Integrity Toys 2024 convention - Stilettos Out day 1: Nu Face Seven Style Lab

As mentioned in the previous post, the Souvenir Shop of the Stilettos Out convention also had the Style Lab dolls, which were all NU Face this year. As per the Integrity Toys email:

For this year’s NU. Face Seven Style Lab, it was a NU. Face fan's fantasy come to life as IT designer extraordinaire Jessy Ayala invited convention attendees to take part in the ultimate heist! What if the NU. Face Agency’s elite team of models had been hired to mastermind and conduct a top-secret mission to obtain the complicated components of a highly advanced device laced with diamonds, working for a mysterious client they had never met in person? In this exciting adventure tale, your favourite NU. Face models got to wear fabulous clothes and take part in the most covert scheme they’ve ever undertaken together!

Prototypes of each doll/fashion figure and each outfit were displayed for all attendees to view and help them purchase the ones they wanted, since the actual dolls they were buying had not arrived. Each doll in the Style Lab is always sold nude; outfits are sold separately.- but from what I read on social media, you had to buy one outfit for each nude doll you got. Total price was $150.00 for a doll and an outfit together: $65 per doll and $85 per outfit. Still no mention anywhere of what had happened, no admission of any fault or mistake, no apology.Which I am guessing was advised by their legal representative as a way to avoid complications. Still, it sucks.

There was a Special Bonus Build-A-Doll thing incorporated into the Style Lab this year, just like in 2018. Each doll and each outfit included a bonus "build-a-doll" component that allowed purchasers to put together an additional, complete NU. Face dressed doll when the entire collection is purchased. That was Violaine, who you can see further below in this article.

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Designed to fit FR Homme 1.5 and similar 12-inch/1:6 scale fashion figures.

Designed By Jessy Ayala

Lukas looks edgy as always, ready to hit the town. I can’t say I am thrilled with the silver flocked hair - I’d rather have it pale blonde or white instead. It takes a blueish tone that does not look that good to me. His suit is probably inspired by McQueen - cut out suits have been shown on men and women in the brand’s collections fairly recently.The high heel ruins the look for me - it gives of summer lover sleaziness.

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Designed to fit NF 3.0 and similar 12-inch/1:6 scale fashion dolls.

Designed By Jessy Ayala

Erin looks gorgeous in this version, especially with her honey ginger hair. She has the screening of Your Motivation Erin but modified. The dress print echoes the coat of When In Paris Poppy. Love the shoes and choker necklace.Her whole styling gives me strong Blanche Epiphanie vibes - she was the heroine of a french comic series.

Item # 82180

No. 3

Nadja Rhymes™ Nude Doll

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Designed to fit NF 3.0 and similar 12-inch/1:6 scale fashion dolls.

Designed By Jessy Ayala

Nadja is a mishmash of the Enchantress and Out Of Sight Nadja dolls, which means she’s becoming really popular to collectors! I’m not that keen on the blueish eye-shadow though. The outfight is a glamorous extravaganza that elevates the whole set (if you bought them together) into perfection! Just imagine how enthusiastically would club members have accepted Adrenaline Rush Dominique if she was wearing something like that. Brilliant style and execution Jessy!

Item # 82181

No. 4

Colette Duranger™ Nude Doll

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Head Sculpt: Colette 1.0

Wild Rush Fashion Pack

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Designed to fit NF 3.0 and similar 12-inch/1:6 scale fashion dolls.

Designed By Jessy Ayala

The original Colette (and Nadja) sculpt returns with a sultry look - have we seen her so sexy and seductive before? The outfit is country and western glam, with lots of people commenting that it was inspired by Beyoncé and her Cowboy Carter looks. But the first of those looks were released on February (for the two singles) of this year and I do not think they had the time to design, approve and make the doll so fast. Or could they?

Item # 82182

No. 5

Ayumi Nakamura™ Nude Doll

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Head Sculpt: Ayumi 3.0

Inside Info Fashion Pack

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Designed to fit NF 3.0 and similar 12-inch/1:6 scale fashion dolls.

Designed By Jessy Ayala

Ayumi is cute - but I would have preferred a fierce Ayumi. Her hair makes her look like another version of Hauntingly Lovely Ayumi and she even has the same colours in her screening - but side by side they look different.I love her dress, it could have fit with the Reckless collection styled with different items. Which says it all about this outfit.

Item # 82179

No. 6

Thiago Valente™ Nude Fashion Figure

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Head Sculpt: Thiago

Body Type: FR Homme 1.5

Skin Tone: A-Tone

Tech Skills Fashion Pack

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Designed to fit FR Homme 1.5 and similar 12-inch/1:6 scale fashion figures.

Designed By Jessy Ayala

Thiago must be the winner of the popularity contest in the Style Lab dolls, judging by the reactions of everyone online. He’s a gorgeous doll and looks amazing with or without his sporty outfit. From that I love the boots and high socks, gloves and bag. Can we stop it with the convertible pants already? It has been overused, abused maybe.

Item # 82184

No. 7

Rayna Ahmadi™ Nude Doll

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Head Sculpt: Rayna

Scope Out Fashion Pack

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Designed to fit NF 3.0 and similar 12-inch/1:6 scale fashion dolls.

Designed By Jessy Ayala

Rayna goes mod! With this style she could be a friend of Poppy’s! She does remind me a bit of Silver Cloud Poppy - maybe it’s the Edie Sedgwick look they both share. Love the bag.Her screening is the same as Eye Candy Rayna’s.

So who is the mysterious Build-A-Doll? Those who purchased the entire Style Lab collection received all the components to complete a special bonus mystery dressed doll. Once all of the components are collected and put together, attendees will have the "Criminal Kitty" Violaine Perrin dressed doll. There was also a build-an-accessory item, from “diamond” encrusted pieces also included with every box. What it is? The mystery thickens…

Item # 82183B

Criminal Kitty

Violaine Perrin™ Build-A-Doll

The NU. Face® Style Lab Collection

Stilettos Out: An Integrity Toys Fashion Thriller

Edition Size: 600

Head Sculpt: Violaine/Vanessa 2.0

Body Type: NF 3.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: Japan

Hair Color: Garnet Red

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

Designed By Jessy Ayala

What a gorgeous Violaine doll! I love her burgundy hair contrasting her pale skin, her smoky eyes and pale lip combination. Her overall styling is, as shown by her Criminal Kitty name, inspired by Catwoman, especially the Julie Newmar version. I love her lace bodysuit and satin wrap mini skirt. Her arm bag is of course Dolly by Balenciaga.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Prototypes shown throughout this email, final products may vary. Mugshot signs and other props are not included. These collectibles are meant for adult collectors ages 15 and up only.

Integrity Toys Legendary 2020 Convention day 3: The W Club Event

With the convention this year being virtual, Integrity Toys decided to open up the W Club event to all members of the club. And that is the reason most of us managed to attend the convention, even though we did not have access to the convention collection, the style lab or any other event dolls apart from this one. Still though, it was really nice and a great experience, even online. The club event was great, all the Integrity Toys designers were in the pre-recorded presentation and talked about their history with the company and the lines they design for it. Some news from the talk: the LatinX character (not Isabella Alves)will be part of the Nu Face line. Mark Tinkley is going to revisit a popular brand that “lets people’s fantasies come to life” - could it be Nu Fantasy? Chris Stoeckel said there will be new characters added to the East 59th line up. Vaughn was really vague and did not give out anything but all designers, during the Q+A section agreed that costume and fantasy dolls are very possible. The centerpiece doll left everyone with their jaw on the floor when it was revealed in the beginning of the presentation, with Jessy commenting on it later on. This doll will be a preorder for the participants, as the number of attendees of this event is way bigger than the rest of the convention, so the doll will ship in Spring 2021. Add to that the delay of the arrival of the giveaway doll (it will ship late December - early January) and we will not see the actual dolls of this event for quite a while yet.

Item # 91482

Wicked Narcissism

Eugenia Perrin-Frost™ Dressed Doll

The 2020 Integrity Toys 25th Anniversary Convention: Legendary

W Club Event Centerpiece

Limited Edition: TBD

Head Sculpt: Eugenia

Body Type: FR 6.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: Cream

Hair Color: Raven

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

Quickswitch: No

What an amazing doll! It’s not often that we get this much goth in Fashion Royalty and this one is done in a very elegant way, The original inspiration is Dark Narcissus Kyori Sato but the capable internet sleuths quickly discovered an Alexander McQueen Fall/Winter 2019 outfit that matches this one really well. Add the lace details from another Alexander McQueen outfit, this one from Fall/Winter 2018 collection and you get Eugenia’s outfit.

Item # 82132

Charmed Child

Ayumi Nakamura™ Dressed Doll

The 2020 Integrity Toys 25th Anniversary Convention: Legendary

W Club Event Souvenir

Limited Edition: 1369

Head Sculpt: Ayumi 3.0

Body Type: NF 3.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: FR White

Hair Color: Crimson

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

Quickswitch: No

This is a beautiful; Ayumi! The original inspiration is Miracle Child Ayumi, which is the first one ever released (and had the original sculpt). The dress is a bit simpler than the original and she does not have the gorgeous red bag that was with that giftset. The hat reminds me a lot of this year’s upgrade Eugenia. Her hair colour is gorgeous and fits her so much. I’m happy for our W Club doll.

Integrity Toys Dolly Days finale pt.1: NuFace 2019 Collection reveal

While the fifth Dolly Day went by without any offer from Integrity Toys - just a teaser email about Saturday’s reveal, the sixth and last day of the online event made up for it in spades. While the two collections offered by the company and designed by Jessy Ayala are small in number (three dolls per each), they were enthusiastically received by collectors and are probably going to be quite popular. In this post, we will check out the NuFace ladies and their days off concept: the dolls are dressed in clothes that they would wear in their everyday life, each in her own unique style. They are great looking dolls, but for their $150.00 price, I wanted more elaborate outfits and styles. All three are available from Integrity Toys dealers.

Item # 82117

Cool Kid

Ayumi Nakamura™ Dressed Doll

NU. Face Collection: Off Duty

Expected Ship Date: March 2020

Suggested Retail Pricing: $150.00

*ONLY AVAILABLE VIA IT DEALERS*

Edition Size: 900

Head Sculpt: Ayumi 3.0

Body Type: NF 3.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled Foot and Flat Foot

Skin Tone: FR White

Hair Color: Soft Ebony

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

Quickswitch: No

Included:

• 12.5" fully articulated doll with rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes;

• Ultra-cool customized retro-inspired bleached denim cropped shorts and jacket;

• Heather gray cropped tee;

• Highly detailed, faux-leather fanny pack;

• Micro-chain jewelry set (necklace and dangle earrings) and ring;

• Wristwatch;

• Retro-inspired sunglasses;

• Alternate pair of lower legs with articulated flat feet;

• Black and white sports shoes;

• White sport socks;

• White pleather booties with contrasting chunky heels;

• Pair of long-manicure hands;

• Alternate pair of "grip" hands;

• Stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

Ayumi is beautiful, looking fresh but very basic, with her plain hair and outfit. She looks like she was part of the lottery NuFace Essentials capsule collection revealed last May. If I did not have Power House Ayumi, I might have considered getting her. She’s ideal for those that don’t have any Ayumi yet. But still expensive for what you get.

Item # 82115

It Girl Magic

Colette Duranger™ Dressed Doll

NU. Face Collection: Off Duty

Expected Ship Date: April 2020

Suggested Retail Pricing: $150.00

*ONLY AVAILABLE VIA IT DEALERS*

Edition Size: 900

Head Sculpt: Colette 2.5 (New, Slightly Revised Sculpt!)

Body Type: NF 3.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled Foot and Flat Foot

Skin Tone: Sunkissed

Hair Color: Blush Pink

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

Quickswitch: No

Included:

• 12.5" fully articulated doll with rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes;

• Intricately constructed denim jacket dress, with contrasting plaid applique panels, cinched at the waist by a narrow, black patent leather belt;

• Wide-brimmed Andalusian hat with satin ribbon trim;

• Earrings and black star ring;

• Oversized, faded gradient sunglasses;

• Faux-leather clutch purse;

• Black nylon stockings;

• Pair of chunky mid-calf faux-leather boots;

• Pair of high-fashion open-toe strappy heels;

• Alternate pair of lower legs with articulated flat feet;

• Pair of long-manicure hands;

• Alternate pair of "grip" hands;

• Stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

Jessy revised the new Colette sculpt by shrinking the (admittedly oversized) head a bit, and it shows. She looks much better than her debut incarnation back in the Supermodel Convention. If she had a different hair colour, I might have considered buying her, as I do not own any Colette yet. Her green eyes are mesmerising.

Her coat dress is a shorter version of a Balmain Fall 2019 RTW coat. On the runway, it was worn with opaque tights, which fit the off duty concept much better, and over something resembling a blouse/shirt/short dress leather thing, which would have made this doll so much better (along with the original length of the outfit) and worth the $150.00 price tag. Just imagine it made with that soft fake leather stretchy material used for doll gloves. The exact outfit shown on the runway is nowhere to be found either on the brand’s website or major online retailers, so it might have been runway only.

Item # 82116

Fashion Darling

Giselle Diefendorf™ Dressed Doll

NU. Face Collection: Off Duty

Expected Ship Date: March 2020

Suggested Retail Pricing: $150.00

*ONLY AVAILABLE VIA IT DEALERS*

Edition Size: 1000

Head Sculpt: Giselle

Body Type: NF 3.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled Foot and Flat Foot

Skin Tone: Hungarian

Hair Color: Bronze Blond

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

Quickswitch: No

Included:

• 12.5" fully articulated doll with rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes;

• High-fashion, air force inspired, OD green flight suit with tiny zipper details and cargo pockets;

• High-contrast black and white flocked leopard printed neck scarf;

• Designer, high-gloss embossed handbag;

• Miniature sketchbook accessory with mechanical pencil;

• Vintage inspired sunglasses;

• "Golden" half-hoop earrings and signet ring;

• Cutting edge screen printed vinyl high-heels;

• NUFACE branded white pleather sneakers;

• Alternate pair of lower legs with articulated flat feet;

• Pair of long-manicure hands;

• Alternate pair of "grip" hands

• Stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

This lady looks like she jumped out of the Top Gun cast. Pity they did not give her aviator sunglasses to match the jumpsuit. She matches the convention Fresh Perspective Agnes in her colouring. I was tempted but her hairstyle is so wrong for this outfit and NuFace in general. Which is a complaint for this collection in general: apart from Colette’s colours, the rest feels a bit tame for such a line. Maybe they should have carried on with the basic/underwear theme and given us lower priced dolls.

Fashion Fairytale: Integrity Toys Convention 2017 part 1 - The Convention Collection

October is the month of the 2017 Integrity Toys convention and of course I will be posting all dolls and information as they become available. First up is the official convention collection, which attendees could either preorder sight unseen with their registration or buy at the convention in the souvenir shop set up within the hotel where the event is taking place. This post presents the convention collection Fashion Royalty and Nu Face dolls, while the Poppies and co. will be featured in the next one. 

The convention registration started yesterday for those arriving early and everyone received a mysterious bag containing an empty box that will be the basis of the usual gift set completed day by day throughout the event. No idea yet who the doll will be or what it comes with yet, but people from the convention report that the # number marks her as Nu Face. My general opinion for this collection is that I’m not overwhelmed but am glad to see that the upgrade Doll which was available even to non-attending W Club members is the best of the bunch by far. Let’s try to guess which fairytale inspired each doll.

Item # 91424

Wicked Behavior

Natalia Fatalé™ Dressed Doll

The Fashion Royalty® Collection

The 2017 Integrity Toys Convention: Fashion Fairytale

Convention Collection

Edition Size: 600 Dolls

Natalia looks gorgeous here, even though her dress is a bit boring. She must be inspired by the Wicked Witch from the Wizard of Oz. The face screening is a dead ringer for Hot Property Natalia.

Item # 91425

Spell of Kindness

Vanessa Perrin™ Dressed Doll

The Fashion Royalty® Collection

The 2017 Integrity Toys Convention: Fashion Fairytale

Convention Collection

Edition Size: 600 Dolls

If Natalia is the Wicked Witch, Vanessa is Glinda. The dress looks like a rehash of the Miss Amour Poppy Parker Dior inspired one. Washed Out is the nickname I would give. Looks like she is the Vanessa 1.0 sculpt. If they were going for a Metal Maven feel, it came out more In Bloom. The dress is a Carolina Herrera Resort 2017 gown. Remember they did Oz dolls for IFDC In 2011, with much better results.(Go North Isha / Luchia below):

Kiernan Shipka by Kristian Schuller for Carolina Herrera Resort 2017

Item # 91426

Sea-Devil

Véronique Perrin™ Dressed Doll

The Fashion Royalty® Collection

The 2017 Integrity Toys Convention: Fashion Fairytale

Convention Collection

Edition Size: 600 Dolls

Beautiful Veronique in her green dress and cape. The leather corset and jewelry make the doll much more interesting. Details that could have helped Vanessa pop up a bit. She does remind me a bit of her Cinematic Convention incarnation.  She must be inspired by the Little Mermaid’s Sea Witch.

Item # 91431

Fashionably Ruthless

Tatyana Alexandrova™  Dressed Doll Gift Set

The Fashion Royalty Collection

2017 Fashion Fairytale Upgrade

Final Edition Size: TBA

This the upgrade convention doll that was offered to non attending W Club member as well as convention goers to preorder, based on sketches. I’m happy to say this is the best doll by far. Both her outfits look great, she is a gorgeous doll and the Cruella De Vill inspiration is spot on. She will be shipping to non attendees by the end of the month.

Item # 82091

Rarest of All

Ayumi Nakamura™ Dressed Doll

The NU. FACE Collection

The 2017 Integrity Toys Convention: Fashion Fairytale

Convention Collection

Edition Size: 600 Dolls

This one must be Mulan inspired. I like the hair ornaments but that’s all. Great face but nothing to write home about. When you take away the ornaments (photo above), she looks really plain.  The colouring of both face and clothes channel the Royal Life convention Criminally Chic Kyori: 

Item # 82092

Changing Winds

Eden Blair™ Dressed Doll

The NU. FACE Collection

The 2017 Integrity Toys Convention: Fashion Fairytale

Convention Collection

Edition Size: 600 Dolls

Eden is undoubtedly Pocahontas. And her first time in a darker skintone, if I’m not mistaken. She looks like she came out of a Ralph Lauren ad. Great boho styling.  

Item # 82095

24K

Erin Salston™ Dressed Doll

The NU. FACE Collection

The 2017 Integrity Toys Convention: Fashion Fairytale

IT DIRECT SALESROOM EXCLUSIVE

Edition Size: 600 Dolls

The Souvenir shop exclusive is another Erin ( did they overproduce the sculpt by mistake and now they flood the market with her?). This one is inspired by Rumpelstiltskin but she’s not winning any gold medals from me. Platinum hair for a doll personifying a fairytale character that spuns gold out of straw? Come on! The leather coat should have had a dark gold shade as well instead of this basic brown. I like the silhouette though.

So what do you think of the convention collection? Which one is your favourite?

Integrity Toys Summer 2017 reveal: Nu Face Heirloom collection

The W Club members were eagerly waiting for Saturday the 24th of June for the promised unveil of the two main Integrity Toys collections, Nu Face and Fashion Royalty. After the success of the Reckless collection, the company let the talented Jesse Ayala work his magic again for the new one. And he did not disappoint.
Named "The Heirloom Collection" it is dedicated to all of those little items we own in our personal closets that make our looks so special. Each doll in this series comes with one special item that is true and dear to her. Maybe it's a special pair of earrings, a delicate brush or a fabulous mirror, but it's definitely cherished for generation after generation. Jesse said he was in a romantic mood, with a haunted mansion as his setting, imagining the Nu Face ladies had used it as a set for their fashion shoot. Luckily he did not present a goth rehash but instead his vision is that of a very modern, updated and - dare I say - minimal Victorian aesthetic. It also looks like a successor to Reckless, evolving it forward. The body is Nu Face 3.0 which means no waist articulation and pop out joints.

The dolls are more expensive this year. There was the usual,talk of raised costs in China and paying for quality and fully accessorised dressed dolls. In the case it is backed by a brilliant collection, which will help sales despite the price raise. So run to the authorized dealers as some dolls are already sold out - the W Club members having had 48 hours advance warning. You will find them here: http://www.integritytoys.com/authorized-dealers/

Charmed Life
Imogen Lennox Dressed Doll

Retail Price: $140.00 US

Doll Tech Specs:

Head Sculpt: Imogen
Body: NF 3.0
Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: Japan
Hair Color: Ginger
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied
Quickswitch: No 

Imogen is a fully articulated 12.5 inch fashion doll with fully rooted hair. Her look is composed of a bouffant satin skirt over a 3/4 sleeved brocade bodysuit, which sports an elaborate lacing detail at the back. She completes this look with a metallic-finish purse, short lacy gloves and over-sized chunky boots. Her screening also features soft freckles. For adult collectors ages 15 and up only. This doll cannot stand alone; a doll stand is included.

Gorgeous version of Imogen. With her red hair amd pale skin and freckles she is very different from all her previous incarnations. The outfit looks nice as well, with the contrasting textures and colours. The brooch is her heirloom, used in a variety of ways: as a hair or clothing ornament. I have a very limited budget this year so she was the one to cut from my want list. I hope to get her in the future though. Her screening is based on the Going Public Eugenia one, which is a firm favourite not only of Jesse but of most Integrity Toys collectors. 

Oh, do not let the flat looking boots deceive you. Her feet are the usual high heeled ones.  They are using a design that looks flat but accommodates the high heel.

​Erin Salston is a 12.5 inch fully articulated fashion doll with rooted hair. Erin is wearing the a designer jacket, matched with a shiny lurex skirt with a black net overlay. Erin completes the look with high-heeled lace-up booties, mesh stockings and her mini-case. For adult collectors ages 15 and up only. This doll cannot stand alone; a doll stand is included.

For me, this is the most uninteresting doll of the collection, and this says a lot. She's very beautiful in the Latino skin tone, with a very detailed outfit and lovely accessories (heirloom mini case anyone? Spider ring!) but she is no match for the rest. I love the bishop sleeves.

Rayna wears a fitted knitted turtleneck bodysuit with oversized drop-shoulder sleeves under a pair of daringly low, ultra-fitted motocross pants. For adult collectors ages 15 and up only. This doll cannot stand alone; a doll stand is included.

Rauna is in Latino skin tone here, with dark hair, which brings her origins to the fore. Strangely enough she did not click with me. It could be the pInk lipstick, which, combine with the grey blue pants and tassel earrings give an 80s vibe. Her heirloom, the cuff/ring, is gorgeous, although I would have like it more oriental looking. It is a heirloom after all. Doesn't she remind you of Gigi or Bella Hadid?

 Nadja Rhymes is a 12.5 articulated doll with fully rooted hair. She wears a lingerie set composed of a delicately constructed black shrug embelished in black petals over her bustier and panties. It also includes shoes, stockings jewelry and her vintage chrome handheld mirror. For adult collectors ages 15 and up only. This doll cannot stand alone; a doll stand is included.

Nadja is the smash hit of the collection - second time in a row. Her silver hair, gorgeous face and sexy outfit combine into perfection. I was lucky to preorder her but the dealers who were accepting preorders are sold out. Maybe you can get her from those opening store today. Good luck!  She is a close up doll, meaning a lingerie basic edition, hence the lower price. She does have a ring and a mirror, which is great. I love the shrug!

​Ayumi is a 12.5 inch articulated fashion doll with rooted hair. She comes dressed in a lingerie set, coupled with a knitted cardigan that features petals all over the sleeves. Ayumi comes complete with her mother's cameo ring and heirloom silver plated hand-held brush and leather shoes. For adult collectors ages 15 and up only. This doll cannot stand alone; a doll stand is included.

Lovely version of Ayumi, but not a match to her Reckless one. Again a close up doll, but she has a cameo ring and the brush (heirloom, Jesse said it has real bristles). Her screening was inspired by Ginza Kyori. ​Her stockings have a fake patterned leather style that looks gorgeous.

​LIlith and Eden are 12.5 inch articulated dolls with rooted hair. Each doll comes dressed in a look composed of multiple pieces that overlay to create modern urban ensembles. Each doll in the set comes with retro-inspired handbags, lace-up high-heeled boots, and tassel earrings. For adult collectors ages 15 and up only. The dolls cannot stand alone; doll stands included.

Another twin gift set. Is it me or are they becoming too ubiquitous? I love bits and pieces from each ensemble but the accessories not so much. Compared to their Reckless versions, here the sisters are tame and casual. Still gorgeous though. They will be available through a lottery from IT DIRECT later this year.  Jesse said that the zipper on Lilith's top is functional and can go all the way down, making it look like a dress. Note that in the poll that followed the presentation, the twins were overwhelmingly  the most popular, Nadia second with less than half the votes, while Ayumi was the least popular choice. As far as how they pick which dolls will be available through lotteries, like the twins now, they said it is quite often a matter of getting a doll to the public in a lower cost than doing it the usual way - I.e through dealers - would entail.

So what do you think about the Heirloom collection? Love it or not? Better than Reckless? Which dolls are you getting? Let me know in the comments. And you should also read the brilliant review Marcela wrote in Kotori Couture for the line, elaborating on so many issues beyond mere fashion commentary. Oh, and she also gives you all,the inspiration behind each outfit- so much Louis Vuitton!
