Barbiecore is in full force this summer!

Look around and it’s everywhere. On red (or rather pink) carpets, on the streets and definitely on social media. Since last year, the push for hot-pink colour palettes, ultra-feminine silhouettes and Barbie-branded accessories has fuelled a style trend that honours the 1950s Mattel doll with a playful, nostalgic twist.

And that trend has received resounding endorsement by fashion powerhouses like Valentino, whose 2022 autumn/winter show was a fuchsia explosion, while Chanel too embraced the style in its cruise collection for 2023/24, cementing the aesthetic’s place in the haute couture world.

Barbiecore was further accentuated as a wardrobe essential when celebrities from Zendaya to Gemma Chan strutted out in head-to-toe pinkness. The icing on the cake was when Barbie, the anticipated film directed by Greta Gerwig, finally released and excited fans across the globe attended opening weekend wearing ensembles inspired by the iconic toy.

With Barbiecore in full swing, we turn our attention to the Asian celebrities who are truly owning this fabulous style this year.
