With the highly anticipated Barbie film finally in cinemas, there is no denying the iconic American doll's enduring influence on fashion, beauty, and popular culture. Launched in 1959, Barbie's style has remained consistently retro, polished, and a celebration of all things pink and sparkly. Barbiecore, the eponymous fashion trend that came to prominence last year, celebrates every facet of the world of Barbie: vintage silhouettes, playful patterns, and the full spectrum of colour from monochrome to neon brights. In short, anything goes as long as it is in the vibrant spirit of the doll.
With summer in full swing, there is no better time to embrace bold colour and playful silhouettes in your choice of eyewear. We have rounded up our top Barbiecore sunglasses for when you feel like getting dolled up.
