The Fashion Fairytale Convention Collection did not include only Fashion Royalty and Nu Face dolls of course. Poppy Parker made a strong presence and there was a surprise appearance by her Far East peers: Misaki!

Most beautiful Poppy of the collection. She is of course inspired by Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz. Integrity had done a Rayna in this style and Poppy is giving her a run for her money. Plus she has a lovely bag and accessories. What’s not to love? I’m sure she will be really popular.

What is she wearing? This is a disaster. All that shapeless falbala! The frumpy long sheath does not help a bit. And her lovely face does not salvage this train wreck. I’m certain this looked good on paper but did not translate well on the doll. It seems Poppies have bags. Why don’t the rest of the ladies have them too? She is inspired by Rapunzel. Jessy Ayala said that the hair would have been longer but a longer braid would have caused production problems.
Thanks to the amazing Kotori Couture blog who found the 1963 Valentino outfit that inspired this Poppy confection. It is properly of LACMA and not on display at the moment.

Another lovely Poppy doll. The dress though is a bit shapeless. I wish I could see the bag better. The hairstyle is gorgeous as is her make up. She is channeling Tinkerbell of course.

This Misaki duo is channeling Mickey and Minnie Mouse. Do they count as Fairytale characters? Mmmm no, but the cartoony Misaki faces match the inspiration.
