Barbiecore is probably one of the liveliest and most colorful fashion trends to take over Hollywood. Celebrities like Priyanka Chopra, Brooke Shields, and Jessica Chastain have opted for fuchsia gowns and suits on the red carpet and front row at fashion shows. But, there’s one actress who’s been proudly repping the vibrant color way before the recent hype: Reese Witherspoon.
Back in 2001, the 47-year-old actress took on the iconic role of Elle Woods in Legally Blonde, sporting an unapologetically high-femme and hot pink wardrobe throughout the movie—from her frilly poolside attire to her badass courtroom wrap dress. Now, decades later, Reese is showing off all her Elle-worthy outfits over the years to a trending TikTok sound!

Reese Witherspoon Posts A Tribute To Her 'Barbiecore' Outfits Over The Years
Reese reminds us that she's the queen of the barbiecore trend with a TikTok she posted on Wednesday, February 22. The Big Little Lies actress posted an adorable montage of photos of herself wearing pink over the years including bright magenta pink gowns, light blush dresses, and bubblegum pink high heels.
"I tried to look for other colors, but nothing appeals like pink," a TikTok voiceover can be heard in the background. "Oh, you have that in pink? Oh yeah, I'll take the pink." She also posted the video to her Instagram account.
"It's a lifestyle y'all," the Hello Sunshine founder quipped in her caption. Some of the looks include her plunging hot pink Stella McCartney gown for the 2014 Met Gala, the neon pink Emilia Wickstead dress she wore to the Where the Crawdads Sing premiere (a movie she produced!), and her Legally Blonde fuchsia and black dress, and more.
Fan Comments
The TikTok video quickly racked up more than 53,000 likes and hundreds of comments, where many of fans playfully quoted the Legally Blonde and complimented Reese's barbiecore style over the years. "On Wednesdays we wear pink," one commenter wrote, while another referenced the cult classic, "'Whoever said orange was the new pink was seriously disturbed,' Love pink as your signature color!" while a third commenter pointed out the similarities between Reese and the character she played, "The real-life Elle Woods!"
"Queen of pink," someone else wrote in the comments with a crown emoji, while another commented, "Pink is a lifestyle," and someone else chimed in with, "Only you can rock pink like that!"
The third film in the Legally Blonde franchise was announced in 2018 and was initially scheduled for release in May 2022 but has been delayed until some time in 2023. Reese will be reprising her role as Elle, and her The Morning Show costar Mindy Kaling, 43, is writing the script for the movie.
"You know, it's one of those projects where it takes longer than other things because we just don't want to mess it up," Mindy told TODAY June 2022 of how the scriptwriting process is going. "The character is so beloved." We can't wait to see the barbiecore pink 'fits Reese has planned for the next Legally Blonde film!
