Margot Robbie’s Best Red Carpet Looks, From Soap Star to Barbie Girl

Robbie got down to business for the 2024 Producers Guild Awards, wearing a black and white tuxedo dress from Balmain.

Robbie’s SAG Awards Schiaparelli confection arrived with quite the backstory—the dress was part of a “lost” couture collection that was never produced due to COVID-19. Designer Daniel Roseberry specifically crafted this black and pink number for Robbie, who was nominated at the event for her role in Barbie.

The Aussie was a vision for the 2024 BAFTA Awards in this striking, two-toned Armani Privé column gown from that she paired with matching opera gloves.
