Barbie movies are really famous for the dresses. So I thought I could review the fashion trends.
Barbie & the Nutcracker- Barbie of Swan Lake- the fairytale era:
The main color was pink, the color of the first Barbie outfit- Clara’s party outfit. Although it looked like a purple one, it had shades of pink, or was completely pink. It is because the dress was shown the dark. Pink has been a Barbie symbol. The females in this movie, are shown wearing gowns. Gowns were the most fashionable and most popular Barbie outfits at the time, between these three movies- and all of Rapunzel’s dresses are gowns.  After pink, purple and blue were introduced for Barbie’s roles. Blue has been used further. Moving on, there is Clara’s night dress. It has got transparent frills at some parts and so as her party outfit. Transparent decorations were really popular. There is her transformation gown. It is resplendent and has got a lot of glitter over the bodice and the skirt as well. It had also got transparent layers. Rapunzel’s pink dress is simple with gold borders at neck and puffed sleeves. Also, at the bodice end. Her second dress has got puffed sleeves at two places. We often see puffed sleeves here. There is also a trend for gems. We see puffed sleeves again. There was a trend for puffed sleeves and then tight sleeves. Her next and climax dress is very sparkly. Glittery dresses were a trend in Barbie movies. There is a transparent layer over her gown, again with gold borders. Her wedding dress is sleeveless- a new climax dress trend. (Climax dress means the main and most beautiful dress). Odette’s first dress is blue- as you’d expect. Water and swans are blue and white. Again, a transparent layer. Her top is also two layered. Her next dress is the pink dress. The arms are same as Rapunzel’s casual dress- puffed sleeves and the tight. The dresses also had patterns. A transparent layer again. Then comes the swan gown. Unconnected sleeves are again a trend like in Clara’s transformation dress. It has borders and is covered with feathers. Glitters are also hair. Most of Barbie dresses from this era symbolize something. Like Odette’s swan dress and gown. Her swan dress is a shortened version of her gown. It has fat fabric borders at the bodice. Strapless dresses were first introduced here. It is very sparkly.
That was the fairytale era.
