Global toy and entertainment company Mattel, Inc, has created a Venus Williams Barbie doll, as a part of its Inspiring Women collection. It is also the first doll to be released in India, celebrating the tennis icon, who is not only an entrepreneur but also known to be an advocate for equal pay. 

The Venus Williams Inspiring Women doll wears a white tennis outfit from her 2007 Grand Slam victory, a win that also marked her historic push for equal prize money for women at top-level tournaments. The look is completed with accessories inspired by that moment, including a green gem necklace, wristband, visor, racket, and ball -- all recreated identically with Venus to highlight the moment.

This doll marks the debut of the series in the Indian market, paying tribute to remarkable women whose achievements have changed history and inspired generations.
