Barbie

Day-to-Night Barbie, 1985 The power-dressing doll of the 1980s. Her soft pink suit came with a hat, briefcase and calculator, and it transformed into a shirred skirt evening look, so one outfit took her from the office to a party. Mattel presents her as a celebration of that era's workplace revolution for women, and she is the clearest case of Barbie dressing like real working women of her moment. Margot Robbie's pink Atelier Versace skirt suit at the 2023 film's Seoul premiere, followed by a sparkling tulle dress for the evening change, was a direct homage.
