It’s been just over a week since the Barbie movie officially hit cinemas everywhere, and we don’t know about you, but we’re not quite ready to hang up our pink outfits just yet. The movie has already spawned an entire trend of its own with Barbiecore infiltrating our wardrobes, homes and makeup bags over the last few months, and we can’t get enough of the countless outfits that it's already inspired.

Margot Robbie perfectly embodies the beloved titular doll in Greta Gerwig's movie. But the actress and executive producer went one step further during the film's promotional tour this summer, dressing in a new, Barbie-inspired look for each red carpet event!Robbie and her stylist, Andrew Mukamal, collaborated on each iconic look, adding a thrilling new layer to the movie for lifelong fans of the legendary doll and her enviable fashions.There was this classic black custom Schiaparelli Haute Couture gown for 's Los Angeles premiere, which paid homage to «Solo in the Spotlight» Barbie from 1960 — even down to the red rose accent on the skirt, opera gloves and sheer handkerchief.For the European premiere in London, the pair paid tribute to iconic British designer Vivienne Westwood, with a couture gown modeled after 1990's «Enchanted Evening» Barbie.

Greta Gerwig’s bubblegum fever dream “Barbie” gave clever nod to ill-fated Barbie Land dolls — such as pregnant Midge, Ken’s BFF Allan, Tanner the pooping pup and Growing Up Skipper, to name a few.“I think I got most of them in there,” Gerwig, 39, told IndieWire of brushing off the decades of dust on the misfit toys for the new summer flick.“There’s like a million of them.”Among the many popular iterations of Barbie over the last 64 years, these unfortunate few fell flat.The “weird,” as “Barbie” narrator Helen Mirren says, concept of the pregnant figurine was born into Mattel lore in 2002.Midge — whose full name is Margaret Hadley Sherwood in the Barbieverse — was originally billed as Barbie’s best friend, but was meant to be the “ugly sidekick” to Barbie’s “dream girl” persona, M.G. Lord, the author of “Forever Barbie: The Unauthorized Biography of a Real Doll,” told Buzzfeed News.When Midge, played by Emerald Fennell in the summer blockbuster, was launched in 1963, the redhead could fit in all of her bestie’s outfits.But that ended when she was re-released with her magnetic bump that revealed an infant inside — nevermind the anatomical logistics.

Barbie fans love more about the hottest movie of the year – aside from the pink, the cast, the vibes, and the pink – than spotting its hidden references and subtle Easter eggs sprinkled throughout.Fans have been poring over every pink detail of the highly-anticipated Greta Gerwig flick since the first trailer dropped, going into a hot pink frenzy with every “genius” tid bit uncovered.But since the film’s record-breaking release weekend, once Barbies and Kens had a chance to take in Barbieland’s full pastel glory, theories are swirling about the more subtle pop culture nods.One particular theory speculates that the film features a subtle cameo by Barbie’s biggest rival: the Bratz dolls.Fans have taken to social media to unpack their theory, honing in on the scene where Barbie (Margot Robbie) travels to the real world and goes to a high school while searching for the girl she believes is responsible for her existential crisis.At the school, she comes across a teenager named Sasha (Ariana Greenblatt) and her three friends who give the cowgirl-dressed Barbie a brutal reality check about her problematic history in the real world.“We haven’t played with Barbie since we were, like, five years old,” Sasha tells Barbie.“You’ve been making women feel bad about themselves since you were invented.”One TikTok user, Ivan Mars, posted a video saying it took him three trips to the cinema to realize the group of teens bear an eerie resemblance to the original four Bratz dolls named Yasmin, Sasha, Cloe, and Jade.And though the three friends – played by McKenna Roberts, Sasha Milstein, and Brylee Hsu – being unnamed “Junior High Friend” characters, their apparent ringleader Sasha shares not only a name, but a nickname with one of Barbie’s

To which my response is: Why? I thought the whole point of feminism is that women wanted equality with men, not a complete reversal of the perceived unequal social power structure.“I don’t know any woman, other than perhaps US female soccer superstar Megan Rapinoe, who wants a world where women dominate absolutely everything – and men are reduced to dim-witted doormats barely capable of changing a light bulb.”His comments drew criticism on Twitter with one user writing: “Lol.
