This is fairly awesome: Special Barbie commemorates Hitchcock's The Birds
In 1963, Alfred Hitchcock, the Master of Suspense, gave us a tale of terror not soon forgotten in his film “The Birds.” Dressed in a re-creation of the stylish green skirt-suit worn by the film’s ill-fated heroine in an iconic scene, Alfred Hitchcock’s “The Birds” Barbie® Doll celebrates the 45th anniversary of the acclaimed film. From the doll’s classic ensemble to the perfectly painted expression to the accompanying black birds, every aspect captures the film’s infamous appeal.

I dunno. I mean, she has more of an expression on her face than Tippi Hedren ever managed.
Birds Barbie is as neatly turned out at Tippi Hedren. One thing that nags at me when I'm watching The Birds is how she survives attacks by flocks of homicidal birds without ever getting a run in her stockings or having the urge to change into something more appropriate for fleeing homicidal birds than a matching dress and jacket and high heels.
But which one?
Trick question! Though I'm gonna opt for cool blonde.

I suppose she was setting the couture standards for homicidal-bird fleeing.

What could possibly be more appropriate for facing terrifying events than a sharp outfit? How can one keep one's spirits up in tatty dungarees?
