The new Meteor collection is a collaboration: Integrity Toys x Jason Kramer Designs!

Through a video presentation, Integrity Toys and the W Club unveiled a brand new Integrity Toys X Jason Kramer Designs collaboration. We knew that we would be seeing such a collaboration for this line soon, but now with which designer it would be. it was a welcome surprise as Jason is not only a great person but a very talented designer as well - we have already seen his work before on IT releases, one of them recently for Poppy Parker. For those who just discovered Jason, here is a brief bio:

Jason Kramer is a freelance costume designer and illustrator, living in Ashland, Oregon. He's been collecting and designing for fashion dolls since 2002. His favorite designers include Alexander McQueen, Valentino, and Jean-Paul Gaultier, among others.

The four dolls (two of them combined into a gift set) will be sold through a W Club lottery. Judging by the reactions during the presentation and social media, there will not be any left!

The Story:

With the album launch fast approaching, the Meteor was transformed into a vibrant celebration zone, thanks to its resident mixologist, Navia Phan. A master of her craft and Taliyah Harper's closest friend, Navia had created a dazzling array of cocktails that were as eclectic and captivating as the world beats on Taliyah’s new album. Each drink was an artistic triumph—infused with exotic flavors and garnished with imaginative touches that perfectly captured the spirit of the music.

But Navia’s magic didn’t stop at the bar. As the heartbeat of the party, she orchestrated an atmosphere of electrifying excitement and unrestrained joy. Her energy was contagious, ensuring that every guest felt the pulse of the night’s rhythm. With her flair and creativity setting the scene, the launch party was not just an event but a thrilling spectacle—a night where Taliyah’s music and Navia’s concoctions blended into an unforgettable celebration that would be remembered for years to come.

Included:

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

• Sexy red mini-dress with front cut-out and oversized removable back bow detail;

I have never warmed up to Navia, no matter the styling or style she was released with. She mostly looked cartoon-y and half-finished to me - until now. Dialling the oomph factor up by 100%, Jason managed to make her sultry and fierce, without looking cartoon-y. The dress is hot (the red colour he picked is no accident) and the accessories compliment it perfectly. And that sharp geometric bob is perfection. Anna W asked for the hair stylist’s name.

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: FR Black

MSRP: $185 + S & H

Sales method: This is being sold to W Club members via a W Club right-to-buy lottery offer. Should any product remain after fully placing the lottery, it would then be made available to the public and for purchasing extras at the MSRP.

The Story:

When Zuri Okoty heard that Taliyah Harper was about to release her debut album, she jumped at the chance to host the launch party at her nightclub, the Meteor. Convincing the right people to make it a high-profile event was a breeze for Zuri, who pulled some strings to bring in key players from the music industry. As Taliyah's world beats filled the room for the first time, it was clear that Zuri's instincts were spot on. The industry’s top executives were impressed and agreed that Taliyah's music deserved heavy rotation. This endorsement meant only one thing: Taliyah's career was on the brink of soaring to new heights. And Miss Okoty couldn't have been more thrilled!

Included:

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

• Stunning custom-printed crop top with exaggerated puff sleeves and matching floor length mermaid skirt;

• Matching custom-printed head wrap;

• Adorable lip shaped purse with "gold" chain strap;

• Hot pink and teal strappy high-heeled shoes with back zipper detail;

• Golden "jeweled" chandelier earrings;

• Intricate statement collar necklace;

• Set of thin "gold" bangle bracelets;

• Set of thicker "gold" bangle bracelets;

• Set of "gold" and "emerald" bracelets;

• Studded "gold" bracelet with "emerald" bauble;

• "Gold" cuff bracelet;

• Pair of long-manicure hands;

• Alternate pair of hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

Zuri is probably my favourite sculpt of the Meteor line and especially when they paint her with a gap tooth - which here she has again. Add to that the distinctly inspired by her African roots look and you get a winner. What a fantastic doll. The sheer amount of jewellery makes her a moving target! Can you not love the lip-shaped bag? Dali’s surrealist Mae West sofa and Lulu Guiness’ clutch came instantly to mind.

The Story:

Stylist Keiron Morel beamed with pride as he walked the red carpet with his dear friend Taliyah Harper on the night of her highly anticipated album launch. Her debut, simply titled Taliyah, was a masterful blend of world beats designed to accentuate her irresistibly sultry vocals.

The evening was a resounding success, thanks to the impeccable planning by Zuri Okoty and her team at the Meteor. The event’s flawless execution, combined with the enthusiastic praise from industry heavyweights, promised a bright future for Taliyah’s career.

From Taliyah’s stunning look to the mesmerizing music and the glamour of every guest, the night was a visual and auditory feast. The press couldn’t get enough of the spectacle, and the buzz surrounding the event ensured it would be remembered for years to come.

• Oversized "jewel" ring;

• Keiron's Look:

• Muscle revealing sleeveless top with open back and contrasting print trim;

• Black "fur" wrap;

• "Silver" chain brooch with cloisonné details;

• "Silver" ear cuff;

• Alternate pair of black gloved grip "Homme" hands;

Isn’t this a fabulous pair? A star and her stylist.I’m not a big fan of salmon pink - too many bad 80s memories - but Jason has managed to make it work here, combined with her aquamarine accessories and jewellery. As for the doll, Taliya here reminds me a bit of the Italian diva Mina in her youth (check the Balenicaga-Mina collab coming up). Kieron is fierce - both the doll and the outfit are out of this world. Maybe I would have done his eyes a bit more smokey, to enhance his look. Absolute perfection.

Check out the video of the rotating dolls below. Did you manage to get any of the dolls?

The Meteor club has a Roaring 20s remix moment

Last week w club members received an email about the unveiling of new dolls - and this past weekend we indeed had it - albeit without a live presentation. A new Meteor collection was revealed, with three dolls, two of them sold by dealers and one that will be available through lottery for the right to buy. This time the inspiration is the “decadent” 20s, with the clothes and styling inspired by that glamorous decade. Having already had a previous Meteor collection done with a retro inspiration again (the 70s, which I must remind you, were very much influenced by the 20s in fashion, at least in the first half of the decade), it is a bit jarring to still cling to the past for inspiration, especially when the first Meteor collection proved that contemporary fashion is its strong point (and Vaughn’s best). With the fashion buzz around emerging black designers stronger than ever, and their fashions making waves across the media, social or not, it is a pity that we do not get current trends but instead rehashes of past decades, no matter if they’re beautiful or not. Please give us some inspirations from Peter Do, Christopher John Rogers and Pyer Moss, with some Zerina Akers styling next time.

I still don’t like Navia’s sculpt. Her face has a weird shape with a very large and angular bottom part that does not click with me. She does fit the era with this hairstyle and make up pretty well and is definitely an improvement on herfirst appearance, but I still can’t bring myself to buy her. Her dress is gorgeous though. If I can find it separately, I might get it. The veil over the hat looks weird in the photo worn by the doll, but the rest of the accessories are awesome. Should have come with a small jewelled bag though.

Easily the best doll of the collection, Zuri once again steals the spot. She reminds me so much of the Dior Haute Couture 1997 collection, both dress and doll styling, that I could not resist in the end and pre-ordered her. I love Zuri anyway and especially when she’s painted with her tooth gap, so she’s a winner overall. Her hair colour with the afro that is styled at the front like 20s “vagues” (french for waves) is really impressive.

Amirah Majeed™ Dressed Doll

Meteor™: The Roaring 20's Remix Collection

Limited Edition: 1000 Dolls

Expected Ship Date: Winter 2021/22

Suggested Retail Pricing: $160.00

*Available from Authorized Dealers Only*

Head Sculpt: Amirah Majeed

Body Type: Meteor 1.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: Sun-kissed

Quickswitch: No

12.5-inch fully articulated vinyl doll with long, two-toned rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes;

Asymmetrical, micro-sequined cocktail dress with "gold" organza insets and "gold" chain detail at the bust line;

Elaborate crown accessory;

Three cuff bracelets;

One bangle bracelet;

Intricately sculpted golden clutch purse;

Champagne glass accessory;

Sparkling high-heeled shoes;

Pair of long manicured hands;

Alternate pair of grip hands;

Doll stand;

Certificate of authenticity.

Amirah looks better than ever here but the hair colour is a major deal breaker for me. It gives her a cartoon-y vibe, but it is not a Cruella one, unfortunately. She would have looked so much better in the dark colour alone. The dress gives me a cheap vibe, despite the embroidered look - it is probably the chains at the front. If she had a huge chain necklace instead, it might have looked better. Or if the dress used the fabric that Montaigne Market Elyse did. And what’s with the crowns? This one looks more fit for a Russian royal from the pre-revolution era than a 20s flapper. Gorgeous bag, shoes and jewellery though.

Integrity Toys Mini Capsule Collections 2020 reveal pt..3: Meteor - Le Chic

The third mini capsule collection revealed in Saturday’s Integrity Toys event was Meteor. Vaughn presented two gorgeous dolls - one is a new character and one was Zuri in a smashing new look. Both are available for dealers, but with the limited editions, they might sell out quickly. I’m betting this would have given us even more gorgeous dolls had Vaughn been able to make a full collection with all the line’s characters. The 70s inspiration is a great fit both to the designer’s talent and the line and it shows.

I am willing to bet that Navia’s sculpt is a failed Colette 2.0 attempt used as a new character - they are practically twins. Not loving the head shape or the print. The glasses are cute but she is missing a bag. I’m puzzled by the use of FR body instead of Nu Face, which would fit the character much better IMHO. She might be coming out but she’s definitely not coming home. The dress is almost an exact copy (boots and all) of the opening number from Fausto Puglisi’s Fall 2019 RTW collection - the print was inspired by an Ottoman carpet he picked up at Istanbul’s Grand Bazaar, as Puglisi said back then.

This is Donna Summer in doll form! When asked, Vaughn said he got inspiration for other 70s singers too (the Every Woman title surely refers to the Chaka Khan song I’m Every Woman) but she looks so much like Donna with that make up and hairstyle and the open mouth, it’s uncanny. I’m happy I got confirmed for her, she’s Hot Stuff! There is a confusion about her outfit: during the presentation, Vaugh said it is one piece, but the description from IT says blouse and palazzo pants. Will update with more info when available.
