And as cool as each and every designer clad Barbie® is, what's even better is that 12 dolls in their designer-original-duds are being auctioned on eBay, with all the proceeds going to the Council of Fashion Designers of America's education initiatives and scholarship programs.

Girlawhirl isn't sure which designer's doll to bid on. Will it be Tory Burch? Isaac Mizrahi? Rachel Roy? Or any of the others that are sure to tempt her? When the bidding closes on February 7, 2010, she just might be one of the lucky ones who can add a very chic doll to her grown-up Barbie collection.

But no worries if she misses out on the auction. The Barbie Basics collection featuring the dolls in their little black dresses is available online.
