Vintage Barbie Outfit Inspiration!

‘Come on Barbie let’s go party!’

Barbie made her fabulous debut back in 1959 at the New York Toy Fair, sporting her iconic black and white striped swimsuit and signature blond ponytail. As generations have passed, Barbie’s legacy continues to bring excitement and wonder to all that have that opportunity to play dress up with the beloved doll.

Vintage Barbie dolls and clothing hold a special place in the hearts of passionate collectors. These pieces are loved for their quality and representation of fashion throughout the decades. As styles have evolved over time, Barbie has also changed to reflect and tell the story of these trends, capturing life and history in her fashion!

There are three main elements to create your perfect vintage Barbie outfit.

Embrace Pink: As Barbie’s signature colour, pink plays a crucial role in everything Barbie! Have fun with incorporating different shades of pink into your outfit, whether you go head-to-toe in a pink ensemble or just gracefully add subtle touches through accessories or a statement piece!

Play with Silhouettes: Barbie is known for her iconic hourglass figure, so consider incorporation silhouettes that highlight your curves. Think fitted dresses, high-waisted skirts, and tailored pieces that accentuate your figure!

Experiment with feminine details: Barbie embraces femininity, so don’t shy away from ruffles, bow, laces, or floral prints. Look for pieces with feminine details that add a touch of whimsy and romance to your Barbie outfit.

If you are looking to channel your inner vintage Barbie, discover the magic of the ‘Dorchester Suite 17 Collar Dress’ in the sweetest colour of pink, or perhaps the ‘D’Amour L’Avenue Dress’ also in a dreamy soft pink! These beautiful designs could both be considered the perfect Barbie dress!

The beautiful Teagan Croft, an Australian-American actress best known for her role as Raven in the hit TV show Titans, wore her very own ‘Dorchester Suite 17 Collar Dress’’ to the highly anticipated premiere of Barbie. Seeing her was like seeing barbie jump right out of her box!

Or maybe you prefer a more relaxed Barbie look! Why not try the pink ‘Dorchester Suite 17 Crossover Sparkle T-Shirt (Pink)’, paired with a pair of vintage jeans – Kitten D’Amour denim comes in a range of styles and colours, so you are sure to find the perfect fit! And to complete the look, why not add a pair of stylish vintage heels such as the ‘Gatsby Shoe’ in a classic pink, or the ‘Vixen Shoe’ in a statement hot pink to really bring to life your inner Barbie!

Ultimately, whether you are a collector or simply someone who appreciates the nostalgia and style of Barbie, incorporating elements of vintage Barbie fashion into your own wardrobe can be a fun way to embrace self-expression and show case your individuality!
