The wait has been long for the official W Club membership exclusives to start appearing. Usually, the first one made her appearance by August at least. Not this year though - it took three more months to finally have her in our emails. Integrity Toys and designer Jessy Ayala give us "Bohème" Eden Blair, a gift set of a doll and two outfits. Lets see if she matches her sister from earlier this year.

*The tariff surcharge is the portion of tariffs in US dollars that will be passed on to the customers. The estimate of the portion to be passed onto customers above is based on a 30% tariff rate at the time that this product is received by Integrity Toys out of Customs. We know tariff discussions are ongoing, but since we don't have new confirmation, we have used what we do know to calculate. If the tariffs are lower at that time, the surcharge will also be lowered. If the tariffs are eliminated at that time, there will be no surcharge. If the tariffs are higher at that time, the surcharge will likely be adjusted higher. This amount above is provided as a courtesy to calculate the cost based on the information and tariff levels as they are today, but are subject to the aforementioned changes. Please contact Integrity Toys if any of this is unclear before pre-ordering.
The Story:
Véronique Perrin was normally calm, cool and collected, but these days she was frazzled. She was trying to take the family business to the next level, but it seemed as though there was someone stirring up trouble at every turn. While W Cosmetic’s Absinthe campaign with Elyse Jolie was a huge hit, her secret billionaire boyfriend’s presence at the show was a distraction. The rumors that Alexandre Beaumont-Durand, who was already invested in Agnes’s AvW venture, was also taking a stake in W was complete b.s., and Véronique was having to explain that over and over again to staff, vendors and retail partners. Now, Elyse was in a panic, as the tabloids had also linked Alex to Eden Blair, whom he was sitting next to at the show. Véronique Perrin texted her words of comfort.
I am certain that Eden is not involved with A.
Elyse was still suspicious.
Can you do some recon, please, and confirm?
Véronique sighed and agreed. “What am I, a private investigator now, too?” as she made her way down the hall to Eden’s office.
Eden had been a bit embarrassed but also a bit intrigued by the coverage. Of course, she didn’t know anything about Alex’s ties to Elyse, but she did know his reputation. He wasn’t really her type—but he was very handsome with his chiseled features, steely gaze and very fit body. “But really,” she thought to herself. “He’s too old. He’s too much of a player… But he is yummy...” Her stomach was aflutter as she thought about him and his cheeky smile. That feeling was quickly interrupted with an exasperated Véronique flying through Eden’s office door.
“Please tell me these headlines aren’t true?” Véronique pleaded, holding up a few papers. “This guy is already a pain in my backside…”
Eden jumped in. “Of course not! He just sat next to me thinking I was Lilith and the paparazzi just ran with it.”
“Thank goodness,” Véronique said, relieved. “Speaking of your sister, she’s a lovely girl, but please don’t take any of your work home with you where she might see. Agnes is already copying a bunch of our ideas—we don’t need her to get an early peek!”
Véronique was interrupted by an assistant at Eden’s door carrying a huge bouquet of flowers that was so ginormous it obscured her head and half her body. Eden’s eyes got huge. “Are these for me?” she asked, perplexed. Eden grabbed the attached card, which read:
I hope all that press wasn’t too much of a burden. Xo Alex
Véronique was not amused. “Who is that from?”
Eden turned around, her cheeks flushed a bright red.
Véronique slapped her forehead with her hand and sighed…

Yes, we are receiving news for the first of our five W Club exclusives really late this year. No official reason for this has been given. I will not speculate but it definitely does not look good for the club. We will be getting too many dolls into a short period of time and this, combined with the really expensive pricing, will be trouble for our wallets - that is, if we go ahead and order. Boho chic is not really a favourite fashion look for me. It smacks of cultural appropriation (mostly white ladies dressing up in items picked from various indigenous cultures from all over the world) and it is not really creative or practical for everyday life. It takes quite an effort to look like you did not throw on everything you found in both your grandmothers’ closets from their flower child years - and that’s the best case scenario. Nowadays, it usually looks more like BoBo (Bourgeois Bohemian), both US and French versions, which, again, to me are anathema.
So how about the doll? She’s bland, as most of the twins really are, with that generic, almost flat featureless face. It’s no accident that the best versions of them are the ones with more extreme make up and hair styles; they need them to look good. The outfit is (again) from the Chloé runway, this time the Fall/Winter 2025 collection. It is not an exact look, more like a combination of elements from various outfits of that collection, plus the now famous letter belt, here spelling out the doll’s name instead of the brand. The second outfit is a pair of patchwork jeans with a tank top. Pet peeve: sporting athletic underwear under a lace dress is a major faux pas in my books.Nice bag (Chloé of course).
You can see the doll rotating in the video below:
P. S. Despite the mention in the club email that they give members an extra-long pre-order window until November 10th, it is false advertising: we got the same days for our first W Club doll last year (10 days) and even more for the second one, later in the same month (12 days). So much for the extra long window. Also, Véronique is not behaving like a French lady at all in the story line. Her reaction to Eden’s affair is more US than French.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Prototypes shown, the final product may vary. Background and props are not included. This collectible is meant for adult collectors ages 15 and up only.
