The 2026 W Club year begins with two doll opportunities from designer Jason Wu, dressed in miniature looks inspired by creations from his Fall/Winter 2023 collection: "Mars Rising" Anais Perrin and "Mystic Moon" Aymeline Perrin. Both ladies are lottery right to buy for club members only, with a slightly better pricing than the usual Wu offerings. The dolls were presented by Alain Trembley and Carol Roth in a live presentation exclusive to the club, which also served as a “town hall” meeting for the start of the club year. The dolls were well received and. despite some video glitches, the event was just fine. Let’s see what all the fuss is about.

The Story:
There were a lot of Perrins involved in W Cosmetics already, and Véronique didn’t want the brand to feel like a family drama, so she skipped the Paris fashion week shows. Her cousin Aymeline was completely lovely, and Véronique respected her decision to make her way on her own. Anais, though, was a different story. She was wildly unpredictable and a polemist at heart. With all that Véronique had going on, she was happy to keep her head down and focus on work. However, there was another duo that had a very different attitude. Missima Cosmetics was plotting a big comeback, and its owner—Natalia Fatalé—alongside her conniving partner, Kyori Sato, were popping up everywhere. They wondered if they could gain some advantage or work an angle by trying to woo the next gen Perrins. Agnes von Weiss was in attendance at the show as well. It was a great place for her to get “inspiration” for whatever would be next for AvW. Her recent stunts had put the new brand on the map in a big way, so why stop now? As the show was nearing its conclusion, Kyori had an idea to approach Anais backstage. Natalia agreed. When she and Natalia got up, Agnes decided to follow. “Perhaps a new inspiration I am not aware of?” she thought, smiling to herself. As Natalia and Kyori approached Anais, the photographers started snapping pictures. Agnes ran to catch up. As Anais turned around, cigarette in hand while still wearing her gorgeous Mars Rising red couture gown, Kyori and Natalia were positioned on her left and Agnes on her right. The media had snapped the perfect pic. Anais rolled her eyes and turned away. But it was too late. The narrative had been set. Everyone saw the new, hottest model in gorgeous couture, who also happened to be a Perrin, sandwiched between a slew of her cousins' biggest rivals—and it was all anyone could talk about.

First up is the second ever iteration of Anais, this time in a darker skin tone and a more structured Jason Wu gown on her. I think it is too soon to see Anais in totally different skin tones. She has to become more familiar and embedded in the Fashion Royalty line up to get that treatment - and then again, I am not sure it was needed. Aymeline had the opposite route - her first iteration was dark skinned, then all the later ones were pale Caucasian dolls, so maybe it hearkens to that course, which, again, is a bit weird. it is always good to have a dark skinned doll in the line up but I’d prefer to see the characters that match those skin tones more often, instead of switching them for the sake of it. This could have been reserved for a special event doll or something similar. Having said that, she is a gorgeous looking lady, who would have looked so much better with a different hairstyle. This one is too matronly and conservative for a supposed “polemist”. A less stiff, more relaxed bob cut would have looked perfect.
She is now in the regular Fashion Royalty body, instead of the NU Face one that she had in her first reveal. As for the gown, taken from the Jason Wu Fall 2023 RTW Collection, the fabric makes it look more stiff and structured than the original, with the bodice draping completely omitted and replaced by horizontal panels. They have done draping on bodices before, so I do not get this decision, which is definitely connected to the type of fabric used. And because of it, we are also losing the moire effect of the original gown. As if to compensate, we get a flat pair of feet with kitten heel shoes in addition to the high-heeled feet and sandals, a lovely metallic clutch (not a given with Jason Wu dolls) and an imposing, Ancient Egyptian looking necklace paired with huge drop earrings, a dramatic ring and a wrist watch, not present on the original look. As a dressed doll she looks fantastic. As a miniature iteration of a runway look from an established fashion designer it is a slight failure.

The Story:
Aymeline had worked relentlessly to build her reputation on her own. The last thing she wanted was to be considered a “nepo baby” in the fashion industry, so she curated her image and relationships very carefully. But now that her sister Anais decided to join the industry, everything was turning into a circus. The Perrin name that Aymeline had dropped was now front and center of headlines, with the “next generation of Perrin sisters” feeding the media frenzy. Aymeline loved her sister, but she didn’t necessarily always trust her decisions, as Anais thrived in chaos. But, at least for now, Anais was following her sister’s lead in staying away not only from their cousins’ cosmetics conglomerate, but also their big industry rivals. Aymeline had tried to focus on couture and runway work, but with Anais now working Paris Fashion Week with her, she worried that her curated image might become jeopardized. As Aymeline sauntered down the runway with her signature walk wearing her gorgeous, romantic Mystic Moon gown, all eyes were on her. She felt calm and at home. Finally, the pit that she had in her stomach all day subsided. But that changed in a minute as soon as she got backstage. She saw Anais in the corner, smoking. On one side of her she spotted AvW’s Agnes von Weiss, and the other side of her the two masterminds of Missima Cosmetics, whose personal reputations were even bigger than their brand’s—Natalia Fatalé and Kyori Sato. The cameras’ flashes were going wild. Aymeline turned in disgust. “She is going to hear about this!”

Aymeline has a very romantic look here, both in her make up and hairstyle, as well as her gown, again from the Jason Wu Fall 2023 RTW Collection, in contrast to the more structured look of her younger sister. I wonder how it would have played out if they had the opposite styles. Her face is soft and sultry, with the winged eyeliner becoming her signature. Integrity Toys is playing it very safe with these dolls, even though they are using the old AvantGuard sculpts in scaled form. They could have given them both more fashion forward styling, even the one used on the Wu runway. they did a much better job in translating the gown down to doll size on this one. if I am lucky to get the doll, I will try to have her neck ruffle stay up, like in the runway dress. We are getting lots of accessories here as well, with a bag in its dust cover, an intriguing pair of bracelets that look like hands grasping the doll’s wrists, a ring and bold hoop earrings. No flat feet for this one though, which is a missed opportunity. She’s in a rarely used skin tone, porcelain.
