The doll is none other than Baby Blue Imogen Lennox, who has not been seen since 2017 and her Heirloom appearance.

The story:

In the heart of Paris, one NU. Face agency's top model and influencer; Imogen Lennox; is stepping back into the limelight with a fresh project: launching "Wonderland", a new makeup brand created in collaboration with W Cosmetics and inspired by the whimsical world of Alice in Wonderland! The brand’s signature colour is baby blue, and Imogen is dressed by the stylists to embody its spirit with a touch of sparkle and flawless makeup to add some modernity to the campaign.

Accompanied by her playful kitten, Blue, Imogen prepared for the grand publicity campaign under the watchful eye of her new collaborator, Véronique Perrin. The studio had been transformed into a magical wonderland, filled with oversized tea cups and pastel lights.

As the photo shoot began, Imogen’s graceful poses and Blue’s spontaneous antics captured the enchanting essence of Wonderland. The resulting images were nothing short of magical, perfectly reflecting the brand’s dreamlike quality.

At the end of the day, Véronique and Imogen admired the stunning photos. “You and Blue brought Wonderland to life,” Véronique said, beaming with pride. Imogen smiled, holding baby Blue close. Just like the city outside buzzed with excitement, "Wonderland" was ready to enchant the world! - Designed by Jessy Ayala

Seeing Imogen as the first W Club doll of the year was a great and welcome surprise. Seeing her being so incredibly beautiful and smashing was even better. I love everything about her, from her new screening with the larger eyes, her awesome hairstyle (which reminds me of Sandy in Grease, if it took place ten years later) and her outfit. Consisting of a multitude of pieces, it not only looks cool and amazing, it also gives you many different combinations. The flower sequins look the same as those on the Hippie Dippy Poppy dress. Did I mention that the bow has a magnet for attaching it however and wherever you like? The chubby faux fur coat? The kitten (which is a very early prototype)? Jessy said he was inspired by Alice in Wonderland, hence the colours and the kitten and the Mary Janes. And it is the 60s through the 90s through now. The club sleuths quickly figured out the real fashion world outfit inspiration: Miu Miu Fall/Winter 2022. And how about her face? We can see echoes of the first ever Giselle (Costume Drama), the Style Lab Fashion Fairy-tale Tulabelle (wearing an Alice in Wonderland outfit), And from real people, she looks a lot like a young Cameron Diaz or even Florence Henderson (and yes Florence could pass as Cameron’s mum).

The accessories are also amazing. We get both high heeled and flat feet, to go with the thigh high boots and the Mary Jane shoes. The silver elongated bag is fantastic and looks inspired by the Miu Miu Arcadie bag. Love the round sunglasses. Plenty of jewellery to pile on, with many bracelets and two pairs of earrings, plus two rings. I could not press the pre-order button fast enough. I have loved Imogen from her very first appearance (and still kick myself for not getting that one but there were so many dolls released at the same time it was impossible), so it was a no-brainer. See below a video of the rotating doll. There was mention of the doll having retouched eyes in the photos and indeed they do look tampered with 0 but check the video to see her real eyes. I guess they did not look exactly as planned, even though they do look great in the video - to my eyes at least.

The first W Club doll for 2022 appears so late that Mad Hatter left without her!

The 1st W Club Exclusive doll, one of the five that W Club members are entitled to as part of their membership, appeared later than any other time in living memory. Designed by IT designer David Buttry, she harkens back to the Fairytale convention, inspired obviously by Alice in Wonderland.

The Story:

Poppy had a fantastic opportunity to participate in a new ad campaign for "Drink Me" cola. She was so excited to be a part of the project! It would include not only a print ad for magazines but also a nationwide commercial! The theme of the campaign involved beloved storybook characters drinking the popular soda pop brand, and with Poppy’s love of reading and drinking cola, she thought this was the perfect fit for her. Once she stepped foot on the wonderfully decorated set and tried on her fabulous costume, she knew she had made the right decision!

It seems to me that the first W club doll this year took forever to appear! Has it ever been this late before? Oh dear Alice you are so late that the White Rabbit looks positively punctual compared to her! I would have preferred a doll like this to appear either as part of Nu Fantasy or another themed collection - definitely not as one of our five club dolls. Adorable and cute as she is, she failed to attract my interest in acquiring her. Even reading the email was perfunctory. With pricing as it is now, I will have to pass on this - not something I usually do with club dolls. On the positive side, her face looks gorgeous and the screening looks new to me. People said that the rabbit can be found on AliExpress, so you can have one without the added doll costs. Alice has been done to death from all major doll companioes in every size and iteration possible, so adding another one to the list, beautiful as she is, does nothing for me.
