Publisher's Synopsis
Producer and star Margot Robbie and her stylist Andrew Mukamal immersed themselves in some of Barbie's most iconic outfits and curated vintage pieces for the press tour that followed the record-breaking release of Greta Gerwig's acclaimed, award-winning Barbie movie. They then approached designers from Giorgio Armani to Donatella Versace to create looks that were inspired by the doll-size originals. Margot and Andrew worked with renowned fashion photographer Craig McDean to shoot her in the looks exactly as they were curated because the official Barbie press tour was cut short and many of these looks were not seen. Schiaparelli in Los Angeles, Vivienne Westwood in London, classic Chanel with matching Smooth out gear at the air terminal, and then some.
Going with McDean's lavish photography are unique Barbie dolls from the period, a gold mine of intriguing materials from Mattel's Barbie style chronicles, and the fashioners' portrayals and Polaroids from fittings, layered into suggestive collection by workmanship chief Fabien Nobleman. With text by Margot Robbie and Andrew Mukamal, as well as transcribed commitments from the originators behind the looks (from Olivier Rousteing and Michelle Ochs to Manolo Blahnik and Jeremy Scott), this exceptional book mixes the serious stylish of high design with the serious fun of Barbie world - the dolls, the set of experiences, and the style that have caught minds for quite some time.
