Ryan Gosling arrived at the Los Angeles premiere of “Barbie” on Sunday, wearing a Barbiecore-pink blush suit paired with a light pink silk shirt and white lace-up shoes. He accessorized with a necklace with a letter “E” pendant in the signature “Barbie” font.
Gosling’s full look was from Gucci. The actor worked with his stylist and personal shopper Mark Avery, who has been Gosling’s go-to stylist throughout the ongoing press tour for “Barbie.”
The actor, who plays Ken in the movie, wasn’t the only guest on the film’s red carpet channeling the Barbiecore pink inspiration for the premiere. Here, WWD takes a closer look at other stars donning the shade on Sunday’s red carpet.
