Come on Camilla, let’s go party.

Queen Camilla is the latest famous face to become a Barbie, and she certainly dressed the part to mark the debut of her special Mattel doll at Buckingham Palace Tuesday.

The 76-year-old royal dressed in a cropped black Amanda Wakeley cape and a cobalt blue Fiona Clare dress — the exact outfit worn by the doll made in her likeness — as a Mattel representative presented her with the Barbie in honor of her work with the Women of the World Foundation.

The queen called it “brilliant” and joked that the Barbie looked much younger than she does, quipping, “takes about 50 years off my life!” in a video.

Camilla’s Barbie nails many of the details of the queen’s style; she even wears a version of her ever-present blue-and-gold Van Cleef Vintage Alhambra bracelet ($4,800) along with pearl drop earrings resembling the royal’s.

The doll also dons a WOW pin on her blazer, although Queen Camilla wore hers pinned to her dress Tuesday.

While King Charles III’s wife sported black suede boots today, her doll wears sheer black stockings and matching heels similar to the Sole Bliss styles the royal often rocks.

Her Barbie presentation wasn’t the only exciting moment of the day; Queen Camilla met with inspirational women at a Women’s Day reception including Queen Mathilde of Belgium, Helen Mirren, Spice Girl Melanie Brown and her daughter, Phoenix Brown.

The outing follows Monday’s celebration of Commonwealth Day, which saw the queen in a black dress for an event at Malborough House following a service at Westminster Abbey also attended by Prince William.

The royal family is certainly in a time of distress as fans question Kate Middleton’s medical condition and her whereabouts after a photo of her with her children shared on Sunday was revealed to be Photoshopped, causing the Princess of Wales to apologize for the mishap.
