Dolly Day 2024 - only one day for the previously week-long IT release extravaganza

This W Club year we only got one Dolly Day instead of the multiple days presentations and reveals of dolls and offers usually organised by IT and the club. The unveils were slim pickings accordingly, with the first one being newly available doll replacement bodies, the second a Misaki release, the third a doll outfit and the fourth a Tulabelle True collection. We are going to focus on the last two reveals here.

Down_For_Glamour_Fashion_Set

This is a Jason Wu ensemble, comprising of a combination of separates from his Fall 2022 RTW collection as seen below:

Whereas I find the real clothes gorgeous, the doll translation leaves me cold. The fit and fall of the fabrics leaves a lot to be desired, especially in the lower parts of both coat and skirt. Kudos for the gorgeous shoes, much better tan those shown in the runway photos.

And unfortunately, we do not get the gorgeous Ayemeline shown wearing the outfit. If she was available, I would order her ASAP. Maybe she can be a club doll in 2025, yes Integrity?

IMPORTANT NOTE: Prototypes shown, final product may vary. Fashion set only; prototype Aymeline doll is not included. For adult collectors ages 15 and up only.

Adored_Tulabelle_True_Doll

The Story:

As the creative director for her brand, Tulabelle had an impossible challenge for the launch party- how do you dress to embody the spirit of the amazing Prismatica collection without taking away the focus and attention from it? She thought she nailed it, but she looked so adorably gorgeous that much of the social media buzz was, of course, focused on her! -Designed by David Buttry

Adored_Tulabelle_True_Doll

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

  • Fun look comprised of a matching metallic blue cropped jacket and mini-skirt with button detail;

  • Certificate of authenticity.

Adored_Tulabelle_True_Doll

This is the Tulabelle does Barbie collection. Seriously, it’s giving Fashionistas vibes so much. And it’s a bit galling to keep getting Tulabelle with brown eyes while darker skinned dolls get green or light blue eyes. Stop doing that IT designers. Nice outfit, as if inspired by her grandma’s ski-bunny days. We have seen the choker and butterfly ring before.

Three_Of_Hearts_Hollis_Hughes_Doll

The Story:

When Tulabelle wants to create a buzz, she absolutely must enlist the help of her friend, Hollis Hughes! Modeling one of the hottest looks from the Prismatica Collection, Hollis managed to charm all of the A-list influencers at the launch party and in doing so, became a trending topic on all the top social media sites! And she may even have stolen a heart or two... or three! -Designed by David Buttry

Three_Of_Hearts_Hollis_Hughes_Doll

Cute but too close to Barbie - even Misaki has had a variation of this type of dress. Can we banish this to fashion purgatory for the next 400 years at least? Love the earrings. The bangs are too severe for the rest of the doll.

Bubble_Up_Lark_Lawrence_Doll

The Story:

Never one to shy away from the spotlight, Tulabelle insisted that Lark Lawrence also attend the launch party and she just knew the perfect look to match her bubbly spirit! Lark created some of the most talked about social media posts from the whole event when she starting blowing bubbles from a wand that spelled out "TRUE" and even inspired a viral social media challenge craze based on that iconic moment! -Designed by David Buttry

Bubble_Up_Lark_Lawrence_Doll

Again a very Barbie look for Lark. These dolls all look like extras from the Barbie film. The eyeshadow looks a bit harsh, especially compared with her lip colour. Love the necklace. Is it me or are these dolls coming with less stuff then the previous TRUE collection?

Precious_Cargo_Cabot_Clark_doll

The Story:

No collection launch would be successful without the glam squad's "not-so-secret" weapon, Cabot Clark! Usually, it's his amazing styling that takes center stage! But his fabulous launch party ensemble, coupled with the gorgeous photos he posted with his better half, Milo Montez, who is always on hand to support his man, really set the internet on fire! -Designed by David Buttry

Precious_Cargo_Cabot_Clark_doll

  • 12.5-inch articulated fashion figure with flocked hair;

Precious_Cargo_Cabot_Clark_doll

This is by far the best doll of this collection, the only one I entered the lottery for. Cabot looks quite different from his previous incarnations, fresh and exciting. He could be part of the Queer Eye team! Love both the outfit and the accessories. his jacket looks like Chanel (especially with the brooch), while the smiley tote makes a good contrast to that. Precious Cargo or saving grace?

Studio 77 is ready to dance the night away!

It looks like this is the year of fashion only releases! After the two Poppy Parker ensembles revealed earlier this year, we now have three new outfits made to order for W Club members. They are designed to fit Fashion Royalty and similar 1:6 scale dolls and created by Integrity Toys designer Chris Stoeckel. Chris changed era for this release and, instead of his usual 1950s fare, he was inspired by fashions worn by celebrities seen at Studio 54 during the late 1970s and early 1980s.

The Story:

Looking for a totally glam way to dress up your favorite dolls? Integrity Toys and designer Chris Stoeckel are thrilled to bring you a series of three sensational outfit sets (sold separately) inspired by the late 1970s New York nightclub scene! Designed to fit Fashion Royalty and other similar 1:6 scale (12.5-inch tall) fashion dolls.

As the velvet rope parted, a wave of anticipation rippled through the crowd, heralding the arrival of the evening's luminaries, New York's entire "who's who", the celebs everyone adored! Adorned in their finest designer creations, they glided into Studio 77, their presence electrifying the air with a palpable aura of glamour. Flashbulbs erupted like fireworks as they made their way to the VIP section, smiles as dazzling as their fame gracing their lips. In that moment, Studio 77 was not just a nightclub—it was a stage, and the fashion statements being made night after night would go on to be remembered forever! -Designed by Chris Stoeckel

Mix-and-match fashion look includes a chartreuse chiffon blouse with blouson sleeves and neck tie detail, high-waist pinstripe pants and matching pinstripe blazer with removable flower;

Luxury clutch purse;

Fedora with chartreuse band;

Golden high-heeled shoes with ankle strap;

Certificate of authenticity;

The_VIP_Section_doll_fashion

This is right up my alley. I love a pinstripe suit for my dolls (and do not own one already), plus the gorgeous green blouse is a winner - with the bra top too! This looks for me will be always related to the famous Helmut Newton photograph of an Yves Saint-Laurent pinstripe suit from 1975. There are images of Bianca Jagger and Diane Von Furstenberg with pinstripes from the era (Diane’s is from Studio 54 no less). I would have preferred that the pant hem touched the ground, but I love it anyway. The fedora is the cherry on top!

Clubbing_The_Night_Away_doll_fashion

The Story:

Amid the pulsating thump of the bass and the kaleidoscope of swirling lights, Studio 77 transformed into a realm of hedonistic delight, where inhibitions were shed like last season's fashion. Bodies swayed in rhythm to the music, a symphony of movement and energy that seemed to transcend time itself. In this swirling vortex of decadence, every moment was a tableau of ecstasy and abandon, as stylish strangers became friends and the night unfolded in a whirlwind of laughter, dance, and fleeting glances. The people, the clothes, the looks, the music... All a testament to the timeless allure of the ultimate nightclub experience! -Designed by Chris Stoeckel.

Clubbing_The_Night_Away_doll_fashion

Included:

Mix-and-match fashion look includes a sexy bordeaux ultra-deep plunge front bodysuit with matching bordeaux wide leg pants;

Matching bordeaux "fur" coat;

"Gold" cuff bracelets;

"Gold" square earrings;

Certificate of authenticity.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Prototypes shown, final product may vary. Fashion only, doll not included. This collectible is meant for adult collectors ages 15 and up only.

Clubbing_The_Night_Away_doll_fashion

 This looks like something Jerry Hall or Patti Hansen (the Rolling Stones original wives club) would have worn back in the day, but I could not find any photo online - she appears with a plunging neckline plus fur coat in some photos but it is a draped V neck dress. I did find this daring outfit that comes close. Again I’d have preferred the pant hem to touch the floor. Gorgeous colour.

Making_An_Appearance_doll_fashion

The Story:

In the pulsating heart of Studio 77, amid a symphony of disco beats and kaleidoscopic lights, there stood a vision of elegance and allure, the epitome of 1970s glamour! Fashionably wrapped in a cascade of chiffon, her beauty shimmered like the night sky, every step a dance of grace and poise. With her stylish designer outfit, she commanded the VIP section with an air of effortless chic, a martini in one hand and the other beckoning admirers like moths to a flame. As she swayed to the rhythm of the music, she embodied the essence of timeless style and the intoxicating allure of Studio 77. -Designed by Chris Stoeckel

This looks like an amalgam of different styles of the era - the Halston flowing dresses and the shiny stretch pants with tube tops. Key looks here by Iman, Olivia Newton-John and Halston. Love the style and especially the chain necklace with a shape we have not seen before.

 I could not find any Kelly Garret outfit from the 70s on-line that resembles this one, but it surely looks like something she (even Jaclyn Smith, the actress portraying her) would have worn back in the day. It looks perfect for the era and for the character, with lots of items and accessories that could even used with other Poppy stuff. Will probably get this for my upgrade Poppy.

Jason Cramer is a very creative guy and has awesome ideas in this outfit - from the textures and colouring to the faux-embroidery skirt print and accessories.

The London Fashion Doll Festival 2019 was amazing - and I was there to experience it!

My second ever fashion doll convention, the London Fashion Doll Festival 2019, was held on the weekend of 8-9 June in London, at the lovely V&A Museum Of Childhood in Bethnal Green, London. I had promised the organisers that I’d join them in this second time of the convention being held, so there I was! The event took place over two days in the Summerly Room Of The museum, plus an adjoining smaller room for the workshop.

Everyone registered upon entry, with an easy scan of our ticket. We were given our goody bags according to our registration level (with or without the exclusive Superdoll convention doll). As I found out, the bag had loads of lovely gifts!  Check them out below.

public.jpeg

The tables were set for eight persons and mine was named Carnaby Girl. I had the honour of being in the same table with Desmond Lingard (from Superdoll), Izzy Parker with her husband Ian, Christina Paul (who runs the Doll Club Of Great Britain website) and of course, from the organisers, Simon Farnworth, his husband Carl and Kim London. What an amazing company to be with! The tables had a folder with two lovely sketches inside by Navdeep Sikand, creator of the lovely Anouk dolls...

FullSizeRender.jpg

...who also offered ten of them for centerpieces on each table! They were raffled off to the attendees near the end of the day, Izzy won ours. The dress and bags are made by Ineke Hintz. The gorgeous base was given along with the doll. If enough requests are made, LFDF will be able to have some for sale. 

Our centerpiece doll! There were blonde and raven versions of the doll.

Everyone else at the table got a small gift as well - i won the miniature chess you see below in the round box. I was lucky enough to receive some lovely gifts from my table mates too - Kim gave me the tea set (donated by her), Carl the amazing jewellery set (by Alla Dolgaleva Rapoport), Sofia the miniature Barbies and the wonderful Thomas Bartholomew Maffei, who came all the way from the USA, gave me the Sparkle Girl outfits!

Izzy had a gorgeous doll with her, the fantastic Glory resin Sybarite from the Los Angeles Convention earlier this year (above) , while Desmond had with him the 12” House Of Zenith Avenue, introduced earlier this year. She’s not wearing her original fashion and looked better IRL than in photos I had seen (below).

IMAGE.JPG

Soon enough, it was time for the workshops to begin. I had registered for both, so my schedule was full! First one was the Face Up workshop by Claudio Coronado, who was introduced by Simon Farnworth. 

IMAGE.JPG

Claudio was very thorough in showing us the steps in how to begin painting a doll’s face. A slideshow helped him show the detailed work he does. 

IMAGE.JPG

We got a great list of all the steps to follow when painting a doll face and helped us understand it is no easy task. Which is why you see the “before” photo of the doll head I had to paint, but not the “after”! 

IMAGE.JPG

The artist at work. This magnifying glass type is perfect for detailed work, I must get one.

IMAGE.JPG

After the end of the workshop, I had the chance to photograph the dolls on display. The Carnaby themed set up was beautiful.

IMAGE.JPG

The items that were going to be raffled off the next day, to support a great cause, the Children With Cancer UK charity, we’re also on display. See the slideshow below. I should also mention that there is an ebay auction with exclusive OOAK creations (dolls or outfits) for LFDF 2019, to benefit the same charity, that ends on the 22nd of June 2019, so go to this link to check the offerings and bid!

If you love Sybarites, you know Desmond is an incredibly talented photographer as well. Some of his magnificent prints were on display and for sale.

IMAGE.JPG
IMAGE.JPG

There was a small exhibition of 60s dolls as well, check them out below in the slideshow.

Emperis Dolls had a beautiful display as well and I got to meet the lovely Marcus and William who make them. They had both their new 12” dolls and their 16” ones on display and for sale. Some amazing OOAK dolls were there too, check out Cher in the slideshow below. The guys told me they almost sold out during the day.

Then it was time for the second workshop of the day: Sofia Kalaitzidi from Microsonik London showed us how to make a flower wig. These were very popular during the 60s in editorials and covers of fashion magazines. Elizabeth Taylor and members of the British Royal family were sporting them often in events.

IMAGE.JPG

Here are the materials Sofia gave us for the wig plus a prepared base for us to work on.

IMAGE.JPG

I managed to go as far as you can see below during the workshop (I’m hopeless with a needle). Some just threaded the larger flowers through the base as they had long wire stems, so no sewing needed, but I wanted a more delicate effect. Will try and finish it home!

And here I am next to the lovely Francesco from Fred-Dolls at the workshop - we had so much fun!

After the workshop ended, it was time for afternoon tea! A proper British tea, with everything necessary - tea, scones, clotted cream, jam, milk, sandwiches, sugar, macaroons and other treats! It was delectable.

During tea time, members of the organising team (l to r: dear Ismail, Simon and Claudio) presented the people dressed in sixties or sixties inspired clothes.

The t-shirts worn by the organisers ate the official convention shirt and all attendees got one!

…and the winner was Olga, who was the most popular - people voted for their favourite contestant by giving them their raffle ticket!

Near the end of the day, it was time for the most anticipated reveal: Desmond unveiled the exclusive convention Sybarite doll!

Her name is Dejah and she is the last Generation X Sybarite doll to be released! The edition is 30 dolls and there are two more available at the LFDF site - hurry up!

You can see my doll below, as I opened the box right after the presentation. The last photo is the official one from Superdoll. She’s like a Motown singer from a girl group the 60s or a Northern Soul singer on a tour in Britain in the late 60s..

And here I am with dear Desmond - this one is for you Shazam Paname! Charles was in China, supervising doll production in the factory.

This was the first day of the London Fashion Doll Festival, full of wonderful people sharing our doll passion, making beautiful memories and seeing so many gorgeous dolls. Next up, the Salesroom day.

The only big gown of the line up, it looks majestic, like something the Queen Of The Night would wear in the Mozart opera The Magic Flute. The turban gives me a New Orleans vibe. I wonder what the shoes look like.

Beautiful shorter two-layer dress with 50s vibes. Lots of embroidery on top of the flower pattern. The absence of colour helps in keeping it from going into kitcsh overdrive.

Metallic trench coats appear regularly in most fashion doll collections, regardless of era or size. This one comes over a sheer embroidered form fitting dress that makes it really stand out.

Another sheer embroidered dress, this time in mermaid shape and fiery red colour. The capelet looks a bit odd combined with it, like it was an afterthought.
