Among the many meme-able scenes pulled from the Barbie trailer, perhaps the most memorable is Margot Robbie as the titular character stepping out of her pink, rhinestoned, fur-finished sandals while maintaining the doll s perma-arched feet. As a result, Robbie has been wearing almost exclusively Manolo Blahnik heels on her method dressing-heavy press tour promoting the movie. Today in London, Robbie switched things up with a pair of Vivienne Westwood platforms finished in pony hair and matched to her briefcase bag. 

While Robbie s strong-shouldered brocade skirt set was something to behold (The floral embroidery! Metallic piping! Pink-laced grommets!) her coordinated accessories demanded the bulk of our attention. The sandal s bubblegum pink patent leather teamed with the ponyhair to create something that nodded to the fluffy slide in the trailer, but heftier and edgier. A pearl anklet, replete with rhinestone Westwood logo, rounded out the somewhat kitschy additions. The overall effect was cool yet camp—an ideal outfit for an unending parade of doll-inspired dress-up.
