Eight years after Barbie was first sold on the Chinese mainland, the bright pink Shanghai launch has been arranged to draw in the customers.

The owner of the Barbie brand, Mattel, says market research shows that previous generations of women in China who didn't have the chance to play with Barbie as a girl, are now also keen Barbie fans.
