrate her amazing accomplishments as an artist, we are releasing the Stevie Nicks doll as our latest in the Barbie Music Series. We designed this doll with a flowing black dress (reminiscent of the outfit worn on the cover of the 1977 Rumours album) along with her signature platform boots. This tribute to one of the most successful songwriters of all time is a showstopping collectible for music fans everywhere."

As the description notes, the doll is inspired by the flowy black look Stevie wore on Fleetwood Mac's legendary Rumours album.

"My Stevie Barbie has been with me now for several months. When Mattel came to me asking if I would like to have a Barbie made in the Rumours cover style, I was very overwhelmed. Of course, I questioned, 'Would she look like me? Would she have my spirit? Would she have my heart…' When I look at her, I see my 27-year-old self — All the memories of walking out on a big stage in that black outfit and those gorgeous boots come rushing back — and then I see myself now in her face," Stevie said on Twitter.

"What we have been through since 1975 — the battles we have fought, the lessons we have learned — together. I am her, and she is me. She absolutely has my heart," she continued. "Thank you, Mattel, for working with me to make Stevie Barbie so pretty and so soulful and so real; she means the world to me!"

Stevie wasn't the only one taken aback (delightfully so) at the "Edge of Seventeen" singer becoming a Barbie. For many fans, realizing the doll is available for purchase had them wondering how old is too old to own a Barbie? The answer: never too old.
