Plus 'Atonement,' 'Beauty and the Beast,' 'Little Women,' and more do too.
The Big Picture Barbie and last year’s The Batman are two very different blockbusters but share some surprising similarities. Both breathed new life into iconic figures deeply ingrained in pop culture — Barbie and Batman — but more specifically, both films share the same costume designer, two-time Oscar winner Jacqueline Durran.
The costume design in Barbie is an integral part of the film and did wonders for its promotion. It's been a major contributor to the viral "Barbiecore" trend, and when the first photos of Margot Robbie as Barbie in her hot pink Western costume hit the Internet in June 2022, it went viral on various social media platforms and reportedly inspired a 416% increase in online searches for pink clothing.
The low-cut green dress with its plunging open back and full, flowing skirt was the perfect choice for the steamy love scene between Cecilia and Robbie which also marks a dramatic turning point in the film's plot. High-quality replicas of the dress go for thousands of dollars, and it's already considered an iconic dress in cinema history like the red gown worn by Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman or Marilyn Monroe's hot pink dress in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.
