We’re no strangers to a trending aesthetic here at Who What Wear, as we’ve covered them all, from the cottagecore look of 2020 to the most recent love of coastal grandmas everywhere. While many of us tie ourselves to one specific aesthetic, it’s always fun to experiment and take parts of different looks and incorporate them into our own personal style. The most recent aesthetic taking over the internet? Barbiecore. Yes, the dolls you played with as a child are leading the sartorial charge right now. Talk about a true nostalgic revival.
With all the attention Greta Gerwig’s upcoming Barbie movie has been getting, it’s no surprise the pink-dominated trend is on everyone’s mind right now. Have you seen the latest images of Ryan Gosling and Margot Robbie on set? It’s hard for something like that not to go viral. The movie has put the Barbie look on the map, and with designers such as Valentino and Balenciaga incorporating the aesthetic into their collections, the trend is bound to reach the masses. Almost the entirety of Valentinos F/W 22 collection was a striking shade of fuchsia, and Kim Kardashian has been championing Balenciaga’s pinkest products. Needless to say, Barbie’s asked us if we all want to go for a ride, and the fashion world is jumping in.
Trust us—the trend isn’t just for runway models and celebrities. We rounded up 24 items that’ll prove the look is wearable. Just keep scrolling.
Anne Hathaway is our IRL fashion Barbie. On her way to the latest Valentino show, Hathaway made a strong case for shocking pink, glitter, and platforms.
While we won’t be dressing this costume-like, we just had to include this on-set moment from the upcoming Barbie movie. The casting couldn’t be any better.
While Kardashian used to be an all-neutrals type of girl, she’s not one to shy away from color anymore—certainly not pink.
As we said, Valentino is truly making a case for bright pink, and we can’t get enough of it. Lizzo looks stunning in her coordinating ensemble.
Don’t stop at just shocking pink—go for all the shades.
Even if you’re not ready to embrace the trend fully, a touch of pink won’t hurt. Plus, it adds a fun pop to any look.

Even if you don’t find this look “wearable,” just break it down. If you aren’t going to a runway show like Aimee was, we’d suggest switching the pink dress with a black number and then sticking to the colorful accessories.
