Margot Robbie Barbie Tour Dates

The marketing rollout for Greta Gerwig’s Barbie movie has been impressive, ubiquitous, and extremely pink, spanning countless brand collaborations and in-person activations, like the life-size pink Barbie Dream House in Malibu, now listed on Airbnb. But some of the most compelling marketing for the film comes straight from its star, Margot Robbie.

Ahead of its July 21 release, fans have delighted in her impeccable red carpet recreations of Barbie’s most glamorous looks from over the years. Working with stylist Andrew Mukamal, Robbie has sported high fashion versions of iconic outfits worn by Barbie in different eras, from the legendary black and white striped swimsuit worn by the first Barbie in 1959 to the hot pink day-to-night working woman ensemble that a career-minded doll wore in 1985. According to Robbie, the recreations are tributes to Barbie fans.

“We’re finding Barbie references from decades past and just doing it really for the big Barbie fans out there, people who are actually collecting those Barbies, ” Robbie told People at the film’s premiere in Los Angeles, where she wore a custom Schiaparelli recreation of the black cocktail dress worn by the 1960 “Solo in the Spotlight” Barbie. “We’re hoping to get them excited… We’re pairing Barbie references with great designers.”

All Of Margot Robbie's Best 'barbie' Press Tour Looks

Robbie has likely sported her last Barbie-themed look ahead of the movie’s release date because of the SAG-AFTRA strike, which officially launched on July 13. The strike unites members of the actors’ and writers’ unions on the picket line for the first in more than 60 years, and prevents actors from doing promoting their film and TV projects. Robbie’s July 12 red carpet outfit for Barbie may have been a subtle nod to the historic shutdown. Her pale pink Vivienne Westwood gown was a tribute to the “Enchanted Evening” Barbie—which, blogger Lainey Gossip pointed out, was released in 1960, the same year that actors and writers were last on strike at the same .

That Robbie’s tour looks became a fashion phenomenon is fitting, given that Barbie creator Ruth Handler always intended for fashion to be a major part of the doll’s appeal. Fed up with the lack of toy options for girls, who typically could choose between baby dolls or paper dolls to play with, Handler created one through which they could embody their future dreams—in part by dressing her in different outfits.

To recreate this flirty pink polka dot outfit, Mukamal turned to the archives of Valentino, taking inspiration from a maroon polka dot halter neck midi dress from the fashion house’s Spring/Summer 1993 collection. For Robbie’s look, Valentino updated the design in a bright pink and white polka dot fabric and shortened the hem to be a mini dress, which Mukamal paired with a yellow Valentino Rockstud purse, white Manolo Blahnik pumps, and a set of Assael pearl earrings and matching bracelet.

For this iconic look, Mukamal pulled a black and white strapless bandage dress from Hervé Legér to pay homage to Barbie’s black and white striped one-piece swimsuit, then accessorized it with a pair of white Jacques Marie Mage cat eye sunglasses with blue lenses, Spinelli Kilcollin hoop earrings, and a pair of black Manolo Blahnik peep toe heeled mules.

Premiere in South Korea, Mukamal re-created not one but two looks for the red carpet to pay tribute to the versatile style of Barbie as a working woman. For the first “day” look, he dressed Robbie in an Atelier Versace fuchsia skirt suit with white accents, which he accessorized with an ascot tie, boater hat, matching Manolo Blahnik spectator pumps, and a jeweled Judith Leiber purse shaped like a cell phone from the . For the second “night” look, Robbie wore a party dress in the same shade of fuchsia with a full tulle skirt and matching peep toe heeled mules from Manolo Blahnik.

The inspiration for this outfit comes from a 1964 Barbie who wore a sparkling pink sheath dress with a matching jacket and pillbox hat. To recreate it, Mukamal dressed Robbie in an embellished dress and jacket set from Moschino, which he paired with a bow-festooned pillbox hat, matching Manolo Blahnik peep toe heeled mules, and a matching quilted heart purse.

To recreate the look of the “Earring Magic” Barbie doll that debuted in 1992, Mukamal enlisted Balmain to create a hot pink mini dress with sheer sleeves and a leather bustier dress, which was paired with large star earrings and a matching star chain belt.

While the most outstanding feature of the 1992 “Totally Hair” Barbie doll may have been her ankle-length tresses, her swirl print mini dress gave it some serious competition. To recreate this look, Mukamal dressed Robbie in a Pucci mini dress and paired it with a pink Chanel purse, hot pink Manolo Blahnik pumps, and Taffin earrings.

Premiere in L.A., Mukamal drew inspiration from one of the most iconic Barbie looks of all —the “Solo in the Spotlight” Barbie, who sports a sparkling black strapless sheath dress with a voluminous hem. To bring this look to life, he tapped Schiaparelli to recreate the dress, down to the red rose detail on the hem. Like the Barbie, Robbie accessorized with black opera gloves, black Manolo Blahnik peep toe heeled mules, a Lorraine Schwartz diamond necklace and earrings, and a pink handkerchief.

Margot Robbie Allegedly Had Tons Of Work Done To Be Barbie

To recreate the ultra-femme formal outfit worn by 1960’s “Enchanted Evening” Barbie, Mukamal pulled a corseted pink Vivienne Westwood gown with a train and rosette detail at the waist. Robbie’s hair was also styled in an updo reminiscent of the doll’s high ponytail. He paired the look with a fur stole, an Assael cultured pearl choker, and embellished Christian Louboutin pumps.movie is released next month, we’ve been given a sneak peek into the world of the iconic doll thanks to a recent house tour video like no other.

The film’s star Margot Robbie has taken us on a tour of the real-life Barbie Dreamhouse from the movie over on Architectural Digest’s YouTube channel.

As you may have expected, there is a lot of pink. So much pink – allegedly – that the movie led to a worldwide shortage of pink paint during filming. There’s everything from a pink fridge, toaster, stove and dining room table in the kitchen, to a magical

In the video we also hear from the movie’s director Greta Gerwig, who revealed, “I wanted to capture what was so ridiculously fun about the Dreamhouses. We sat with all these different kinds of pinks and we were like, ‘What is the pink? How do the pinks interact?’ When I was a girl, I wanted the brightest things.”

But it’s not just all about Barbie’s favourite colour. Specific details bring the Dreamhouse to life while also giving a nod to the dollhouses that children the world over grew up playing with. For example, the kitchen had decals of food instead of real food. Even the hair brushes and toothbrushes are larger than life, giving viewers that true doll-like experience.

When it comes to Margot’s favourite detail in the Dreamhouse, it had to be the giant twisty water slide that connects Barbie’s bedroom to the waterless pool.

Margot recalled having that one special request when the Dreamhouse came to life. “Please, please, please can we have a Dreamhouse where she has a slide that goes from her bedroom down to her pool because that is my goal in life, ” the actor asked the director.

The house itself was influenced by 1950s and early 1960s design – with the famous doll being invented in 1959 – and immediately conjures up the feeling of a mid-century Palm Springs home.

It’s safe to say that it’s everything we could have hoped for and more. And we’re not the only ones to think that.
