It’s hard to believe that this time a year ago, pink was fashion’s favorite color. It was widely available in a robust spectrum, from the dusty rose of millennial pink to the saturated fuchsia of Valentino’s Pink PP. Barbiecore was going strong; with the film starring Margot Robbie as the beloved fashion doll with a signature hot-pink hue expected to be a blockbuster the following summer, trend forecasters at the Pantone Color Institute anointed a bright pinkish- purple called Viva Magenta the 2023 Color of the Year. Fast-forward to the Barbie world premiere in July, when Robbie posed for pictures on a pink carpet, in front of a pink Corvette convertible, but wearing a black custom Schiaparelli Haute Couture bustier dress that was fully embroidered with sequins and finished with layers of tulle. The only nod to pink in Robbie’s look was the mousseline scarf she carried in her right hand. This Barbie wears black. And she’s not alone.
