BOARDROOM BARBIE

Margot Robbie Held on to a Surprising Part of the ‘Barbie’ Set

The LA headquarters of her production company has a splash of Barbie magic.

Actress Margot Robbie has given fans a sneak peek inside the stylish new Los Angeles headquarters of her production company, LuckyChap Entertainment, complete with a touch of Barbiecore. Robbie revealed she couldn’t resist holding on to some furniture from the Barbie movie set that was just too glam to let go. “The chairs are actually in the Barbie movie when you’re in the Mattel CEO office and all the Mattel guys are sitting around on the pink chairs,” the actress said in a behind-the-scenes tour filmed by Architectural Digest. With the help of London-based interior designer Scarlett Hessian of Studio Hessian, the $3,195 blush pink Saarinen armchairs were reupholstered with a rusty orange and white checkered print to match the mid-century modern-inspired workspace, which Robbie co-founded with husband Tom Ackerley and friend Josey McNamara. “We just had them reupholstered, because at the end of the movie—I mean, they were quite expensive, actually—I was like, ‘Wait, what’s going to happen to these chairs?’” Robbie said.
