Barbie doll fans the world over have collectively lost their minds with the recent trailer drop for the upcoming Barbie movie. While little is known so far as to what the movie is actually about, from what we’ve seen it looks like a lot of love & detail was put into the film. You know who else appreciates love & detail? Sims creators!
If you can’t wait until the movie releases in July, tide yourself over in the meantime by playing with Barbie doll(s) in the Sims 4! It’s not uncommon for simmers to refer to their characters as “pixel dolls,” as the Sims is such a versatile game that can be played in lots of ways. We have all sorts of content on this list to scratch that Barbie CC itch!
Check out our latest CC creation: A Barbie X Horses Bedroom CC pack. It includes 15 objects that add a good little mix into your Sims’ lives. Have a look!
Have you checked our Barbie themed vanity set though? You get 3 objects in this set, all in shades of pink.
And we’ve also created the following two Barbie sets. We hope you come to like both! Visit this link to download the bedroom set.

17. Barbie by Katverse
There are dozens of simmified Barbie dolls out there for players to download and enjoy, but I particularly like Katverse’s version because of how well it captures the essence of Barbie.

If you agree, you can download her for yourself but be sure to check the custom content list included if you want her to look like she does in the image!

Aren’t player-made stuff packs the best? Pihe89 recolored a variety of in-game items to give young sims their dream Barbie bedroom, totaling 20 new pieces.

21. Playable Barbie Dolls by AroundTheSims
ATS made this lovely set for Christmas a few years ago. It comes with deco gift bags and boxes, but the Barbie dolls themselves are toy objects that your young and youthful sims can play with! There are 3 different dolls in multiple skin tones so every little girl (or boy!) can see themselves represented in their favorite toy. To get this set go here and scroll down to December 18.
22. Sims 4 Barbie Doll Collection by Mel Bennett
This set has a little of everything so classifying it was a touch tricky. There are 2 deco Barbie dolls, as well as 2 CAS accessory versions for photos and an accompanying posepack. The dollhouse isn’t included but it’s linked to in the post. Visit this page and click the Mediafire or Goggle Drive [sic]link to download them, as the Patreon link no longer works.

If you want these toys for your own Barbie-fanatic sim, get them here!
24. Barbie Styling Head from AroundTheSims
No matter the decade, one thing seems constant: toy companies love making dismembered heads for kids to practice hair & makeup on. Now you can share this horror with your pixel dolls via the simmified version, which functions as a dollhouse with custom accessories. There’s also a deco version for players who prefer to have their kids’ toys judging them menacingly from a shelf, out of reach. If this sounds like your thing, head to December 8 on this page to download these heads for yourself.
25. Barbie Dream House by AroundTheSims
When I was little, I had a Barbie dollhouse. Unfortunately at that time I possessed a child-like grasp of weight distribution, and thought it would be fun to convince my baby sister to sit atop the house. What resulted was a pile of bent cardboard and disappointed plastic, and a bunch of homeless Barbie dolls. Oops!
Though sims can’t do anything as foolish as child-me did, they can enjoy their own version of Barbie’s Dream House with this cute dollhouse by ATS. Hopefully no angry sims come by and smash it!
26. Barbie Paintings by DopeCherryBlossomHeart
If your sim is a fan of Barbie’s classic looks, they’ll love adorning their walls with this painting. There are 5 swatches of signature outfits that will blend into any Barbie fan’s collection as well as those who appreciate classic fashion. Go here for the paintings but be sure to get the needed mesh as linked in the post!
27. Barbie Set by SimmerKate
For a Barbie-loving sim who’s a little older, embrace the luxury of the Barbie life with these sweet deco items. There’s a plush fur bag and makeup case, a cute night light, and 2 drink tumblers adorned with some of her iconic logos. If you’d like these for your own game you can download them here!
28. Barbie Doll Box by eunosims
This object doesn’t have a lot of function outside of photo shoots and the perfect decor in a Barbie-themed room, but it’s such a cute and fun idea we had to feature it. Toss in a teleporter and download some poses and you’re ready to have your own Barbie photoshoot! Get the Barbie Doll Box here.
Looking to bump up your sim’s photography skill? Take a look at our guide!
Build Mode
Barbie is known for a lot of things. Her love of pink, her many skills, but let’s not forget about her properties! Barbie has had access to so many unique places throughout her career from trendy townhouses to elaborate estates and everything in between. Take a tour with us of some great Barbie builds for the Sims 4!
29. Barbie Kiddies Party Venue by LaSkrillz Gaming
5 year-old me would have lost my mind to have a birthday party like this! LaSkrillz created a whole set of Barbie themed party items and then even built a space so you can start playing with them right away. There’s a cake table, selfie wall, goody bags, and so many pink balloons! This would be a great set for some photoshoots with your sims’ children and their friends. If you’ve got a sim in mind who would go gaga for this kind of party, grab the set and venue (room) here!
Barbie not the party theme your sim is looking for? Perhaps they’d prefer to celebrate at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria!
30. Barbie Dream Apartment by Chrissie
A fabulous girly apartment full of clutter and glam, with lots of build tricks thrown in for some truly unique vibes! Visit this link to watch the whole apartment build, and check the video description to get the download link!
31. Barbie Toy House by DambiSims
How clever is this?! From the front it looks like an ordinary, albeit very pink, house. Go to the back though, and you’re hit with a surprise! This creative build is designed to look like a giant dollhouse that opens from the back, including the detachable walls. The house and yard is full of garish pink decor that’s just perfect for Barbie. Find this house on TSR!
32. Pretty Much EVERYTHING by KateEmerald
It was impossible to pick a single Barbie build from Kate Emerald to feature here because she has made so many amazing builds for the Sims 4 that will completely astound you, the process of which she features on YouTube. Trust us, you’re better off just downloading all of them:
33. Malibu Barbie Collaboration by SIMplee Tierra & Friends
A massive undertaking by nearly a dozen different people, SIMplee Tierra & friends created a save file for the Sims 4 that turns Del Sol Valley into an 80’s-90’s malibu Barbie paradise! It’s sunny, bright, retro, and (mostly) pink and reminds me of the Barbie dolls I played with when I was a little girl. Plus, it’s so much cooler than the the version of Del Sol Valley that ships with Get Famous.
Visit this YouTube link for the virtual tour and check the video description for the file download.
Want a more modern, less pink save file? Why not try LilSimsie’s?
Even More Barbie CC!
Here are a few last odds & ends we wanted to include that didn’t fit into the categories above!
34. Barbie & Ken Poses by Hiyut
Remember those cute outfits from entry #5? Here are the poses to go along with them! There are 8 poses for Barbie & Ken together as well as 6 standalone poses for Barbie. You could even mix and match them with the Barbie box we featured in entry #25!
Visit the link to see all the poses and download them for yourself!
35. Mugshot Poses by Surely-Sims
Since this post was first written, the full trailer for the movie came out which featured a scene of Barbie & Ken getting taken in by the LAPD and having their mugshots taken. Surely-Sims took those iconic shots and used them to build a fabulous pack of 10 mugshot poses in varying levels of ridiculousness (along with the accessory card). These poses are proving to be a big hit on #simblr for Barbie fans and pose collectors alike!
Bonus: Barbie Lookbooks by SilwerMoon Sims!
Though she has a specific section dedicated to the many lookbooks she’s created, Silwermoon is such a big Barbie fan that she has several pages of content solely dedicated to recreating Barbie’s antics in the Sims 4. Not every entry includes a lookbook but if you’re after inspiration for dressing up your own Barbie sims, or hoping to find a specific item for your own recreations, it’s worth giving her blog a visit.
And if you’re looking for an extra realistic version of Barbie in the Sims, you must check this link.
Love lookbooks? We’ve got a whole post about them with over 50 curated outfits!

Final Thoughts
After scrolling through this list it should come as no big shock that a lot of Barbie doll fans are also Sims 4 fans and vice versa. Barbie is all about creating your own world and following your imagination and building the experience you want to have, and the Sims 4 isn’t very different from that. If you’re a massive Barbie fan suffering a lack of Barbie content in the Sims, you are now equipped with a list of fashionable, functional, flirty, fantastic files to remedy that. We hope you enjoyed this list and that it holds you over until the movie comes out!
