These 9 Ken Fashion Essentials Are The Key to Dressing Like Ken
No Mojo Dojo Casa House required.
After the recent release of the highly-anticipated Barbie movie, starring Margot Robbie as Barbie and Ryan Gosling as Ken, the world has been officially diagnosed with a strong case of Barbie fever. Bright pink has become summer's biggest color and Barbiecore has taken over the fashion industry. Robbie has only continued feeding the frenzy as she sported real Barbie doll-inspired looks during her press tour.
That said, while we may be living in Barbie's world — or better yet, Barbieland — with every Barbie also comes a Ken. Gosling shined in his role as Ken, ushering in a more niche aesthetic of Kencore. What are the Ken essentials to copying the Kencore look? It's actually much easier than it may appear. If you're looking for the perfect Ken outfit to match your "Kenergy," L'OFFICIEL has found the top 9 essentials on how to dress like Ken.
