Margot Robbie as a Barbie can fly down the stairs and walk on water, as she appears to be going through a very relatable girlhood-to-womanhood identity crisis. A world of pink, pastels, and hard, shiny plastic packed with painstaking attention to detail. We’re calling it: Greta Gerwig’s Barbiemovie is set to be the biggest film event of the year (sorry to all the Oppenheimer truthers out there).
Whether you’re planning to doll yourself up for the July 21 release or are just curious about how to add someBarbieenergy to your wardrobe, we’ve combed through the trailers, promo pictures, and BTS clips to put together the best Barbie movie outfits. Think bigger than Barbiecore pink — we’ve covered different iterations of Barbie in all of her whimsical dresses, jumpsuits, swimwear, activewear, and more. Read on to find the best Barbie feather heels, gingham pieces, hair accessories (think: bows, berets, and cowboy hats), and even on-theme roller skates to cart up ASAP.
How to dress like Margot Robbie as Barbie in her pink, fluffy heels
When the first Barbie teaser trailer dropped, it set the internet alight. One scene, in particular, rocked algorithms the world over: Barbie stepping out of a pair of pink, fluffy heels, her feet perfectly pointed as a real Barbie doll’s would be. To quote director Bong Joon-ho, “To me, that’s cinema.”
Following the release of the extended trailer, we now know that Barbie’s feet — and her choice of footwear — play a significant role in her character development, so nabbing a pair of Barbie-esque shoes is the perfect (and easiest!) starting point for dressing like the character. Whether you opt for a platform heel or kitten heel, be sure to pick the pinkest pair you can find (bonus points for pompoms and other embellishments like bows and butterflies).
How to dress like Margot Robbie as No. 1 Ponytail Barbie
Our very first glimpse of Robbie as Barbie was nothing short of iconic. Dressed as No. 1 Ponytail Barbie — the original Barbie doll from 1959 — she stands proud and godlike in homage to 2001: A Space Odyssey. Nail the look with a black-and-white striped swimsuit, white cat-eye sunglasses, red lips, gold hoop earrings, and black peep-toe pumps.
How to dress like Margot Robbie as Pink Gingham Barbie
We see Margot Robbie’s Barbie sporting pink gingham several times in the film trailer, first in a ’50s-style flared sundress that she wears while getting ready, accessorized with a matching hair bow and statement daisy earrings and necklace. The second time, she’s on the beach in a playsuit with a heart-shaped cutout back, pink gingham sun hat, and plastic shell jewelry. So far, this is the print we’re most closely associating with Gerwig’s Barbie universe (Pink Gingham Barbie has also been immortalized in doll form by Mattel and championed by Robbie on the press tour).
How to dress like Margot Robbie as Disco Jumpsuit Barbie
What’s a big, blowout party without glitzy disco outfits, a group of friends, a choreographed dance…and intrusive thoughts? That’s how it rolls in Barbie Land, anyway, as Robbie’s Barbie kills the mood with some existential questions about death.
We’ll leave the philosophizing to Barbie but for your own disco queen look, you want to be thinking ultra glam and gold. In the film, Robbie wears a jumpsuit that seems to be a nod to the 1981 Golden Dream Barbie. If you really want to recreate this look, Barbie’s frothy headpiece could be a fun DIY project with some wire, tulle, gold ribbon, and a glue gun.
How to dress like Margot Robbie as Sailor Barbie
Barbie loves nothing more than a theme, as proven by her beachside sailor outfit (a look also adopted by her fellow Barbies). Throughout Barbie’s history, she’s had several nautical looks, mainly in the ’60s. She’s worn sailor stripes, retro bathing suits and bloomers, anchor motifs, and pleated skirts with suspenders. So this is a sign to go barefoot on the beach and rock a retro coastal look this summer.
How to dress like Margot Robbie as Cowgirl Barbie
Yeehaw! Barbie has gone country several times in the past (namely 1980’s Western Superstar Barbie and 1993’s Western Stampin’ Barbie), but Gerwig’s hot-pink Cowgirl Barbie feels fresh and contemporary; it’s an outfit we could easily imagine wearing to a Harry Styles concert. If you’re on the hunt for a similarly colorful Western look, keep an eye out for separates as well as bold jumpsuits to achieve an ultra-glam look.
How to dress like Margot Robbie as Rollerskating Barbie
How to dress like Margot Robbie as Pink Beret Barbie
When Robbie’s Barbie decides to leave Barbie Land and visit “the real world” to discover “the truth about the universe,” she dons the universal symbol of poets and philosophers: a beret. Naturally, hers is pink. You can also shop Peter Pan collar dresses and dainty pink bows to achieve her road trip look.

Like what you see? How about some more R29 goodness, right here?
A few weeks ago, a coworker reached out via Google Chat to ask if I knew of Fashivly, the TikTok-approved virtual styling service that uses a questionnaire to put together outfit and product recommendations based on your taste. I must admit this was one of the few TikTok trends that had fallen through the cracks of my compulsive FYP-scrolling behavior. So, when I saw the video she linked, in which a creator tried on outfit ideas put together by Fashivly stylists, I was mesmerized by the proposition this service was daring to offer.
Over the past few years, the world of virtual styling has grown exponentially. Propelled by social distancing in the pandemic, many styling professionals — including TikTok-famous Allison Bornstein — found themselves wanting to dress the masses from the comfort of their homes. Ashlyn Greer, the founder of Fashivly, was one of them.
Prior to lockdown measures, Greer had quit her job to pursue styling on her own. “I’m never going to do this if I don’t do it now and figure out what it is,” says Greer, who previously worked as a stylist with retailers like Nordstrom and Saks. Of course, she didn’t count on a pandemic to begin right as she decided to build a business that required her to see clients in person. A few months into the pandemic, a friend reached out to her for a styling inquiry, and Greer went back to an old trick. “I actually ended up remembering the stuff that I used to use back when I was a commercial stylist. I would put together head-to-toe looks with notes to get a sign off before we went to shoot,” she explains. “I basically used a version of that to put together looks for her.”
Thanks to word of mouth and the highly-shareable outfit recommendations and collages she’d give her friends, Greer eventually launched Fashivly, which today builds a shoppable PDF for clients, created by Greer and her co-founder Mollye Rivera. When customers book, they have the option to pick from a 5-look or 10-look package, prices at $79 and $129, respectively. And it’s grown more popular over the past year: On TikTok, searches for “Fashivly” have grown over 10 million views.
It all starts with the Fashivly questionnaire, which the co-founders developed to help them tune a client’s style preferences, as well as learn more details about their size and preferred fit without ever having to meet with them. “I think that’s something that’s really kind of helped us just grow,” Greer says. “We’re really more like your cool, best friends, but you’re getting style advice from.”
Given the service’s increasing popularity, I had to test for myself if the “cool, best friends” approach actually works virtually. After a brief conversation with Greer, which real clients don’t get to have, I filled out my questionnaire, which had me pull inspiration photos, my Instagram profile, and brands I usually shop from for the Fashivly team to narrow down my taste. It also asked for my lifestyle specs and how my wardrobe should service them. Although it was an exhaustive questionnaire, it didn’t take long to fill out — probably because I was already prepared with a style moodboard and reference images (pro tip: do your homework before filling it out).
Within less than two weeks, I received back a 10-look PDF that featured product links and specific occasions for each outfit presented in a collage format, much like the early days of Polyvore (if you remember that far back). At first glance, the outfits looked picked out straight from my closet, featuring a heavy neutral palette of black, white, navy, and beige, and recommending classic staples — vests, wide leg pants, and leather jackets among them — with a dash of trendy items, including Adidas Samba sneakers and denim maxi skirts.
While the idea is to shop the items listed in the PDF, many TikTok creators are testing the service with their own closet, giving me license to do the same before swiping my credit card. And, instead of the 10 looks, I picked out the ones that felt most like me, knowing full well that I owned similar items in my wardrobe.
Office to happy hour
The “office to happy hour” look suggested by Fashivly was actually a version of an outfit I had worn before. Only, this time, the black bodysuit was replaced by a white t-shirt, which I switched for a white tank top). Coincidentally, I had also worn this outfit to the office, too. While this is not a new outfit formula for me, I could see why having it documented in collage format was helpful in remembering it existed within my closet.
Sunday brunch
Now, this look is not one I would’ve put together myself. While I love oversized styling, I do tend to keep it more balanced than Fashivly suggested. Still, when I put it on (switching the mock turtleneck top for a bralette to manage the high temperatures), I felt comfortable and instantly put together reaffirming my love for outfits that feel like the equivalent of sweatpants. I also appreciated that, while I didn’t own many of the products in this collage, I was able to easily find replacements that adhered with the outfit’s vibe.
Work from home to office
I have to admit the “work from home” description in this outfit threw me off at first because I mostly work out of gym clothes or denim cut-offs. But, for days when my work schedule has me going from my apartment in New Jersey to events and previews in New York, this outfit is clearly a good option. While I don’t own a short-sleeve cropped jacket or white trousers, I was able to replicate the outfit using a navy cropped blazer with similar gold buttons and white wide leg jeans, adding a black bag with matching gold hardware. This is a clear example of how a service can Fashivly can help you see new options within your closet that don’t require a shopping spree.
Since doing my Fashivly try-on, I’ve found myself going back to the PDF Greer sent to brainstorm outfit ideas. Even for a fashion writer with a deep knowledge of trends and her own personal style, an outside perspective on outfit ideas is always helpful. For the amount of time many of us spend perusing Pinterest and TikTok for outfit inspiration, it might be worth investing in a service that does it for us instead. Greer and co. may be on to something.

Like what you see? How about some more R29 goodness, right here?
According to our anonymous shopping data, June was all about the three P's: Pride, papas, and price cuts.In honor of the month-long LGBTQIA+ celebration, we wrangled queer-owned brands killing it in their industries — in addition to a handful of products that affirmed R29 editors' queerness. Plus, we scavenged unique presents for our favorite father figures. And, all kinds of exclusive discount codes made their way onto our front page. TLDR: 'Twas a month of bountiful Refinery29-reader shopping carts.
But, what's an R29 bestsellers roundup without new-and-notable Lululemon finds, Taylor Swift shoutouts, and undeniably odd Amazon hacks? Yes, a pair of the famed activewear retailer's joggers made its debut on our list as well as Phoebe Bridgers' newest jewelry collaboration, and a nine-in-one multitool pen. To top it off, Our Place added a fantastical air-fryer to its inventory (that we, of course, tested out) and Kylie Jenner dropped brand-new lip balms (that we also reviewed). Scroll on for Refinery29 readers' top-bought products in June. Whether you score some dermatologist-approved sunscreen, the summer dress of the hour, or another must-have is all up to you.

Picking the perfect travel outfit is no easy task — hot airports, ice-cold planes, hectic TSA procedures, etc. Our affiliate editor, Marshall Bright, suggests Summersalt's supple matching sweatsuit for smooth travels. She writes, "I even wear [this set] traveling in the summer because you never know how cold a plane will be, and while I won’t lay out on a beach in the set later, it’s light enough that I don’t immediately want to rip it off my body when I land."

"(It also manages to separate the ta-ta's so you don't end up with the dreaded sports bra uni-boob situation.)" Just make sure to size up!
