Colin Farrell and Margot Robbie at the photocall for 'A Big Bold Beautiful Journey.'.

Nine months after welcoming her first child with husband Tom Ackerley, Margot Robbie made a dazzling return to the spotlight at a Los Angeles photocall for her upcoming romantic fantasy film, A Big Bold Beautiful Journey—her first role since Barbie.

The actress turned heads in a sculptural little black dress by Stella McCartney (Resort 2026), reimagining the classic micro-LBD with a modern twist. 

Featuring a corset bustier with exposed boning, sheer midriff panels that transition into an opaque mini skirt, and subtle padded hips that accentuated her hourglass figure—all gave the look architectural drama with ’80s flair.

Styled by Andrew Mukamal—her collaborator since the Barbie press tour—Robbie paired the bold dress with minimalist accessories. Strappy black heels, sleek straight hair, and a fresh peachy glow completed her refined comeback aesthetic.

At the photocall, Robbie posed alongside co-star Colin Farrell and director Kogonada as they introduced the film, set to hit theaters on September 19. Robbie shared this was one of the most magical experiences of her life, and her return felt surprisingly seamless despite the long hiatus.
