As a seasoned gamer with a keen eye for pop culture trends and a soft spot for iconic characters like Barbie, I can’t help but weigh in on this fascinating debate. While Margot Robbie did indeed rock her Barbie-inspired looks during the promotional tour of the movie, it’s essential to acknowledge that Zendaya and Law Roach have been method dressing long before the Barbiecore trend became a global phenomenon.
Over the scorching summer, I couldn’t help but marvel at Margot Robbie slaying on red carpets and press events globally, rocking Barbiecore ensembles that bore a striking resemblance to outfits the iconic doll has donned in the past. However, let’s make it clear that it wasn’t just Margot who sparked the red carpet style trend!
Viral Tweet Gave Margot Robbie Credit For Red Carpet Method Dressing Trend
Approximately five million people on Twitter have viewed a tweet stating that “Barbie” and Margot Robbie initiated a trend during press tours where the main actors wear outfits themed after their film for each appearance. The post includes a picture of Margot Robbie adhering to the theme at the “Barbie” premiere. It’s hard to forget how stunningly well Margot Robbie carried off her “Barbie” red carpet appearances, such as this elegant light pink gown she wore for the London premiere.
In addition to the statement, there was also a picture of Zendaya sporting tennis attire during the Challengers press tour, as well as Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo portraying their Wicked characters at CinemaCon a few months ago. This tweet sparked a wider discussion about who deserves credit for the concept of method dressing.
But, Zendaya Fans Are Pointing Out How Both The Actress And Law Roach Should Get Credit
Prior to Margot Robbie’s Barbie movie costumes being carefully crafted beforehand, sparking fans to attend the movies in a style known as Barbiecore themselves, Zendaya and her stylist Law Roach have been embracing this trend on red carpets for quite some time. For instance, take a look at the outfit Zendaya wore for the Mexico City premiere of The Greatest Showman in 2017, an appearance that many fans have highlighted:
In the ’90s, marketing experts started a trend called “method dressing,” and one of the earliest examples was Geena Davis who wore a white dress with baseball-inspired stitching for the premiere of “A League Of Their Own“. More recently, fashion influencers like Law Roach and Zendaya have been reviving this trend, gaining significant attention years before Robbie. On the promotion tour for “The Greatest Showman” and in their roles in Spider-Man and Dune movies, they’ve made a strong mark with their innovative fashion choices.
In response to a Twitter post, Zendaya dyed her hair red for the “Far From Home” tour, mimicking Mary-Jane Watson’s hair color from the comics. She also posted a photo of her new look on social media with the caption “Face it, tiger,” which is what MJ famously says to Peter Parker in the comics. The user added that Zendaya effectively created this role and identity, saying “my sister built this house.”
Lately, during the promotion of her upcoming film in 2024 titled “Challengers,” Zendaya embraced a tennis-inspired style. She donned a green dress reminiscent of tennis courts to start the press tour and even accessorized with actual tennis balls on her heels while publicizing the movie in Italy. Take a look:
Blake Lively has jumped on board with the current fashion trend, first appearing at the premiere of Deadpool & Wolverine alongside Gigi Hadid’s yellow ensemble in a striking red dress, and then continuing to follow this trend for the It Ends With Us press events. The “red carpet coordinating” style trend has been making waves in the world of celebrity fashion, gaining popularity rapidly. We eagerly anticipate the next big viral fashion movement!
