“Barbie” star Margot Robbie covers the July 8, 2023 issue of M Le Magazine du Monde [IG], lensed by Mikael Jansson [IG]. Stylist Malina Joseph Gilchrist takes a welcome French approach to the fashion story, delivering a sober, intellectual vision of the star out and about in a sea of pink and frothy hair.

The story chooses from Chanel on the cover and inside for Robbie, an ambassador since 2018, Courreges, Prada, The Row and more. Le Monde delights in slugging a punch in a fashion story that “has fun dynamiting the figure of the woman-object”, in their own words./ Hair by Bryce Scarlett; makeup by Pati Dubroff

The actor stars in "Barbie", which hits theaters in America on July 21. “Barbie” has a world premiere today, Sunday July 9, in Los Angeles and opened in Mexico City on Thursday.

‘Barbie’: First Reactions From the Premiere Hollywood Reporter

Directed by Greta Gerwig, who co-signed the screenplay with her husband Noah Baumbach, this “potential blockbuster” in the words of wise media, has a purpose that retells the Barbie story in “Woke Barbie” mode.

Given the global box office bust of “The Little Mermaid”, all entertainment media execs are holding their breath on “Barbie”. Two flops in a row over “woke” interpretations of major movie icons will probably close the door on more any time soon.

Additionally, “Barbie” will open in America against “Oppenheimer”, a movie that AOC awaits as much as “Barbie”. So “Barbie” may need a longer tail to build its box office receipts in the U.S. in July-August. “Oppenheimer” is hoping for a $40 million weekend, which would be impressive for a movie dedicated to the development of the atomic bomb.

If you’ve watched the “Barbie” trailer, you know that one of the most famous females in the world has an awakening. She and Ken bust out into the real world, blasting away “the clichés of femininity and its set of required accessories, without sparing the caricatural virility of a Ken interpreted here by Ryan Gosling” writes M Le Monde IG.

As for Ken, depending on how well “Barbie” does, he may have his own spinoff coming. A Ken spin-off movie with Ryan Gosling attached to star as Ken MAY be in the works at Warner Bros.
