Ever for the reason that first movie stills of a bubbly Margot Robbie in Greta Gerwig’s Barbie have been unveiled—she performs the titular function within the movie, hitting cinemas subsequent summer season—there’s been a sickeningly-sweet fashion shift. Enter: Barbiecore.
Barbie is the unlikely muse of 2022. The antithesis of goth woman summer season’s emo angle, Barbie fashion is all about wanting fairly in pink. Take the lead from Margot, who’s been dwelling her greatest blonde bombshell life on the set of the movie. The actor has been papped strutting in Western flares and a waistcoat; and rollerblading in stretchy ’80s neon gymgear. (Suppose: Jane Fonda dwelling train movies on acid.) Her Ken, Ryan Gosling, has twinned her vibrant seems, donning a contemporary bleached hair-do to suit the half.
In the meantime, IRL lovebirds Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly have got down to rival the on-screen duo. On the premiere of Machine Gun Kelly’s new documentary, Life In Pink, the pair seemed each inch a real-life Barbie and Ken, sporting matching pink rinses as well. Each championed London-based designers for the event: Megan arrived in 2021 LVMH Prize winner Nensi Dojaka, and MGK in rising star Chet Lo. The next day, Megan continued her Barbie-inspired seems in metallic separates by The Andamane, worn with a crystal-choked mini bag by L’Alingi.
