Off-White Teams-Up With Mattel on Monster High Capsule Collection

Off-White is celebrating the brand’s 10th anniversary and the upcoming Halloween holiday by collaborating with Mattel on a special Monster High capsule collection.

Aptly named “Memorabilia,” the collection features four of the legendary monster dolls dressed in edgy Off-White ensembles. The partnership embraces both Off-White’s historical disruption of fashion norms, as well as Monster High’s promotion of individuality and accepting differences, the companies said.

“The genesis of this collaboration was a meeting of minds in late 2020/early 2021, where the dynamic fusion of Virgil Abloh’s creative vision and Monster High’s distinctive character sparked a groundbreaking partnership,” Kim Culmone, the senior vice president head of doll design at Mattel said in a statement. “As Mattel Creations’ most fashion-forward work in 24 years, this collaboration signifies the celebration of creativity, non-conformity and the boundless possibilities that arise when fashion, art and toy culture converge.”

In the campaign images, the plastic dolls, standing at mere inches high, can be seen wearing one-shoulder body-con dresses with the word “dress” adorned in front, black-and-white houndstooth sheer skirt sets and black heels with a clear outer layer.

As a brand, Off-White is known for incorporating wordplay into its designs, putting things in quotation marks directly onto clothing pieces. For accessories, the Monster High dolls can be seen toting a miniature version of the brand’s black Burrow shoulder bag, with delicate details including circular cutouts and a red utilitarian-themed zip-tie.

Mattel, known for creating Barbie, debuted Monster High dolls back in 2010. The original lineup of dolls included Clawdeen Wolf, Lagoona Blue, Cleo de Nile and Draculara. Along with Mattel, Off-White has collaborated with Nike, Ikea, Warbey Parker, the Chicago Bulls and more.
