Margot Robbie as Solo in the Spotlight Barbie

Margot Robbie’s Barbie press tour-style streak continues. For the world premiere of Barbie at Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall in Los Angeles on Sunday, July 9, the Oscar nominee wore her best human-version of an iconic Barbie doll look to date. 

The 33-year-old hit the red carpet in a custom Schiaparelli dress that is an exact replica of “Solo in the Spotlight” Barbie‘s look from 1960.

Robbie’s strapless bustier dress is covered in black sequins and fits close to the body. At the hem, which falls just above the ankles, a black tulle tutu piece flares out, creating a mermaid silhouette. A single red rose appears in the tulle. Just like “Solo in the Spotlight” Barbie, Robbie wore black opera gloves that extend to her elbows, a silver diamond choker necklace, black peep-toe heels, and a pink handkerchief. She wore her hair in an updo similar to her inspiration—a glamorous high ponytail that was perfectly curled, with a face-framing piece swept to one side. For makeup, Robbie opted for a bold red lip.
