Clearly Barbie was merely designed to mirror Christina Hendricks.

Sure, if it was marketed towards WOMEN it would.
It's not.
It's marketed towards girls. Innocent, insecure, gullible girls, of the preteen/pubescent kind. Sorry, had to be alliterative.

Your alliteration lacks likeness to this low-grade language lackey.
But why are they making fun of Barbie when they really should be making fun of the girl on the left of the picture. I mean look at her tiny Space-marine head.

I always thought that the explanation was that it made money, and made people insecure and/or materialistic, so that they'd buy more products later in life.
