Margot Robbie Wears the Miniest Mini Dress—Because When in Italy
From London to Ibiza, Margot Robbie has been enjoying her jaunts across the pond and embracing vacation style. After dabbling in the beach goth aesthetic on a recent trip to the Balearics, she’s opted for something more Barbie-like on a romantic stay in Naples.
The actor and producer was photographed on the balcony of the Grand Hotel Parker’s, the elegant and oldest hotel in the Italian city, enjoying the sun and swigging acqua frizzante. She wore a strapless mini dress with a colorful, embroidered elephant print and flat cream sandals. Robbie wore her long blonde hair with a slight wave, and in a middle part. She was joined by her husband Tom Ackerley.
The mini dress was a go-to silhouette for Robbie during the Barbie press tour, with looks that included a fiery a red custom Dilara Fındıkoğlu dress when promoting the film in London, and a custom-made hot pink and white halter-neck minidress by Valentino with a midriff cut-out that directly referenced supermodel Karen Mulder, who was dubbed the “real-life Barbie” in her heyday. The elevated mini dress is a chill, one-and-done staple for the summer, with more than one way to go about it to fit it into your own personal style lexicon: think elegant shift dresses, easy linens, lacy slips, and more sporty numbers.
Across the summer so far, Robbie’s vacation wardrobe has comprised of easy, breezy, chic ensembles: A semi-sheer maxi skirt, billowing palazzo pants, extra-large raffia beach bags, and black Alaïa mesh flats.

Rumors have been swirling that Robbie is tipped as the frontrunner for the leading role in the forthcoming reboot of the iconic ’90s movie Basic Instinct, which originally starred Sharon Stone—a film with its own very famous mini dress moment… The original costumes were by veteran Hollywood costume designer Ellen Mirojnick (of Fatal Attraction, Showgirls, and Bridgerton), which revelled in luxurious fabrics, sensual tailoring, and icy, Hitchcockian color palettes. Imagine the Margot Robbie press tour wardrobe for that.
