Margot Robbie has taken her embodiment of Barbie’s essence seriously, leaving an indelible mark on fashion trends and press tours. As the curtain rises on the year 2024 and the commencement of the awards season, the actress-producer seems poised for yet another series of show-stopping red carpet appearances, drawing inspiration from the iconic Barbie aesthetic—a move that has enthralled and excited her fan base.
At the onset of 2024, Robbie graced the Golden Globe Awards, nominated for Best Actress in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy. Although the trophy eluded her that night, Robbie ensured that her presence lingered in the minds of onlookers. Her attire paid homage to the iconic Superstar Barbie doll from 1977, with a custom creation by Giorgio Armani Privé—a vibrant pink halter column dress accompanied by a matching mesh boa, a nostalgic nod to the doll’s original ensemble.
Robbie’s adaptation of the Barbie-inspired outfit for 2024 featured enhancements, including shimmering sequins adorning the dress and playful polka dots embellishing the boa. Substituting the doll’s sling-back Mary Janes, she opted for a sophisticated point-toe heel in a coordinating hot pink shade from Manolo Blahnik. While forgoing a diamond necklace, Robbie accessorized with striking jewelry—a statement ring and earrings crafted by Lorraine Schwartz.
Remaining faithful to the doll’s pale pink lips and a demure nude manicure, Robbie introduced her touch by opting for neutral eye makeup instead of the doll’s signature bright blue eyeshadow. She also chose to keep her hair down, deviating from the doll’s usual half-up, half-down style.
The meticulously curated look at the Golden Globes 2024 was a collaborative effort with her long-time stylist, Andrew Mukamal, who also masterminded her outfits during the movie’s press tour. Robbie’s glamorous appearance was further enhanced by the expertise of her beauty team: nail artist Betina Goldstein, makeup artist Pati Dubroff, and hair stylist Bryce Scarlett.
This latest homage to iconic Barbie dolls by Margot Robbie serves as a testament to her creative fashion statements. Fans eagerly await what doll-inspired look she might unveil next—perhaps a tribute to Toujours Couture Barbie or a nod to Barbie Fairytopia? The anticipation for her next appearance at an awards show is palpable, promising yet another display of fashion finesse and a celebration of Barbie’s enduring cultural influence.
