From the pink pumps to the new blonde dye jobs popping up on everyones’ insta feed, one thing is clear, it’s her world and we’re all just living in it. But you won’t hear us complaining! Barbiecore is here to stay for the foreseeable future and we’re here for it. So what does this mean for your big day? Here’s how to rock the trend while staying as timeless as everyone’s fave plastic fashion ICON herself.

 

The Bigger The Better

Barbie takes everything to the extreme. After all, when you’re less than a foot tall in heels, you have to get everyone’s attention somehow. So it’s no wonder that Barbie likes her dresses like she likes her hair…BIG. And sure a ballgown is a no-brainer, but think bigger. Big sleeves, big body moments like mermaid dresses to show off that impossible hourglass figure. And a train? You better believe that a Barbie girl is rocking the longest train you’ve ever seen. Want to go big but still want to be able to dance? Well, that’s what your reception dress is for!

Don’t Be Afraid To Sparkle

A true Barbie girl sparkles from the inside but a little (or a lot) of outside sparkle never hurt anyone, especially on your wedding day! Whether it’s sequins, beading, or full-on crystals, make sure to add a little bling to your dress.

Add A Splash Of Color

Our girl is all about the BWD (big white dress) when it comes to her wedding[s] (there have been a few). But, we all know that Barbie loves color! So, don’t be afraid to be a bit adventurous when you're trying on dresses. A pink dress is a must-try and while you’re at it, try on a floral number too, you might be surprised!

Accessorize Like A Pro

We all know that Barbie is the QUEEN of accessorizing. How will anyone truly understand the life path you’re channeling for the day if you’re not properly accessorized? Veil? Obvi. Jewelry? All of it–earrings, bracelet, necklace, rings. And this season’s hottest wedding accessory, a killer pair of shades that serves, “no pictures, please” vibes.

Have you had KENOUGH yet?

You can never have too much KENERGY, so if your groom is feeling up for it, why not venture away from the classic black tux and go with something a little more adventurous like this pink suit.
