Barbie Ferreira On Balletcore and Collaborating on Euphoria’s Costume Design

Hi Vogue, this is Barbie Ferreira.

I m gonna show you some looks that I wear in a week.

We got date night, we got on set, we got it all.

Let s tune in.

[chill music]

Okay, so this is my set look.

A little Fendi two piece, Simon Miller bubble clog,

and a little Margiela bag that I wear almost every day.

A little Marc Jacobs clip.

This is, of course, me being fancy, fancy on set.

Not every day do I wear something as cute as this.

But you know, we give it a little,

a little moment for you guys.

Heidi Bivens is the costume designer of Euphoria,

a living legend.

She s iconic.

So a lot of my favorite designers

and her favorite designers that we really love,

we ll just kind of get clothes that are more Kat-like,

but usually it s a very collaborative process.

I ve literally worn things on the show

that were from my closet,

and a lot of it is modeled after what I wear,

of course, within the color palette

and within the character.

Okay, I m not gonna lie.

Heidi, I m sorry, I did take the Vivienne Westwood corset.

I did take it.

She hasn t asked for it back, but it is in my house.

You will see it later in the season.

[light music]

Onto the next.

So this is my red carpet fancy look,

if I m trying to dress for press.

When I m thinking about my red carpet looks,

I first go on Vogue Runway and I go through all the shows.

I pick things that I really like

and then I ll probably head over to Pinterest

or to one of my saved albums,

and I ll get some of my favorite inspirations

that I ve been kinda saving,

and I try to build the hair and makeup look to it.

I think the scariest moment on a red carpet

was about 20 seconds before I walked out into the Met Gala.

A string of pearls just fell on the ground

and we all were like [Barbie gasps]

and I really thought my whole dress was gonna unravel.

I could ve sworn, I was like, That s it.

Pearls everywhere.

I just left pearls all over the entryway.

It was a little bit dramatic and glamorous, I will say.

Thankfully I did not unravel.

I think I have a lot of fashion icons.

I think Drew Barrymore, Rose McGowan,

kinda the 90s darlings, I always go to.

A little Dita Von Teese sometimes, Winona Ryder.

I go for the girlies that I look up to,

and I ll usually just have a ton of saved photos.

It really just depends on the vibe.

I do not have a constant thing I look for in a red carpet,

and that s my business, but most of the time,

if it s a very structured dress,

I like to make sure the waist is cinched,

so that s usually a little tailoring that needs to happen.

[light music]

This is my errands look.

This is a day to day, cute little moment in LA.

You know what I mean?

Just a little something.

This top is Mialle, these pants are Tyler McGillivary

and these earrings are Mudd Pearl.

Shout out Mudd Pearl.

And the shoes are Margielas.

I love me a little Tabi, a little Mary Jane.

I like to wear pearls a lot,

whether it be in my hair, earrings,

my preferred way, necklace,

so let s go put on some Mudd Pearl.

This is the new one.

Oh my God, I m so excited.

A little colorful pearl.

There we go.

This is cute!

Go off, Mary.

I love a corset.

I ve always loved a corset.

I used to thrift a lot of them

and I used to pair them with sweatpants.

That was just my thing.

And now I wear them with real pants.

[Barbie laughs]

Try to make it a little cute, but corsets are very fun.

I like to have the boobies up,

I like to have the waist in, you know what I mean?

Who doesn t?

And I don t mind a little compression.

Every day looks pretty much consist of,

recently a little ballet-core.

I like some silky bows.

I like wearing little socks too, and little ballet flats.

I ve gotten a lot of those recently.

Small shirt, big pants, great combo because pants,

you kinda wanna feel comfy,

but then you can have a little crop at the top.

Give a little body.

But you don t have to do that the whole time, so it s great.

This look makes me feel

like I m in my Sex and the City era,

which is what I ve been going for.

I feel cute.

[Barbie laughs]

It s comfortable but still like I m in Sex and the City.

It s realism but is it?

It s a little elevated.

[light music]

So this is my picnic look.

It s a little botanical garden look.

If I was going to a zoo, I would wear this.

If I was going to a farmer s market, I would wear this.

I love to play with color.

I love a jewel tone and I also love pastel.

This is like, if I m going to a picnic,

I m gonna make it very literal.

I m wearing flowers on my dress

and in my hair and all that stuff.

I like to play around with a lot of my looks, so.

[light music]

So this is my date night look.

We have a Collina Strada top, we have a Vince skirt

and some By Far shoes.

We have a double earring from Margiela.

I need a bag, a little cute bag for date night.

Let s go check the closet.

Okay, okay.

I m ready.

My last first date, I wore some bicycle shorts.

It was a Gotye vintage top

and I had a bathing suit bra underneath

that was really cute.

A little silk scarf around my neck.

I had a little bob,

and I forgot what I was wearing for shoes,

but I think it was these little clanky little sandals too.

We went and saw a movie at Cinespia

and then the rest is history.

This is kinda giving Renaissance fair

but in a cute way, I assume.

I hope.

[Barbie laughs]

Let me know down in the comments below.

I m sure you will anyway.

[light music]

So this is a look for a meeting.

It s very much giving the Nanny, Fran Drescher.

It s also kind of bratty schoolgirl look.

I m a costume kind of girl,

so if I m feeling a little young professional,

maybe I ll wear a little blazer.

If I m feeling cute

and kind of New York City private school,

that s what I ll serve.

So I think tights are amazing,

especially if it s a little chilly, you know what I mean?

So these are really amazing too.

I like a little monogram tight.

I like showing a little skin.

I ve always liked a little crop top

or anything that has a little cutout or something.

I love a glossy red lip with the silk bow.

It just, it s kind of Wednesday Addams grown up vibe.

[light music]

This is a going out look, a concert look,

a karaoke look, dare I say.

I love a turtleneck, I love a long sleeve

and I love a slinky little bodycon moment,

and I love a boot that disappears into the dress

so I don t have to shave my legs.

Not that I have to, but you know?

When I have friends over, I will put on a little something,

but then I ll slip into something a little bit more,

boom, bam, as Emerald would say, to go out.

The bag, how could we forget a bag?

Okay, let me go get my Bottega bag.

[audience claps]

You know what, I ll hold it like this.

I have my Bottega bag.

Bottega is youthful.

It is the moment.

I never ask my friends what they re wearing

because all my friends overdress

and that s because we re all from New York

who now live in LA.

We always overdress, come to think of it,

and I don t ever ask because I just know.

[light music]

Wow, that was a journey.

Thank you for taking a tour of my closet

and I hope you enjoyed.

A karaoke look, dare I say.

I love a little Nicki Minaj, whatever they have available.

Chun Li.

We love Super Bass, if we go there.

Any Lana song that s available as well.

That ll be totally okay with me.

Oh my God, what else did we sing?

Cassie, Me and U, a banger.

I also, sometimes, my little party trick,

doing Barbie Girl, cause classic, you know what I mean?
