Would you tell me what "The Gruvvy Formal Collection" is?

-Oooohh!! A Nehru jacket!
Barbie!!! Not the Nehru...!
-This is from, what -- 1967?
-The Gruvvy Formal Collection, yes!
 -What a shame...
-Oh, no! No! No, no, no...!!!
--------------------------------------------------in the movie, Toy story3

I read "The Gruvvy Formal Collection" in the scripts.
but I don't see what it means in the context above.
so I tried to find it out , searching the web.but I couldn't.
I have thought "Gruvvy is written wrong Instead of groovy."
but I'mnot sure.

so I'd like you answer my questions. would you please...?

Hi Ijswave! Did you mean this ?
Barbie: A Nehru jacket!
Ken: Barbie! Not the Nehru!
Barbie: This is from what? 1967?
Ken: The Groovy Formal Collection, yes!
Barbie: What a shame.
I know this as groovy-which means attractive,interesting or fashionable.

Additional meaning comes from knowing that "groovy" meant attractive/fashionable several decades ago, so simply calling it "groovy" means it is hopelessly out of date.
