We’ve got the most camp character posters, and an iconic trailer dripped in pink

Line up everyone, Barbie is bringing back the joy of youth in theatres on 21 July. The new Barbie trailer and teaser photos have been giving everyone LIFE! It’s been so long since we got a film that was so fun, camp and colourful, and it is exactly the boost we needed to get through the year. Will we be streaming all the old animated films to get us pumped and ready for July? Absolutely — and don’t be afraid to do the same DIVAs.
Check out the trailer here if you haven’t already:
Now let’s have a look at how queer Twitter has been reacting…

Imagining the red carpet looks
It better be pink. It better be fun. It better sparkle. It better be referential. https://t.co/DUzii03FNi pic.twitter.com/9a2Fa8HKIU

Personally, I am already planning what outfit I’ll be wearing to go see the film when it’s out. Although I’m non-binary, I’m a Barbie girl first and foremost.
