Jacob Palmer was hardly a professional stylist and he never tried to pass himself off as one. He knew what looked good, he understood the general sphere of men's luxury fashion, and he knew what women liked and what men tended to envy.

He also was pretty aware of how lacking a lot of said menswear could be. Jacob himself wasn't afraid of color. Deeper ones, sure. But he wore greens and reds and blues. Black suits had their times and their places, but they were pretty boring. He wasn't afraid of color but... sequins? Fringe? The man stared for the other in dragging silence and then seemed to remember how to breath and let out an exasperated breath and a tongue click.

❝ First off: Fashion Fever Ken dressed like a college dude who couldn't decide if he wanted to be a beer keg pumping frat boy or a sensitive soul performative Feminist who posted half-baked poetry to his Myspace journal. The hoodie-jean-satchel bag look died in the early 2000s and it needs to stay dead. ❞ And he was not ever going to elaborate on why exactly he knew a damned thing about any doll line.

❝ Look. Ken. Baby. Sequins are like... taking someone home to meet your parents. You're not ready for it. It's too big of a step right now. Baby steps, okay? Let's try putting you in some pastels with some minor accessories and we'll work our way up from there. ❞

He pressed his knuckles to his chin and gave Ken a look of consideration, even moved around to circle him.

❝ And maybe, maaaaybe some denim. Light-wash. To match that blinding platinum blond you've got going on. ❞

“ HE DID NOT! ” adamant within his opinion, “ he looked so cool. ” ken finds that he's almost envious he hadn't been one of the fashion fever dolls. being a stereotypical beach ken could only take a guy so far. “ the early 2000s had the best fashion & the second best face molds. ” at least, they did for barbie anyway. thanks, mattel. way to leave a guy out from all the cool, good-looking upgrades. “ 2010s wasn't bad either, but not in terms of fashion. ” god forbid anyone revisit the travesty that was 2010s fashion packs! “ are you saying you wouldn't revisit a nice satchel bag now? they're practical, jacob. ”

( "look. ken. baby." ) all at once the doll is silenced, head cocked ever so slightly to the side. akin to a puppy, almost. knowledge is taken in stride, digesting the every ounce of information provided. as certain as ken is about fashion, there are things about the real world he lacks knowledge within. trusting jacob's expertise completely was something he's become comfortable with. & so, he listens, nodding along as words pour forth. “ pastels would be cool. ” something definitely more up his wheelhouse. he would settle for a lack of sequins or fringe for the time being. even if it would inevitably be missed later.

“ denim, yeah. ” another nod. he had grown to like denim. real denim, not some polyester fabric blend screen printed to look like denim. “ blinding, really? you think it's blinding? ” a genuine smile, bright as ever. words are taken as a compliment, wholly & completely. “ thank you. ”

' i do have a pretty active imagination. '

“ THAT MAKES SENSE. ” firm in his opinion, as if it was complete fact. “ you work on movies, right? so cool, by the way. ” not to brag, but he's met a few kens that were created based off something called 'straight to DVD' animated films. their counterparts were film stars! he basically knew celebrities. “ you have to have a great imagination for something like that. movies don't work without one. that's pretty much the whole point of movies. ”

' i believe this suits you better. '

AZURE HUES DOWNCAST, taking in the sight presented. articles of clothing are analyzed with the utmost intensity. this was something that took careful judgement, a delicate thing really. & it wasn't that ken didn't trust jacob, of course he did! it was just... by the doll's standards, — & barbieland's, for that matter — the clothing of the real world was lackluster. something about it didn't measure up to whatever polyester & nylon fashion pack mattel was peddling these days. “ hm... ”

he shakes his head, certain in his dislike of the chosen combination. ken had sixty-five years of existence behind each thought. sure, maybe this ken didn't, but kens in general kept such knowledge. within those sixty-five years, fashion had changed time & time again. it was something every doll kept up with in barbieland. especially the kens. after all, what was a ken doll if not barbie's greatest accessory? “ it doesn't have enough color. could we add something? ” as if whatever insane idea was about to arise could be tailored with ease.

“ sequins? fringe? i hear the early 2000s aesthetic is coming back. 2006 saw fashion fever kens, maybe something like that. ” it isn't a question, more of a suggestion he assumes will be taken seriously.
