Ken’s Fashion Evolution: Decades of Dashing Looks
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 чер 2024
- In this video we take a look at over 25 vintage Ken outfits throughout his incredible history at Mattel. From his very beginnings in 1961 to current day, you’ll see how his style flowed with the times, all the trends he embraced over the years, and why he’s so much more than Barbie’s handsome accessory. All the dolls and fashions you’ll see up close from my personal collection.

Well done. Totally enjoyable and educational.
Thank you! Glad u enjoyed it ❤️
I LOVE THIS VIDEO SO MUCH... I LOVE KEN💖❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥💖
Thank you!!❤️❤️
Again, your knowledge of the items you are discussing, always entertaining and educational. I thoroughly enjoy all your posts and videos!
Thanks so much! Happy to hear it!❤️❤️
Fantastic video! I love Ken dolls, I don't see how anyone just collects the girls. Ken's looks from the 60s-70s are so cool. But I do have to say, the cowboy outfits from the 80s and 90s are pretty awesome, too! Personally, Allan is my favorite male doll Mattel has ever made, he's just so cute. Can't wait for next week's video, keep up the good work!
Thanks so much! Right? Ignoring Ken OR Allan would be a shame. ❤️❤️
That was amazing!!! They definitely don’t make the clothes like they used to. I love how once Ken put on something pink and shiny, he never went back to neutral colors 😂
Thank you! And yeah lol once he discovered neon he never went back. ❤️❤️
I’m here I’m here I’m here! You are Kenough, I am Kenough and he’s MORE than Just Ken!
Haha you are correct! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love…❤ greetings from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Thank u! ❤️❤️
AWESOME NYO!!! But you missed my childhood Ken (Super Star Ken 1988) he has stars in his eyes nyo!!!
You are Kenough!!! love your Kenergy!!!!! you are an amazing Barbie historian they should hire you!!!
Haha thanks girl!❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have the first Ken from 61 as Repro. He´s great.
That’s an awesome repro!
Oh wow last year when my daughter and I were at a yard sale we got some outfits and a Barbie doll wearing Club Dance Ken outfit minus jacket for free along with a Fashionista Barbie African American in a blue flower dress in original box
Sweet find! ❤️
What a fun video! I really enjoyed being reminded of how my long gone 1961 brunette Ken once looked (mine started to go bald pretty fast). His replacement, the plastic blond crew cut Ken, was equally dorky to me. Ken's main purpose was to drive Barbie around in her first roadster. Anyway, I enjoyed seeing the outfits too - I don't think my twin sister and I had any of the outfits you showed this time. I just had a flashback to Ken's brown and white striped PJ's that came with a little wax cinnamon roll. I thought it was so unfair that Barbie's little yellow babydoll PJ's outfit came with a crummy apple but Ken got a yummy sweet roll. That's where my head was at when I was 9 or 10. Anyway, thanks for another great video and if I ever got another Ken doll, it would be that rocker one with the long blond hair, LOL!
Haha you’re reminding me how much I love the mod sleepwear looks! And yes! Love Barbie’s first car. Put her in the Open Road outfit and set her in there and it’s like Lucy goes to Hollywood. lol so cute. Thank you! Glad you enjoyed this one ❤️❤️
@@Thedollswitness Oh yes, the Open Road outfit and roadster were made for each other. (And Lucy's palm beach episode hat/scarf duo always reminds me of the Open Road hat.) Ken would wear his Dreamboat outfit!
My favorite is the first pilot outfit. Also Saturday night date, and Here comes the Groom.
The first two Ken Dolls and Alan love those!! Great video!! Your hair looks great 👨🏻 can’t bet a doll in uniform 😮
Hi yeah Ken the brown coat I had for my Ken in the 70's
Such a great look!🔥
Smooch!!!!
C`mon Ken you betta bring it
I like Live Action Ken! His outfit is so fun!
He’s a stud!🔥🔥
Love your videos! Keep em coming! Thanks
Thanks so much!❤️❤️
That original tuxedo is so beautifully tailored. My personal favourite, however, and I would wear myself, is Animal Loving Ken's outfit. So cute and co-ordinated. Great video as usual
Thank you! Yeah animal lovin ken is super adorable. Really fun line all around ❤️
Love the Ken dolls 😍
Glad you enjoyed it!❤️
My Ken had the outfit as the Ken in the middle
Your New Ken makes me think of that Basket Ball Player who looked amazing in a Ball Gown.
Dennis Rodman? lol I can see that 🙌🏻🔥
I’m obsessed with rooted and flocked hair Kens! I have the Rockers, Totally Hair, several of the movie dolls, Extra, a couple Looks, color reveal Merman, that BMR one with the makeup, and the new Ken Kouture!
Oh nice! Some great ones! He’s definitely more fun with hair. lol ❤️❤️
I love Ken dolls especially the older version but you have a wonderful collection so so jealous !
I have 2 1961 flocked Ken. 1 blonde, 1 brunette. My only Ken’s in my collection and I love them both. I’m just now collecting their clothes
Nice! Great pieces to have and so many outfits to pick from! ❤️
Another great informed video. Rushing to eBay to nab Fun on Ice Ken outfit!! Love the cords. ❤
Thank you! That’s a great fit!❤️❤️
Thanks!
Thanks again for the support! You’re the best!❤️❤️
Ken in the 70s is such a style icon
Totally 🔥🔥❤️
Not ‘’just Ken!
I have a number of Kens including my second favourite - Good Looking Talking Ken (aka ‘mute’ Ken) and both the outfits Suede Scene and Live Action Ken’s fringed outfit, several Superstar face moulds in every hair colour - including a few blondes (aka Robert Redford) and a Caucasian Day to Night, Animal Lovin’ Ken MIB, and Western Fun Ken MIB aka ‘Midnight Cowboy’. My all-time fave Ken is 1999 Shave’n Style Ken that came with an extra outfit - he is the coolest and best looking imo and the reason I have multiples of him - 1 MIB and 2 to re-dress!
Thoroughly enjoyed your retrospective!
Ken is a stud! I have alot of Ken dolls especially from the 90's on. I prefer the rooted hair ones though!
He’s definitely more fun with hair! love a 90s Ken. 😍🔥❤️❤️
I love 1970's Ken
Best Ken ever ❤
Real life Ken talking about his Ken collection. I can feel the Kenergy!
Haha thank you! This was a fun one❤
you are my real life ken love your history I so happy I found you on UA-cam hope met you in person Ken is my fashion ion I look ken when sing opera
Aw thanks so much! haha glad you enjoyed it❤️
I love your video I grow up with 60s and 70s Ken❤❤❤
Nice! Thanks so much!!❤️❤️
Very informative - i have a 90s ken collection in my attic i hope they are ok its been years 😂
Great show of awesomeness once again! Good examples of men’s fashions 60s-90s: when men tucked in their shirts & even their sweaters! Speaking of tucking, did you happen to pick up the new MH RuPaul Dragon Queen? She’s pretty cute.
Thank you! Love these looks! And I was actually gifted that rupaul doll the other day! She’s cute!❤️❤️
Right on!
I need more Ken outfits 😫
Omg thanks again!! You’re the best!❤️❤️
He is So handsome! From IG to YT I'm a follower! Keep going! ❤ As a doll collector you inspired me.
Aw thanks so much! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have Ken with little brother Tommy
I love your backdrop
Mod Hair Ken is my life partner ❤
Haha lucky you!❤️
I used to pretend Superstar Ken's disco jumpsuit was a sci-fi pilot flight suit. :) (like in Battlestar Galactica 1978) I was fortunate enough to get a flocked brunette Ken recently with just a slight flaw to the flocking. He came dressed in the tux, yay! I also have the 2nd Ken, the blond, because he's like the Ken my sister had, except this one has both thumbs. Honestly? Ken fashions can be so hard to get on, I now understand how that happened to my sister's Ken, lol. Malibu Ken was the one I played with, growing up. I have him again, dressed in Midnight Blues. I put the Mod Hair Ken I've collected into Guruvy Formal, another awesome outfit. I have Alan and Brad, too. And, I have Earring Magic Ken (in box). Which Ken was the very first issued as African American?
Haha nice! Midnight blues is a great one! Same for guruvy formal! Not many people mention that one! I’m pretty positive the first AA Ken was sunsational malibu from 81 with rooted hair. A great piece ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great collection
Thanks so much!❤️
I think the the tuxedo Ken actually looks the most stylish and up to date...lol
Yeah definitely the most timeless 😍
I had a Mod Hair Ken and I think it came out in 1972 or 1973. I was wild about that doll and I had to keep it hidden in a closet in the basement so no one would find out along with other dolls I had stashed there. One day all of them were gone without me knowing it. I couldn't say anything because it was my secret stash and it had to be either my mother or father who found them and threw them away. Such a cruel thing to do to a child.
Western Ken was the first Ken I ever got. I thought he was so handsome and of course so did Golden Dream, Pink and Pretty, Beauty Secrets and Angel Face Barbie ha ha
Haha nice lineup! Golden Dream is especially one of my favorites 🔥❤️❤️
I didn't have the other outfits
I did
Robert Redford
I love the way First Kev looks like a 12-year-who's terrified of that voluptuous lady with mean eyes (early ponytail Barbie). Malibu Ken was hot in a McMillan and Wife way.
Animal-lovin' Ken is... wow. No words
Haha right? Malibu is definitely my favorite but there are so many great ones ❤️❤️
Amazing content as always. Love your channel. Lots of information about the dolls. I love all the kens. Did you purchase the newest Ken by Mattel Creations? I did he is fabulous. You need him in your Ken collection for sure. Can you do a video on the ken with the hair from the 70's? He was my first ken. Thanks 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
Thanks so much! I didn’t get that Ken, but I love how over the top he is. 😎 Mod Hair Ken is definitely a good one. 🔥 I’ll make sure I include him in the future ❤️❤️
@@Thedollswitness I am trying to find the mod ken for a good price and in good condition too!. Thank you
🎉❤🎉❤🎉
Great video! 70s Ken was so cool! But, where is 70s Mod Hair Ken with the pornstache? I love him! ❤
Thank you! He’s amazing! Mine is currently wearing a live action Ken outfit so didn’t bring him out. lol ❤️
I didn't have a talking Ken or Barbie
Sue Barbie Love UA-camr has Campus Hero sweater
Does Dr Ken come with the cool syringe? I love him and the Astronaut. BBQ outfit, cute as well!
Yes he does! Right? So many cute ones ❤️
🤗♥️🔥🧜🏻♀️🧜🏻♀️🔥
Big special shout-out to you doll witness from Latin man Ken doll collector❤🫂🫶🏼👍🏼
I have a question about Kens', are all the shoes the same size from the 60s to present? I am thinking of participating in an auction for 2 Ken's from the 60s but they don't have shoes. I have shoes for 80s and 90s Ken's.
I believe they’re all the same size! Some of the earlier ones seemed to be made for wearing thicker socks with a particular outfit but generally I think they should all work for you.
I want to get that Ken with the green hair and makeup. But i don't like his outfit. I woukd have to buy him another outfit since i don't have any extra outfits for him.
That one’s super fun! I bet he’d look cute in a lot of different fits.❤️
I don't know what happened to most of my 70's Kens and Barbies they disappeared I think my girlfriends stole them n
Oh no! lol
Would you get the 35th anniversary dolls ❤ repro I’m
Think about getting them ?
I’m not quite sure which dolls you mean. I know there was a 35th anniversary barbie from ‘94, which is a totally good piece. Do you mean the new 65th anniversary dolls?
@@Thedollswitness it’s the ones that are with the black and white swimsuit and the box has a metallic background purple
That’s a beautiful repro! You could also consider other really affordable repros from that era like poodle parade or silken flame, so you get an outfit that comes with. ❤️
Have you seen the Glamouroz dolls ? Aussie dolls ?
I haven’t! Will have to look em up!
@@Thedollswitness you absolutely love them, I made the mistake of showing my wife now she already has a list of the ones she wants but they aren’t cheap.
@@Thedollswitness the maker of this doll was a Disney animator, absolutely stunning designs and quality
Didn't have 80's Ken
why don't you ever talk about teresa she is lovely
I want to know what Ken look you think is the hottest?
I think Suede Scene might be it, but Play it Cool is up there. The early 70s looks are definitely my favorite 🔥🔥
Barbie Diamond 😂
Do Not Labbel Us All as "Gay"
🥶 service lot of different people in LGBTQI
communities
And
Do I label you as a cisgender man ? No! Cause this is not what defines you, it's what you think and what you say that defines you and I want to hear you as a person before to labbel you.
Crossing discriminations, as the European white transgender gay, I can't watch Mattel working on there various représentations of people afro descendants over the yeaurs, mostly since 2020. And I am glad for people who finaly see theirs representations on varius ways
U r a ken yourself
Haha thank you!❤️
I have way way way more Ken dolls than you 😝
