Margot Robbie is a Barbie doll come to life in her latest look.

While attending a Sydney press event for her highly anticipated movie "Barbie," which comes out July 21, the actress wore a retro-glam look seemingly inspired by the first Barbie doll ever made.

Despite the fact that it's winter in Australia, the "Wolf of Wall Street" actress wore a black-and-white striped, strapless dress that is nearly identical to the striped bathing suit worn by the first Barbie doll released in 1959.

Robbie's stylist, Andrew Mukamal, shared a photo of the look on Instagram, which appears to include a custom Herve Leger minidress, with the caption, "'THE ORIGINAL' 1959." 

Robbie accessorized the look with a pair of white Jacques Marie Mage cat-eye sunglasses and black Manolo Blahnik heels that also replicated the doll's accessories. 

The actress also wears a look that resembles the first Barbie in the movie. In its first trailer, a giant-sized version of her character is seen wearing the same bathing suit and accessories.
