Adornements is the new East 59th collection by Chris Stoeckel for Integrity Toys!

A new East 59th Collection was presented to W Club members, created of course by Integrity Toys' designer Chris Stoeckel. It is the Adornments Collection and the story-line says that Laird Drake's agency just signed a very lucrative deal with Adorn, one of New York City's most prestigious luxury jewellers, to launch a smashing ad campaign promoting some of their most elaborate jewellery. So you can expect lots of gems and glamour in the designs. Here is Chris talking about the collection:

Most of the dolls are available via Integrity Toys' authorized dealers, Constance Madssen is an IT Direct doll and was only be available via a right-to-buy lottery in the W Club.

The Story:

How lucky can a gal be? Even if it's just for a few fleeting moments, Lady Aurelia Grey is thrilled to have been offered the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to wear one of Adorn Jeweller's most intricate creations!

What a lovely lady! Aurelia looks amazing and the whole set exudes luxury and glam in the proper style of the era the story unfolds. It is great to see different colouring on the make up of these dolls - the purple tones compliment the outfit and the amethyst jewellery perfectly. I would have preferred a fabric stole instead of the fur bolero, bringing the whole set more towards an evening ensemble. Chris said she also references Purple Factor Adèle Makeda from 2003.

Love_Knot_Of_Gold_Victoire_Roux_Dressed_Doll

The problem with most Victoire dolls is that they are gorgeous yet usually look alike so much that I do not get them, missing out on gorgeous outfits like this. The pattern looks more like gingham than houndstooth (as the description says). Love the headband. The bag looks like a Birkin (which was introduced in 1984), which is quite the anachronism, as a Kelly would be much more suitable and era appropriate. Guess Hermès stole the design from someone, right?

Coralynn looks gorgeous again in this lovely outfit, which would have looked even better if it had a hostess skirt over it, much like the first Constance had. Love the bejewelled cigarette holder. I ordered this one immediately.

Right Time Of Night

Laird Drake® Fashion Figure

The East 59th® The Adornments Collection

Edition Size: 750

Expected Ship Date: September 2023

MSRP: $160 + S & H

AVAILABLE ONLY FROM IT DEALERS

Right Time Of Night  Laird Drake dressed doll
Right Time_Of_Night_Laird_Drake_dressed_doll

Head Sculpt: Laird

Body Type: Homme 1.5

Skin Tone: FR White

Hair Colour: Light Brown

Right Time_Of_Night_Laird_Drake_dressed_doll

The Story:

When he signed the deal with Adorn, Laird Drake did not hesitate to immediately reserve a spot on the cover of his favourite gentlemen's magazine for him to appear on in person, because, after all, save for maybe his beau, he knew that he was the only man in New York who could correctly model Adorn's line of ultra-masculine high-end timepieces! The company's lead designers did not even try to argue; there was no point fighting it, Laird Drake was just the most elegant man in the City!

Right Time_Of_Night_Laird_Drake_dressed_doll

Included:

12.75-inch articulated fashion figure with a combination of sleek rooted and flocked hair;

Perfectly tailored tuxedo ensemble, a complete with dinner jacket, trousers, shirt, cummerbund and bow tie;

Patent "leather" dress shoes;

White dress socks;

Removable boutonniere;

Golden watch;

Doll stand;

Certificate of authenticity;

Right Time_Of_Night_Laird_Drake_dressed_doll

Laird looks like Leonardo di Caprio a lot in this new incarnation. Both hairstyle and face-paint are so much different than the first Laird released. He looks very glamorous in his white tie ensemble. The white socks are jarring on this - they are NEVER worn with anything for evening dress, much less a white tie suit. Chris said he wanted to have a break from the pants to the shows, to make the latter pop more but… He added that it is also a nod to Audrey wearing white socks with black loafers in Funny Face, which is something totally different of course. Also cummerbunds are usually left to black-tie dressing or musicians in swing bands when it comes to white tie, a waistcoat is the proper item. At least the pants look like they have two galon as is proper. When are we going to see a proper jacket with tails in these retro era gents? If he had one I would have snatched him in a second. His forehead is low for my taste. EDIT: the production dolls look like they have a much higher hairline than the prototype.

Twilight_In_Blue_Topaz_Constance_Madssen_Dressed_Doll

The Story:

Every major ad campaign needs a show-stopping "piece de resistance" and it is a well-known fact that picking just the right "face" can either make or break any perfectly orchestrated plan. With this in mind, Laird Drake had the genius to cast Constance Madssen as his leading cover girl. With the only diva in town who could rival in beauty with the vibrant blue of the most luxurious topaz ever set in gold at the helm, the East 59th Agency set the tone on how precious jewels should be advertised forever!

Twilight_In_Blue_Topaz_Constance_Madssen_Dressed_Doll

Included:

12-inch articulated doll with long rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes;

Show-stopping multi-layered couture gown, constructed in a jewel-tone brocade, with attached tulle underskirt and a flower ornament attached to the bust line;

Pair of matching brocade panties;

Maxi-length slim skirt, adorned with a bouquet of flowers at the waist (the bouquet is not detachable);

Statement necklace and earring set drenched in "blue topaz";

Black clutch purse;

Black pumps with "blue topaz" ornaments;

Pair of long-manicured hands;

Pair of alternate full-length gloved hands;

Doll stand;

Certificate of authenticity.

Twilight_In_Blue_Topaz_Constance_Madssen_Dressed_Doll

Easily the best doll of the collection, Constance looks amazing here, reminding me a lot of Maria Callas. Appropriately enough, this year is the 100th anniversary from her birth. She also reminds me of a Latina superstar, María Félix, which just had a doll released by Mattel. The gown is spectacular and I love the vinyl gloves, even though the material should have been different to match the era. She has the best jewellery of all the dolls and I think a small, crown-like hair ornament would have completed the ensemble. Even her shoes are bejewelled. Happy to say I won her at the lottery!

Wonder Woman Barbie Collector dolls available to order!

Mattel is pushing ahead with their Wonder Woman releases, right before the premiere of the film next week. After the playline releases, the collector dolls are now available to order - but on backorder till June 1st. That either proves that the available ones are already snapped up or that the company will be late in releasing them but did not want to lose the momentum that the film will create. I really like them and will try to order them all. Let's see them all - description from the Barbie Collector website. The dolls are all Silver Label, i.e. 25,000 or less dolls.

New Wonder Woman dolls from Mattel look amazing!

With Toy Fair coming this weekend, companies keep on releasing previews of the goods that will debut in New York. Mattel of course is a major player and nabbed the opportunity to present their Wonder Woman movie dolls. Entertainment Weekly had the photos and so we can show you what is coming this spring, ahead of the film release June 2. The prices are good, this is no upscale release like the Superman Vs Batman one, so I bet they will be very popular.


Deluxe, sword-wielding Wonder Woman figure ($19.99). Gal Gadot plays her in the film.


Wonder Woman in gold training outfit with bow and arrow ($19.99)


Wonder Woman in classic uniform ($14.99)


Wonder Woman doll in a blue evening gown and a concealed sword ($14.99) - I so want this!


12-inch Diana figurine ($29.99), outfitted for battle and accompanied by her armored black horse


Wonder Woman's mother, Queen Hippolyta, ready-for-battle figurine and horse ($29.99). Connie Nielsen plays the big-screen version of the Amazonian queen. Wonder why they did not make Robin Wright's Antiope as a doll. I'd get that in a heartbeat. I might give this one a try anyway.


Steve Trevor appears in this figurine two-pack ($26.99), which includes Diana. Chris Pine plays the part in real life. Unfortunately the doll has molded legs. I want to get him and will probably change him into another Mattel body.
