As you might have read or heard by now, this year’s Integrity Toys convention, named LEGENDARY, will be held online only, due to the pandemic. There was a huge kerfuffle with registering for it, as the website crashed under the onslaught of potential attendees and the whole situation was sorted out during the following week. An online convention certainly gives more people the chance to attend, as it is easier for people outside the US, so the amount of people trying to grab hold of a ticket must have been overwhelming (I tried and did not make it, reaching only the pay now button stage). But, W Club members have the opportunity to attend anyway, as they can register for the two (instead of the usual one) upgrade dolls available for the convention, plus they can register for the online W Club event as well, thus gaining access to the online events of the convention too. Sketches of the two dolls have been released and they look elegant, chic and very promising.

I love everything about this doll! Elegant and very Parisian haute couture - a proper lady who lunches. Both dresses reference the Petite Robe dresses from 2004 - this is from the La Petite Robe Blanche outfit available at the MFD FR 2004 convention (see above).

This one is of course based on La Petite Robe Noire outfit from 2004, which is still quite sought after by collectors as the dress comes with four different pairs of shoes, four bags plus the scarf and glasses, making it more versatile. I just wish they had used the original Veronique sculpt as it is the 25th IT anniversary convention and it would make a fitting tribute.
