Victorian, but restless: Margot Robbie’s new style
The Barbie era is overMargot Robbie turns the page: new character, new imagery, same millimetric precision in telling a film even through her looks. In the press tour of Wuthering Heights, the common thread is not the historical quote as an end in itself, but an emotional rereading of the nineteenth century style, designed to translate the complexity of the character into clothes. Wide sleeves, square necklines, dark velvets and constricted silhouettes they speak of repressed desire, power and guilt. It is evident from the first appearances: the clothes seem to have come out of a Tudor portrait or a moorland, but reinterpreted with a modern and conscious sensuality. There is no shortage of rReferences to Anne Boleynto the codes of the English court and the theatricality of the female body, even if they are reinterpreted with a “dirty”, unstable Victorian aesthetic, where the beauty it is never reassuring but always full of ambiguity.

If in Barbie the transformation went through one almost literal fidelity to the characterhere Margot Robbie chooses a freer and more modern reinterpretation of the Victorian theme: and it is precisely this gap that makes her looks immediately trendy.
