Getting to the Barbie-core: The Barbie Dreamhouse Phenomenon

July 21, 2023 By Annie Meadows

In a world that often seems overwhelmed by seriousness and complexity, a refreshing new trend has emerged, bringing joy and vibrancy back into our lives. Say hello to “Barbiecore,” a design trend that embraces the iconic style of the Barbie doll and infuses it into interiors and fashion. Inspired by the 60-year-old fashion doll, Barbiecore is a celebration of all things pink, playful, and glamorous. You may or may not know that I am a huge pink enthusiast (I mean, have you seen my logo?), therefore I’ve had a lot of fun exploring the essence of Barbiecore and taking in all of the neat photos.

All Things Pink

A dominant aspect of Barbiecore is, undeniably, the color pink. From soft blush to bold fuchsia, pink reigns supreme in this trend. Designers and enthusiasts have found creative ways to incorporate pink into various elements of interiors, fashion, and even art. The result is a delightful explosion of femininity and charm that can instantly brighten any space.

Mixing Modern and Vintage

One of the most exciting aspects of the Barbiecore trend is its versatility. By blending modern elements with vintage finds, designers can create spaces that are both timeless and on-trend. This trend offers a perfect opportunity to hunt for unique vintage pieces that also complement a modern setting, adding character and charm to any space.

Embracing Individuality

Barbiecore is all about self-expression and celebrating individuality. It’s a reminder that design should be a reflection of our unique personalities, setting itself apart from conventional trends. Whether you prefer minimalistic Barbiecore or a full-out pink extravaganza, this trend encourages you to be true to yourself and your design vision.
