Barbie Chic: Margot Robbie Channels Iconic Doll With Showstopping Style

Margot Robbie has seamlessly stepped out of her role as the glamorous Barbie in director Greta Gerwig’s new film and into real life as the ultimate muse for Mattel’s beloved blonde bombshell. Attending the star-studded 2023 Gotham Awards in New York City, the Australian actress was a vision in high-fashion black tie, evoking Barbie’s signature polished aesthetic from head to toe.

Clad in an off-the-shoulder bustier gown with a dramatic side bow, Robbie looked every inch the living doll. The striking Prada number skimmed her enviable frame before pooling at her feet, allowing her endless legs to take center stage. Offering a masterclass in embellishing a LBD, she layered on a matching sheer cape mating a sculptural bow at the collar. Sophisticated yet playful, Robbie appeared as if she had just stepped off the shelf of the iconic DreamHouse.

Furthering the Barbie motif was her beauty look, which channeled the essence of the fashion doll in the most glamorous way. Sweeping her blonde tresses into a sleek high ponytail, Margot framed her aqua eyes with thick lashes and a hint of smoky shadow. With glowing skin, a swipe of rose lipstick, and groomed brows, she embodied the plastic fantastic visage recognizable to children and collectors worldwide.

Yet the standout detail of Robbie’s awards show ensemble? Her shoes, of course. Rather than classic pumps or glittering sandals, the I, Tonya actress donned PVC mules with a blunt pointed toe and on-trend squared heel. While latex footwear has recently enjoyed a high-fashion moment, Margot’s style decision served as an unmistakable tribute to Barbie’s signature accessory.

Who could forget the high-heeled plastic posable doll that debuted in 1959, instantly winning over girls with her fashion-forward wardrobe and haute shoes for every occasion? Whether dressed for a day at the beach or a night on the town, Barbie’s footwear has always been synonymous with her overall look. Robbie and her glam squad clearly had this in mind last night, choosing shoes that evoked Mattel’s most fashionable export.

Of course, this isn’t the first time Margot has embodied Barbiecore style in the wake of her box office smash. Earlier this month, she arrived at the film’s London premiere working a hot pink satin gown with a thigh-high slit, letting her endlessly long legs take center stage. The custom-made Gucci number was equal parts sultry and sweet, blending Old Hollywood glam with Mattel magic.

With awards season just kicking off, fans can expect more showstopping Barbie style from Robbie in the coming months. If last night’s Gothams look is any indication, the A-list actress has fully embraced playing real-life dress-up with inspiration from the beloved doll who taught girls around the world that fashion should above all be fun. Mattel’s motto claims Barbie can be anything she wants—and Margot is intent on proving that extends to her own red carpet style.
