There probably isn’t a soul in America over age three who doesn’t know the nameBarbie.
She’s been around longer than the computer mouse and she went to the moon before Neil Armstrong.
Barbie’s been painted by Andy Warhol and depicted on the runway and emulated at the Met Gala.
Barbie is an indelible part of the world’s social fabric.
We even speak about her legacy as if she were an actual person.
That’s how big of an impact this doll has had on American culture since the late ’50s.
And she wasn’t kidding.
Robbie used actual Barbie dolls and outfits for much of her wardrobe inspiration for the film’s press tour.
Her take on the original Barbie
Barbie entered the zeitgeist in 1959.
Since then, over abillionBarbie dolls have been sold worldwide.
Of those dolls, though, none are quite as iconic as the original Barbie.
She wore her hair in a ponytail and sported a bright red lip.
It’s one of the most recognizable looks of all time.
If you told us the original Barbie was modeled after Robbie, we’d believe you.
The actor arrived at the premiere as the Solo in the Spotlight Barbie from 1960.
In true Barbie fashion, Robbie’s shoes, hair, lipstick, and accessories were perfectly paired.
And she’s got a lot of them.
But few of Barbie’s modes of transportation are quite as glamorous as her pink convertible.
Robbie’s hair was flawless, too, with her blonde locks styled in cascading waves.
The overarching color scheme of the day was, of course, pink.
Color played a major part in the creation of the “Barbie” movie as well.
Yes, the hue is important to Barbie.
The day-to-night look
Part of Barbie’s charm is that she is good at everything including multitasking.
And so can Margot Robbie, apparently.
Robbie also accessorized the day part of the outfit with a bedazzled Judith Leiber pink cell phone clutch.
Robbie accessorized both the day and night versions of her look with small pink purses.
Take the dress she wore to the “Barbie” Celebration Party at Sydney’s Museum of Contemporary Art.
“Barbie doesn’t dress for the day.
She dresses for the task.”
Likewise, Robbie has dressed with intention while promoting the film.
For many ’90s kids, that was Totally Hair Barbie.
Indeed, Totally Hair Barbie had hair for days, and she rocked it like none other.
She’s one busy doll.
We’re hoping to get them excited."
And excited we are!
Robbie channeled Look 1 of the 2015 Pink & Fabulous collection, released in 2015.
Her accessories were on point too white heels, a yellow bracelet, and a yellow quilted purse.
Unlike the doll, Robbie’s dress featured a midriff-bearing cut-out and halter-top neckline.
The meta gingham ensemble
For her CinemaCon outfit, Margot Robbie went meta.
She completed the look with matching earrings and an elegant updo.
Robbie’s London look ended up punctuating the “Barbie” press tour.
But we’re grateful for the stellar Barbie looks she gave us while she could.
