With the Barbie film crossing the billion dollar mark in earnings and poised to become the top film for 2023, the Barbiecore trend is more powerful than ever. A vibrant pink look is, without a doubt, the right way to go this summer. Seems like pink is the new black and it’s here to stay.
So what exactly is Barbiecore?
Inspired by the esthetics of the famous doll, created by Ruth Handler in 1959, Barbiecore is taking the fashion world by storm. It embraces hyper feminine, typically monochromatic looks, with loads of hot pink and a sparkle on top. The trend became the new hottest thing back in in June 2022, with the release of pictures of Margot Robbie, portraying the famous doll, on set in an all-hot pink Western outfit. By Mid August 2023 the hashtag #barbiecore has gained close to a billion views on TikTok, followed by #barbiecoreaesthetic with close to 50 million views.
How do I get that pink look?
To pull off the trend yourself, make sure to go all pink. While hot pink is the best choice, other shades of pink can definitely comprise the desired look as well. It’s all about that vibrant, sparkly attire.
Whether it be a throwback to the 1950s with a Polka dot pattern on a fit and flare dress, or a Y2K-inspired cropped top look, the Barbiecore trend is all about nostalgia. So put on your ultra high pumps and don’t forget to add accessories and lots of sparkle and glitter!
