The 2023 'Lunar New Year' collaboration between Mattel and couturier Guo Pei features dragon embroidery that is true to Pei's signature style. It is a new addition to the Signature Collection. The first collab doll, from 2022, wears red, symbolizing good fortune and abundance. Guo Pei is a Beijing-based designer well-known for her ornate, precious metal-detailed, and stone-embellished gowns. Her designs bridge Western fashion with traditional Chinese emblems and artistry. She gained international recognition when Rihanna wore her gold-embroidered, yellow imperial cape to the 2015 Chinese-themed Met Gala, which inspired the 'Gold Yellow Crown' doll.
