How To Channel Big Barbie Energy If Pink Isn't Your Colour

Barbiecore is taking over. Embrace it in a fresh way. 
Margot Robbie BarbieMargot Robbie Barbie

With the highly anticipated release of Greta Gerwig’s Barbie movie starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling among many, many others, it feels as if the world’s turned pink. Barbiecore is everywhere, but how can you tap into the season’s most dominant trend if pink is not your colour?

First of all, do your colour analysis, the colour pink is a spectrum and there could be a shade to suit you from pastel rose to neon Malibu Barbie. Still not a pink person? No problem. Here are more subtle ways to nod to the icon that you can team with jeans. 

Barbie, 2023

‘Toy’ Sunglasses

A playful hint of the trend, sunnies that look like a doll’s accessory are having a moment with opaque frames and retro shapes particularly in white, but also lavender, pastel blue and green. A fun way to lift any outfit, even in the winter sun. Just make sure they’re not actually toys, with proper SPF.

Power Tailoring

Never without her brick of a mobile phone, early 90s business Barbie was clad in power skirt suits that showed her status as a busy working woman. Dust off your shoulder pads to channel her favourite tailored jackets.

Pearly Pieces

Synonymous with the iconic doll, chunky pearl necklaces, stud earrings and pearl embellishments on jackets, dresses and cardis can achieve polished and put-together Barbie vibes.

Baby Blues

Pink may not be your colour but Barbie is a lover of all the pastels. Why not nod to the trend with a palette of soft blues instead?

Slip-on Mules
