New Rizzoli Book Dissects Margot Robbie's Unseen 'Barbie' Press Tour Outfits
‘The World Tour’ is penned by Robbie and her stylist Andrew Mukamal, and photographed by Craig McDean.
Barbie actress/producer Margot Robbie and her stylist Andrew Mukamal are immortalizing “Barbiecore” with the upcoming Rizzoli photo book, Barbie: The World Tour.
The 160-page book will take a deep dive into Robbie’s outfits that were styled for the film’s press tour, which were studied by the actress and Mukamal. The iconic outfits and curated vintage pieces were brought to designers like Giorgio Armani and Donatella Versace, who then created looks inspired by the doll’s ensembles. However, many of these looks were not shown in public due to the press tour getting cut short, so Robbie and Mukamal teamed up with renowned fashion photographer Craig McDean to shoot the actress in the ensembles the way they were meant to be seen.
Along with McDean’s photos, The World Tour will feature “original Barbie dolls from the period, a treasure trove of rare materials from Mattel’s Barbie fashion archives, and the designers’ sketches and Polaroids from fittings, layered into evocative collage by art director Fabien Baron.” Robbie and Mukamal serve as the authors of the book, while the likes of Olivier Rousteing, Michelle Ochs, Manolo Blahnik and Jeremy Scott provide handwritten contributions, and a foreword by Edward Enninful, an introduction by Vogue China editor-in-chief Margaret Zhang and an afterword by Barbie director Greta Gerwig.
Barbie: The World Tour releases March 19, and is available for pre-order now via Rizzoli for a retail price of $55 USD.
