We may have Margot Robbie to thank for the invention of Barbiecore, but in all seriousness, Paris Hilton was the OG Barbie since day dot. The heiress hosted the Klarna & Paris Hilton House of Y2K launch party in Los Angeles on Thursday evening and was joined by a VIP guestlist for the occasion.
The 42-year-old dazzled in a custom Nicole & Felecia mini dress inspired by the iconic Julien Macdonald chainmail dress she wore on her 21st birthday, which was also one of the decade-defining looks displayed at the pop-up. The disco-ready garment featured an ultra mini silhouette, a structured cowl neck, an on-trend neck strap and a body-cinching fit.

Perfecting her Barbie babe aesthetic, the new mother wore her blonde hair down in a slick straightened style, allowing her sharp fringe to frame her face. She accessorised with a glitter-clad clutch bag, some coordinating fingerless gloves and Y2K sunglasses, in-keeping with the theme of the night. A super beautified makeup look enhanced her plastic-fantastic-themed attire.
Attendees even got Y2K-inspired makeup by MUA Nick Metos inspired by Paris' beauty blend and their personal items blinged out with Bling’d Up.
