BARBIE has long been hogging the fashion doll limelight, but it looks as if her ex-boyfriend Ken will be getting the same style treatment. To celebrate his 50th birthday, a host of menswear's top names will create new looks for the famous doll - displaying them at Christie's in New York from February 14 - 20 and in two pop-up locations in New York and LA.
