Dolly Days 4 give us Wild Feeling Rayna as a W Club doll!

While previous Dolly Days offerings were met with mixed feelings by W Club members, the 4th day met with almost unanimous applause. And that was because it was a beautiful version of Rayna Ahmadi ooered to collectors as the 3rd W Club Doll of 2020. Rayna has not appeared since 2018 so she was highly anticipated, as she was absent from the convention offerings last month. they call this a mini giftset, to justify the price, while the only extra things are a mini skirt and an extra pair of shoes. Micro giftset would be more close to it. She’s probably going to be a very popular club doll.

What a beautiful doll! I love Rayna in most of her incarnations and this one is lovely. Her face in this skin tone and overall colours looks amazing, despite the strong lip liner, which is not to my taste. the darker skin helps to soften that a lot though. The outfit has the vinyl skinny pants shown in Saint Laurent and Balmain for Fall/Winter 2020, with the overall silhouette being closet to the Saint Laurent offerings. She’d look much better in their fur coat though. The bag is the popular Bottega Veneta Shoulder Pouch, one of the It bags lately. Unfortunately it looks like the $175 price is going to be a mainstay. Sigh.

Dolly Days 3: A night at the opera!

The third day of Integrity Toys’ "Dolly-Days" brings us two more dolls in the series created to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the partnership between Integrity Toys and former doll designer prodigy, now well known fashion designer, Jason Wu. He is paying homage to the two characters that started it all for him, "The Originals" Véronique Perrin® and Adèle Makéda®*. Based on an original concept Jason imagined just for these two iconic characters, they are going to a La Traviata opera performance at the famous La Fenice theatre in Venice. the two dolls are sold separately and are a W Club members only lottery opportunity. Avanti maestro!

Item #12313

The Originals

Véronique Perrin® Dressed Doll

The Jason Wu 20th Anniversary Collection

Edition Size: 450

Expected Ship Date: Spring 2021

Price: $175.00 + Shipping/Handling.

*W Club Right-to-buy Lottery Offer*

Head Sculpts: Véronique 1.0

Body Type: FR 6.0

Foot Sculpt: High-Heeled

Skin Tone: FR White

Hair Colors: Light Blond

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

Velvet Touch: No

Quickswitch: No

Included:

12.5" fully articulated doll with rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes;

Delicate trumpet shape, Jason Wu original sleeveless lace gown;

Glamorous, sheer cape with oversized bow detail at the neckline;

Dramatic custom embroidered lace mask;

Faux "patent-leather" slingback high-heeled shoes with glitter strap detail;

"Diamond" stud earrings;

Two pairs of hands;

Doll stand;

Certificate of authenticity.

Deceprrivly simple at first sight, the dolls reveal their bias cut spiral lace dresses upon closer inspection, not an easy feat, unless the lace is sold like this and the dress is cut in the usual way. I love the embroidered masks, that look so very much like those from Valentino Haute Couture Fall/Winter 2009 collection. The lovely cape is a very classic choice for a big opera gala, especially in places like the mythical La Fenice in Venice, where a very young and almost unrecognisable Maria Callas performed for the first time La Traviata. Even the hairstyle is a classic one for Callas. As is the tradition for Jason Wu dolls lately, the accessories are more than minimal - two stud earrings and the shoes, plus the aforementioned mask. A clutch (better yet, a minaudière) should have been included. The $175 price is less than the $200 Wu dolls command at retail. In fact it is the same price asked for Korinne in the Maison Collection (Vero was $160 then). not cheap, but not that expensive either. The two payment instalments for the lottery winners surely help. I’m not entering the lottery for her because I really do not like the way her lips are painted outside their natural lip line. They look filled to the brim and that is no look for Veronique in my books.

Item #12314

The Originals

Adèle Makéda® Dressed Doll

The Jason Wu 20th Anniversary Collection

Edition Size: 450

Expected Ship Date: Spring 2021

Price: $175.00 + Shipping/Handling.

*W Club Right-to-buy Lottery Offer*

Head Sculpts: Adèle 2.0

Hair Colors: Black

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

Velvet Touch: No

Quickswitch: No

Included:

12.5" fully articulated doll with rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes;

Glamorous, sheer cape with oversized bow detail at the neckline;

Dramatic custom embroidered lace mask;

Faux "patent leather" slingback high-heeled shoes with glitter strap detail;

"Diamond" stud earrings;

Two pairs of hands;

Doll stand;

Certificate of authenticity.

Adele looks so much better than Veronique with this look - I love her face and the austere hairstyle, combined with the cape, brings to mind Naomi Campbell in Valentino Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2019 - although the outfit is quite different, the silhouette, fabric and styling are similar. The same comments about accessories and price can be said here as for Veronique. But she is definitely the best of them and I entered for her. Wish me luck.

The faces on the packaging look like Nicole Kidman and Olivia Newton John to me LOL! Special kudos to Alain for the packaging.

I’m not collecting the line but these do look adorable, especially Shana. The 80s styling is incredible and really fits the era. Vaugh did a really good job with these. I bet lots of collectors are going to be after them and the limited edition will sell out quickly.

Holiday season begins with Integrity Toys' Dolly Days!

The last few years, Integrity Toys’ Dolly-Days signal the start of the holiday season for fashion doll collectors. This year, despite the pandemic, they are here again to bring us various dolls and assorted items, lifting our spirits up and setting credit cards on fire. The first reveal, on Monday 15th of December is none other than Poppy Parker's frenemy Ginger Gilroy with her canine companion, Cinnamon. W Club members are given the exclusive guaranteed opportunity to pre-order the "Ginger & Cinnamon: Holiday At Home" IT Direct gift set, created by IT designer David Buttry. It does not count as one of the five (5) W Club exclusives promised at registration.

Having a Christmas Poppy is not unusual, but having Ginger is a first - we were expecting her to appear during Dolly Days as it was hinted at during the convention presentations. And here she is. Price slightly increased due to the accessories, although I would have preferred a second outfit in their place. The top is the only thing bothering me, as the fur trim looks out of scale for this garment and not very comfortable. Love the pants. I like the sculpt and this version, the second one ever, is beautiful. One pet peeve - why not a japan or cream tone with this hair colour? it would have made her so much more impressive! I have a dog like this already from other Poppy sets, so it does not make a difference to me, but the record player and records are simply adorable.

The eagerly anticipated Integrity Toys 25th Anniversary Agnes Von Weiss does not live up to expectations

The official banner of the Integrity Toys 2020 25th anniversary Legendary convention, held virtually this year, and also the image on all doll boxes for the event, was a beautiful Agnes Von Weiss doll, which drew admiring comments from most participants and was expected to appear in some form during the event. It was announced instead that the doll would be produced as the company’s official 25th Anniversary doll for all club members. Everyone was delighted and people started speculating on when and how the doll would be making its debut. Yesterday, the W Club sent the email announcing the beginning of the preorders for the doll, along with a series of promotional photos of the prototype. The collectors’ reactions: legendary!

Item # 91503

Legendary Status

Agnes Von Weiss™ Dressed Doll

Official Integrity Toys 25th Anniversary Doll

Limited Edition: TBD

Estimated Arrival: Late Spring 2021

Retail Price: $175.00

**IT DIRECT EXCLUSIVE PRE-ORDER**

Head Sculpt: Agnes

Body Type: FR 6.0

Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Skin Tone: FR White

Hair Color: Mahogany

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

Quickswitch: No

Included:

12.5-inch fully articulated doll with rooted hair styled in an intricate ponytail, as well as hand-applied eyelashes;

Ultra-luxurious mirror "jeweled" gown with dramatic golden yellow asymmetric overskirt and draped accents;

Bespoke "jewel" clutch purse;

Especially designed "stocking-shoes", micro-crystal covered stockings with built-in shoes;

High-contrast faux-sapphire adorned jewelry set (earrings and two assorted rings);

Pair of hands with modern French manicure;

Alternate pair of grip hands;

Doll stand;

Certificate of authenticity;

There’s a huge reaction to the doll and most of it is not positive. People feel disappointed from the reveal, saying that the make up of the doll is not as vibrant as the convention promo, that the hairdo is too severe, that the dress is a mess and so on and so forth. I would say that it is only natural to have all these reactions: when you build the anticipation for a doll with a heavily retouched photo (see below) for such a long time and then present the same doll in a different lighting and by a different photographer (as the doll designer Jessy Ayala mentioned on his Instagram post about the doll), it is not a good business practice and will surely cause a negative reaction. If people had seen these promo photos first and then the one retouched and used for the convention promotional material and packaging, it would have been quite a different beast altogether, aesthetics notwithstanding.

I find the whole look a bit of a mess actually. Too many different things vying for attention and trying to fit together. The mix does not work for the most part. It takes a special talent to juggle so many different elements together successfully and frankly, it is missing here. And with an asking price of $175.00, I’m not so sure I want to give in. The doll is actually beautiful and I think the make up colours and hair colour all work together well. The dress is garish and over-designed. It looks like someone took two or three different dresses, cut them up and sew them together - Galliano can do that with a varying degree of success, Rei Kawakubo usually does it even better. But here it falls flat, no matter how many rhinestones are used to blind one in submission. Ralph and Russo designs are already overboard by themselves, let alone combining two looks (here and here) together.

And then, there’s the price. This is not a mini gift set and yet it retails more than any convention doll, most of which are way more stylish and accessorized than this one. Is it the crystals? I will just end with this: NAP Aymeline is a doll worth her $295.00 - this one does not look like it does justify her $175.00, And if this is going to be the price of FR dolls come 2021, with the pandemic going on and people trying to control expenses, it might not be such a good business move at all.
