Kenergy is about mixing classic, modern, and playful looks for any occasion with the most important factor: being yourself
Award-winning actor Ryan Gosling is known for his impeccable style, both on and off screen. His role as Ken in the Barbie movie has taken his fashion game to a new level as he showcases the look and vibe of the iconic doll. Ken’s style is a mix of classic, modern, and playful with a touch of pink and pastel. He can pull off any outfit, from a suit to a casual outfit to a beach look, with ease and flair. He is the epitome of Kenergy, a term that Gosling himself coined to describe the quality of being handsome, loyal, fun-loving, and supportive.

Gosling’s Ken is a modern and diverse version of the classic toy, who has been Barbie’s boyfriend or best friend since 1961. He has different looks, outfits, and hobbies, depending on the context and the mood. Ultimately, he is always there for Barbie, supporting her dreams and respecting her choices.
Gosling’s Ken has inspired many men to embrace their Kenergy, both in their appearance and their attitude. Kenergy is not about copying Ken’s style, but about finding your own style that reflects your personality and your passions. It is about being comfortable in your own skin, expressing yourself, and having fun.
If you want to rock the Kenergy look, you don’t have to copy Ken’s style exactly, but you can take some cues from his wardrobe and his attitude. Here are some tips to achieve the Kenergy look:
Fit is key
No matter what you wear, make sure it fits you well and flatters your body type. Avoid clothes that are too tight or too loose as they can make you look sloppy or uncomfortable. Choose clothes that accentuate your best features and hide your flaws.
Color is fun
Don’t be afraid to experiment with different colors, especially pink and pastels, which are Ken’s signature colors. They can add some brightness and personality to your outfit, as well as make you stand out from the crowd. Just make sure to balance them with neutral colors, such as black, white, gray, or navy to avoid looking too flashy or childish.
Pattern is playful
Another way to spice up your outfit is to add some patterns and prints—from stripes, checks, florals, to polka dots. They can add some texture and interest to your look, as well as show your fun and creative side. You can mix and match different patterns and prints as long as they are harmonious and tasteful. A good rule of thumb is to stick to one large pattern and one small pattern per outfit, and to choose patterns and prints that share a common color or theme.
Accessory is essential
Don’t forget to accessorize your outfit with items that add some flair and personality to your look, whether it’s watch, a belt, a hat, or a pair of sunglasses. Choose accessories that match your outfit and your mood, but don’t overdo it. Less is more when it comes to accessories.
Attitude is everything
The most important thing to rock the Kenergy look is to have the right attitude. Be confident, optimistic, respectful, and adventurous in your appearance and your behavior. Express yourself and have fun with your style, but also be mindful of the occasion and the context. Be supportive and respectful to others, but also stand up for yourself and your values. Be cheerful and upbeat, but also realistic and grounded.
By following these tips, you can rock the Kenergy look like Ryan Gosling. You can also watch the Barbie movie to get more inspiration from his performance. In fact, you can start right now by simply being yourself. Remember that Kenergy is not just a look or a trend, but also a way of being that celebrates who you are and what you love.
