Margot Robbie's Best Barbie-Inspired Looks So Far

She's everything. And so are her glamorously on-theme looks for the film's press tour.

The hot pink and dreamy world of Barbie Land may be the genius creation of director Greta Gerwig, but actress Margot Robbie has proven that the glamorous and fun aesthetic of the movie can cross into the real world just like Barbie does herself. With the help of her stylist, Andrew Mukamal, Robbie brought the world of Barbie to life as the cast heads on their press tour prior to the release of the film. 

From directly referencing the Mattel dolls to emulating the unmistakably pink styles Barbie would definitely beg Ken to buy for her, Robbie’s looks are some of the best promo for the movie. Barbie may be president, she may be a doctor, and she may be a Nobel laureate and published author, but what she will always be first is a fashion icon. As we work on building our own hot pink outfits to rock at the theaters, L’OFFICIEL has rounded up Margot Robbie’s best Barbie looks.

Robbie started off the year strong with a striking red carpet appearance at the 2024 Golden Globe Awards. Channeling the 1977 "Superstar Barbie," Robbie turned heads with a sequin hot pink gown and a matching tulle boa by Armani Privé. She also accessorized with jewelry by the celebrity-favorite designer Lorraine Schwartz valued at $3 million.

After a string of pink or sequin Barbie looks, Robbie opted for a more casual vibe. Inspired by the "Cherry Pie Picnic Barbie" that was released in 2015, Robbie attended a panel at the Deadline Contenders Film event in Los Angeles. She donned a full Bottega Veneta ensemble: a cherry-printed shirt, dark-wash jeans, and a red bucket bag.

At the London premiere, Robbie wore a light pink satin gown and accessorized with a pearl necklace. Styled by Mukamal, this custom Vivienne Westwood recreated the "Enchanted Evening Barbie," which was first released in 1960. They certainly spared no detail — and that included the rosette, draped train, and white opera gloves.

Dressing for 'Barbie' press, it's performance art, and Robbie knows just how to channel the theatrics of the dolls. To copy the Day to Night dolls from 1985, Robbie wears both a textured Versace midi dress and a Versace blazer and skirt set, complete with a custom phone and bag to match the dolls. All in the doll's unmistakable hot pink, of course.

With crimped hair and neon Chanel earrings, Robbie looks majorly, totally cool in another '90s inspired look for press in Mexico City. She wears a ruffled mini dress from Emilio Pucci in one of the designer's trademark geometric prints. The look takes inspiration from the Totally Hair Barbie from 1992, and Robbie's golden locks match perfectly.
 

As Margot Robbie inspects the Mattel Barbie dolls inspired by the film, it's clear to see how it was so easy to recreate her character as a toy. She wears a full look from Versace, a light pink corset and a hot pink skirt, to meet her doll and do some promo for the movie.

Everything about this look is so perfectly Barbie, from the light pink Bottega Veneta set and bag to the matching pink convertible and even the Malibu palm trees.

 

A lot of the Barbie costumes that weren't made by costume designer Jacqueline Durran and her team come from the Chanel archives. The dress Robbie wears for her dreamhouse tour with Architectural Digest is one that she wears in the film, and perfectly fits in with the aesthetic of the other outfits that magically appear in Barbie's wardrobe at the start of each day.
