Think Pink: Barbie Edition

This pink Atelier Versace Fall 1994 dress was first worn by then Versace muse Brandi Quinones, and Claudia Schiffer during the Gianni Versace Haute Couture Paris Fashion Week after party back in October 1994. Gianni Versace created these ultra-sexy dresses for supers, superwomen, and now for Barbie herself.

The signature fine metal mesh produces a molten, almost wet-look effect, which produces the most glamorous ‘bling’ effect for which the designer was renowned for.

Those of us who have been praying for a Margot Robbie x Atelier Versace moment are living on cloud nine right now, because this is everything I hoped it would be, and more.

While Margot’s run of Christian Louboutin Me Dolly mules gave way to a PVC pair, I’m truly excited to see what the world premiere will bring if this is for the fan event.

Margot Robbie wore a custom polka-dot Valentino dress for the Los Angeles photocall of Barbie, at the Four Seasons Hotel. According to her stylist Andrew Mukamal, the outfit – even down to the yellow handbag – was a nod to a look worn by the original doll. Her white Manolo Blahnik heels and pearl Assael jewellery provided the finishing touches.
