While Robbie acts as Barbie in a number of the Vogue photos (there's cowgirl Barbie in Maison Margiela, politician Barbie in Chanel Haute Couture, and classic sunbathing Barbie in a polka-dot Norma Kamali suit), she also poses for plenty of pictures showing off her own wavy, highlighted blond hair and natural glow — and these looks feel less theatrical, but stylish all the same. During the interview, Robbie got candid about the famous doll and her history, as well as the over-sexualization of Barbie.

Margot Robbie has developed a close relationship with Chanel over the years, and they partnered again for the Golden Globes tonight.
