THE Oscar for best costume design is usually awarded to the makers not the viewers of a film, but the Academy Awards this year might not have to look further than EC1.

Keeping in trend with cinemagoers around the world, fans arrived at Angel’s Vue cinema wearing their pinkest and brightest garments to watch the new Barbie film.

One fan really embraced his cowboy alter-ego, pairing his pink corduroy trousers with a chic pair of white boots, left.

Reporting its biggest turnout in four years, Vue had the second biggest weekend in its history.

With a marketing campaign budget in excess of $150 million, it’s been difficult to ignore Hollywood’s latest blockbuster hit.

Barbie grossed an estimated £18.5 million at the UK and Ireland box office in its opening weekend, beating off competition from Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer.
