a worldwide shortage of paint in that color! This just goes to show the true essence of the entire aesthetic, embracing the incredibly vibrant hues brought to us by the franchise.
Although Barbiecore welcomes all vibrant and blindingly popping hues of color, at its heart the entire fashion trend is centered on the signature pink color featured in Barbie.
