The drown sex videospromotional tour for Greta Gerwig's Barbie,easily the most anticipated film of the year, has been nothing short of mania. From eponymous lead Margot Robbie's perfectly-curated event wardrobe to Barbie's Malibu Dreamhouse turned Airbnb to a hot pink Xbox collaboration, we've been living in Barbie world for months now. What was once more of a trend, #Barbiecore has become a fully-fledged lifestyle, especially as the film's release date finally approaches.
Ahead of the European premiere of the film on Wednesday, London was been seriously Barbiefied, too. Fans queued for hours outside the city's Cineworld in Leicester Square, where the main cast including Robbie, Ryan Gosling, America Ferrera, Issa Rae, and Simu Liu walked the pink carpet.
And for those who didn't make it to the premiere, London has enough Barbie-esque promos to satiate fans, from luminous Barbie buses to a bright pink TARDIS landing near Tower Bridge. Here's some of the ways in which London is welcoming Barbie.
