American Girl's new '80s-inspired doll promotes STEM learning
American Girl is bringing back the '80s. The Mattel-owned brand has added a new doll to its collection, and she's devoted to the decade of big hair and new wave rock, the brand announced Tuesday. In honor of the new American Girl Doll, the Mattel-owned company is matching customer donations to Girls Who Code. Her name is Courtney Moore, the first addition to the brand's historical collection -- aimed at educating and empowering young women about history and pop culture through stories -- in three years. Courtney, in all of her big hair and scrunchie-wearing glory, wears an '80s-inspired, high-waisted, acid-wash jean skirt, hot pink tights and faux leather boots.
