After the success of the Barbie movie, our trend-spotters at Firstfinds predict that Barbie and Ken will be two of this year's most popular Halloween costumes. Though he might be just Ken, the iconic doll makes for a pretty foolproof Halloween costume: he's instantly recognizable and easy to recreate at the last minute.
To help you nail down your Ken costume this year, we've rounded up six Ken Halloween costumes plucked straight from the big screen. There's no shortage of blonde wigs, fringe vests and cowboy shirts available at Amazon, Walmart and Spirit Halloween, making it easier (and more affordable) than ever to dress up as your favorite version of Ken. From Dojo Mojo Casa House Ken to Cowboy Ken, these easy Ken costumes will bring serious "Kenergy" to your Halloween party. Plus, they make great couple's costumes to rock with the Barbie in your life.
