Marlene Wilkerson brought Barbiecore to the red carpet at the 2023 ESPYs tonight in Los Angeles, joined by her husband Dallas Mavericks’ star Kyrie Irving.

Wilkerson was outfitted in a floor-sweeping hot pink gown in a bodycon style made of shiny fabric. The garment was sleeveless and featured a squared-off neckline and a free-flowing skirt with a side slit that ran up the length of the star’s leg, stopping at her hip.

Wilkerson wore a plethora of shiny gold jewelry which included hoops and chain bracelets. The content creator wore her dark brown tresses all slicked back into a rapunzel-esque ponytail that cascaded a long way down her back.

For footwear, Wilkerson wore a pair of gold strappy sandal heels. The high-shine heels likely featured rounded opened toes and thin straps that sat across the tops of her toes and around her ankles, fascinated in place with a buckle clasp. Most sandal heels also often include thin but walkable stiletto heels ranging from 3 to 4 inches, offering the wearer a conservative boost in height.
