Margot Robbie's custom Schiaparelli dress

Margot Robbie wore a Schiaparelli Haute Couture for the highly-anticipated Barbie movie premiere. Margot's black dress was made to look like the 'Solo in the Spotlight' doll from 1960, designed by Daniel Roseberry - the creative director of Schiaparelli. It was a perfect homage featuring a hyperreal sculpted shape of the bodice, the chiffon scarf, the gloves, and even the heels. She elevated the look by styling her blonde tresses in a sleek hairdo inspired by the doll.

How the dress was made?

Margot Robbie's strapless dress inspired by the original 1960 'Solo in the Spotlight' Barbie features a midi-length silhouette, a bustier bodice, gleaming black sequin embellishments, and a black tulle tiered hem topped by a red embroidered and hand-painted rose adornment.

Margot completed her look with a pale pink tulle handkerchief, black Opera gloves, and peep-toe high-heel Manolo Blahnik mules. Lastly, Margot chose Lorraine Schwartz's sparkling diamond stud earrings and layered necklaces for the accessories.
