Margot Robbie headed down under for the Australian leg of the press circuit for her new film “Barbie” on Thursday, embracing the Barbiecore theme.
During a fan event, where she was joined by the movie’s director Greta Gerwig and her costars Issa Rae and America Ferrera, Robbie opted for a vintage Versace ensemble. Her outfit included a cropped pink cable-knit sweater, a metallic pink pleated skirt, purple socks and pastel blue shoes.
Later, she attended a “Barbie” celebration party with the rest of the film’s cast. For that occasion, she wore a vintage Versace shimmering pink cocktail dress with clear kitten-heel sandals with crystal trim. Her evening look was from Versace’s fall 1994 couture collection.
