Eugenie Bouchard channels Barbie-inspired glamour on the 2023 ESPY awards red carpet

Eugenie Bouchard cut a glamorous figure on the red carpet at the 2023 ESPY awards.

The annual Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly (ESPY) awards seek to honor outstanding individual and team athletic accomplishments and other sports-related performances over the course of a calendar year. The 2023 edition of the awards were held on July 12 at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.

Bouchard was in attendance at the event. She dazzled the red carpet in a glittery pink cocktail dress, paired with a matching purse. Her choice of silver shoes and bracelets perfectly complemented her ensemble. She rounded out her look with beachy blond waves and fresh-faced makeup.

"Barbie at the ESPYs," Eugenie Bouchard captioned the post on Instagram.

The Canadian's Barbie-inspired outfit coincides perfectly with the release of Greta Gerwig's highly anticipated 'Barbie' movie, starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling. The film held its world premiere in Los Angeles on July 9 and was premiered in London on July 13. It arrives in theatres worldwide on July 21.

The 2023 ESPY awards saw NFL superstar Patrick Mahomes take home the award for Best Athlete, Men's Sports. His championship-winning team, Kansas City Chiefs nabbed the Best Team award.

Meanwhile, two-time Olympic gold medalist skier Mikaela Shiffrin beat out Iga Swiatek for the Best Athlete, Women's Sports award. Novak Djokovic claimed the award for Best Tennis Player over Swiatek, Aryna Sabalenka and Carlos Alcaraz.
