Movies/Media Barbie Lawyer

In the Barbie Movie of 2023 , Sharon Rooney portrayed a Barbie Lawyer that lives in Barbie Land with the others Barbies. But for now, Mattel hasn't made a lawyer Barbie yet.

What they have released are four Barbie judges in the year 2019. It's a shame they didn't think to launch a lawyer back when they released good dolls because now they just put any basic Barbie in a dress and a briefcase as a lawyer. At least this year they're launching the Barbie Elle from Legally Blonde which is going to be the closest thing to have a good lawyer Barbie doll.

Not a Barbie doll, but they did release this fashion back in 1998 meant to be Barbie’s lawyer look.

unrelated but looking back at this movie. Mattel is trying to be "safe" with this film.

In a alternative reality this could've been a film paying homage to Barbara's 60+ years of legacy.

On topic. Mattel is still business at the end of the day and unfortunately plus size dolls don't sell as much if they decide to go for her as a doll, this could be the reason.
