Della Dazzles
Well it’s a new month and I have a new muse. Rather..I have a couple of new muses. First off, I received the new East 59th ladies from Integrity Toys designed by Chris Stoeckel a couple weeks back and finally had a chance to debox them. Beautifully tailored clothing as one would expect from Mr Stoeckel. He never disappoints. My must have from this particular capsule collection was Miss Della Roux. Here are the promotional photos.

The original gown pictured is based, I believe, on a 1954 Dior gown.
And I had seen another rendition in a paler color that I was inspired by…
I adored the fur cuffs on this one so I set about making some for Miss Della. I had some trim I had acquired years ago when in NYC with friends. We spent an afternoon shopping for embellishments and trim. Such great memories so I was happy to be able to use this recycled fur trim I found on something.
Hope this blog post finds you all healthy and fully vaccinated or soon to be vaccinated.

Poppy at the Flower Market
When I started making 1/6 flowers, it was with this diorama in mind. I wanted to do a French style flower market. I started with 1/6 roses and then just kind of took off into other types and varieties. I have not stopped. I work predominately in paper. All kinds of paper from tissue through crepe paper and into thicker cardstock. Each flower type has it’s different personality that requires a different structure. That is part of the beauty of discovery when crafting I suppose. For me, there is a photo shoot concept at the end that drives me. I have had some really epic fails and also..I am happy to report…some extraordinary successes.
Part of the project for this flower market was the construction of the flower shop window. That was accomplished with foam core board, stucco spray paint , plastic and dollhouse molding. I figured out how to make the little French flower pails out of paper. This glorious Dior inspired suit by Chris Stoeckel for Integrity Toys fits Poppy beautifully. It just needed a French flower shop backdrop.

The NU. Face® Collection
2021 W Club Upgrade

Bring on the houndstooth I say!! I love that Jessy did this in pale lavender too. It’s glorious with Nadja’s cinnamon hair and a first for IT in using this hair color with this facemold. The larger purse is inspired by Dior’s book tote
And small bag is inspired by JACQUEMUS “ Le Chiquito” bag
The outfit is another IT homage to Alaïa with an update to the jacket…fabulous translation!!
A definite must for any NuFace collector. This one is going in my cart for sure!!
Bijou
Elyse Jolie™ Dressed Doll
The Fashion Royalty® Collection
2021 W Club Upgrade Doll
*$140; (This doll will have a $25 non-refundable deposit due immediately, with a $115 + shipping/handling/taxes balance due at shipping time, approximately in Summer 2021).
Edition Size: TBD
Head Sculpt: Elyse
Body Type: FR 6.0
Foot Sculpt: High-heeled
Skin Tone: A-Tone
Hair Color: Deep Sable
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied
Quickswitch: No
Ok..let’s start with the positives. I adore this Elsye face mold in A-tone skin color and sleek sophisticated updo with purple eye shadow. I adore the chunky gold accessories and emerald clasp bag. The shoes are ok. The dress…ummmm….urrrr….I got nothin’ . This is a rare miss for the super talented Jessy Ayala. I don’t get the gown at all. Maybe it just couldn’t translate in this scale well? If it were a two piece thing I could live with it and figure I would just use the top with a different skirt. Regrettably…it’s all one piece so the entire outfit is out for me. I have absolutely no idea where even to start to look for inspiration on this gown …and to be honest….no real desire to. Sorry Jessy. Love the doll, not the dress. Will buy just for the doll so it’s still a win for IT.
Pink Lemonade
Poppy Parker® Dressed Doll
Poppy Parker® in Palm Springs Collection
2021 W Club Upgrade Doll
$140; (This doll will have a $25 non-refundable deposit due immediately, with a $115 + shipping/handling/taxes balance due at shipping time, approximately in Summer 2021).
Edition Size: TBD
Head Sculpt: Poppy Parker
Body Type: PP 1.5
Foot Sculpt: High-heeled

Quickswitch: No
You had me at the pink hair David…you had me at the pink hair. Ohhhh my! Poppy is in Palm Springs this year according to designer David Buttry and she is fabulous in lemon and pink for this first design of the season. I adore the hair but the dress design is a close second. The blue eyes and berry kissed lips are giving me life here..the whole thing is just
Yep…she is definitely going in my shopping cart…no question.
So There you have it. Three fabulous upgrade dolls and a whole lot of perks for the base membership. Frankly, this membership is worth it for the chance to go to the convention alone. For those who like to attend, you need to be a WClub member because the convention sells out every year with just WClub members. The upgrade dolls are extra above and beyond the $50. It has been amazing to see this club grow each and every year. Love it.

Integrity Toys 2018 Reveal: East 59th Cocktail Collection
Even though the actual collection is not called the “cocktail” collection the designer Chris Stoeckel affectionately referred to it as such in Saturday’s webinar…so I’m going with that. Chris shared that his inspiration was Dior and the fashions of the 1950’s. He also shared that the fabrics he found really guided him on this collection. I have to say that nobody tailor’s a garment like Chris. His attention to that is impeccable and one of the reasons I adore this line so much.
Cocktails for Men

Available Via Dealers
Edition Size: 400

Hair Color: Raven
Eyelashes: No
Quickswitch: No
Oh my word!! You had me at the polka dot ascot but then you had to go and add a cheroot!!! ( technically it’s probably a cigar because it is indeed tapered at one end but…cheroot sounded better to me). Add in the plain black banded watch ( in my mind it’s Cartier) and that cognac snifter and its fabulousness. Again, the details in these collections have me obsessed. Truly wonderful.
Tangier Tangerine
Constance Madssen® Doll
The East 59th® Collection
Approx. Ship Date: September

That tangerine cocktail actually looks kind of good! Wish it existed in real life to try! LOVE the period accurate color explosion going on here. I also love how Chris gives us two different looks in his designs that improves the playability and versatility of these dolls. Well done! That vibrant orange hat and gloves will be a favorite addition to my collection along with the yummy suit!
Mai Tai Swizzle
Constance Madssen® Doll
The East 59th® Collection

Quickswitch: No
Ok…so Mai Tai’s are a particular favorite of mine given my family and I vacation in Hawaii a lot. It’s no surprise that the name alone had me interested. The doll itself with her auburn locks and swooped bangs are exquisite. I adore the boat necked striped day dress as well as the sunny short set and jacket. Add in those fantastic wedge sandles and charm braclet and this doll has it all. The Mai Tai helps too.
Turquoise Sparkler
Evelyn Weaverton® Doll
The East 59th® Collection
Approx. Ship Date: September
Retail: $135.00 US

What is it about this color?!!! I just go gooey inside. I am not the only one either…there have been studies done on this Tiffany blue color and it’s just one that people have a strong response to on average. I can’t even quantify how much I love this gown . The elegance of it plus the grace of a brunette Evelyn wearing it just makes my heart sing. The story card for this doll states that the gold gift box is empty for a reason…there is another story there to be told. Looks like a champagne bottle box to me . This was first doll in the shopping cart for me from this collection but frankly…they all ended up in the cart by the end of the presentation.
The Americano
Evelyn Weaverton® Doll
The East 59th® Collection
Approx. Ship Date: September

Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied
Quickswitch: No
First question…where is the Americano cocktail?? LOL! Guess she knocked it back and is well on her way or perhaps that is where she is headed after a day of shopping. I have to admit, my first thought was not a cocktail but in fact a cup of “Americano” coffee when I saw the name of this doll. Don’t judge…I’m from Seattle and coffee is a religion here. So my thinking was a delicate cup of espresso would have been perfect here. I’m planning on adding it. Drinks aside, the accessories are to die for. That Birkin bag…faint. The shoes with the cut outs…swoon. The additional white shirt to wear under the sheath….brilliant!! The little box of cannoli…ok I’m done…who do I throw the money at for this doll.
Blue Gold

Hair Color: Copper Penny Red
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied
Quickswitch: No
She’s back!! And…fortified with a bottle of fine gin. 
LOL…ok so I was very surprised (pleasantly so) to see Miss Victoire making her comeback before the IT convention. Technically she will indeed arrive after the convention but to have pictures of the new face mold before the convention was nice. I’m not sure how I am feeling about this new “updated” face mold. She is definitely younger and I’m still trying to figure out how I feel about it. The fashion though is wonderful! How yummy is this brocade?!! Absolutely love that she is a redhead in this version and coupled with this blue brocade…fabulousness.
Love the playability and wonderful accessories in this line. The vibrant colors and rich storylines work well together. Hats off to Mr. Chris Stoekel and his eye for details and historical couture fashion. How he manages to translate some of the iconic 1950’s fashion trends into 1:6 scale is beyond me. He has a gift.
Last line..Fashion Royalty Collection reveal post will be up this afternoon.

From boots to bag, this one has it all for me. The glasses were a nice detail add and the thing that pushed me over the edge and got me to add this one to my wish list from my dealer. For me, the added value was that he is sooooo Pacific Northwest. Had to try and buy.
So that wraps up the images from The Industry Lovesick Collection. While it is not what I collect, I loved the vibrant color combos and nod to recent Gucci runway shows. I also loved all the additional little details Mr Buttry added in…particularly the glasses. I don’t know about other collectors but for THIS collector, it’s those little “value adds” that push me from a “ well I like it” to an “I have to have it”. As a collector, it makes me so happy…as a business person, it makes sense as a business move. All around good!
Also, it was really nice to see David bringing back some favorite characters from discontinued lines. It shows he is listening to the collectors and that is always a good thing.
Ok, so if you are interested in any of these dolls and you are not part of the WClub and already contacted your dealers, you need to act fast. These dolls are going quickly and some may already be sold out. If you don’t know where to check for dealers go to the link below.

A Spring Fling
Reluctant to tear down the set from the previous shoot, I decided to give Miss Tullabelle a chance to model. I just had to show off this amazing head of delicious golden curls. I also received this exquisite Matisse creation by Brenda Visaya and had to use it. It’s funny because I took the photos of Tullabelle posing up against the white arbor I had created. When I looked at the images in post processing…she just seemed too refined. I wasn’t completely happy with them which was a complete shock for me because that is the look I normally go for when editing photos. I woke up the next morning and did a few more shots showing a more flirtatious Tullabelle and in the end…these are the shots I am most happy with. Go figure 
Model: Integrity Toys “You Better Werk” Tullabelle
Dress and gloves: Brenda Visaya – Matisse on Etsy
Hat: Rogier Corbeau of Dutch Fashion Doll World
Shoes: Integrity Toys “Wouldn’t It Be Loverly” Eden

Meet You at East 59th!
Wow!! Wow, Wow, Wow is all I can say of Integrity Toys newest product line. For those of us who have been waiting for the return of our beloved Victoire Roux…the waiting just got a little sweeter. While we did not get a new Victoire, we did receive some of her friends and this new world that IT has created looks to be amazing! The director of this yumminess is the uber talented Chris Stoeckel. While we did not get Victoire in this new release, we did get word that she is coming. {That sound in the background is Rebecca squealing with happiness}. The story behind this line is 1950’s Hollywood and a possible feud between competing divas..I’m thinking Joan Crawford/Betty Davis. With all that drama, you need killer fashions and who better to do that than Chris. We have loved his 1950s inspired couture in the Victoires of the past. It looks like his future designs will take us to a whole other level. Soooooo excited!

{FAINT!!!} Oh…my…word. I am traveling as I write this blog post and I was sitting at a restaurant yesterday morning when these pictures came into the WClub members inboxes. I am absolutely sure I embarassed myself when I squealed with delight on this one. Where to start with the love…..hmmmm. Ok, first is the color combinations. Adore this red and black with the raven hair. New face sculpt on these characters and I love them. I don’t advocate smoking ( Constance..you need to rethink that one) but the props are so appropriate for the 1950’s. It’s the attention to detail and the playability that I love the most I think. Chris has given us two separate looks on every doll. Bonus!!! Love it!!!

{FAINT…AGAIN}. Chris, next time give us collectors some warning before you unleash this kind of gorgeousness on us My heart cant take it 
A redhead in electric blue! Adore. Love, love, love the silhouette on the gown. Also love the embroidered pants look. the accessories are spot on…except…for the plastic shoes. Nope…no at this pricepoint people I am hoping IT rethinks this one. I and many collectors concur…this is a misplaced note in the middle of a beautiful symphony. Apparently Evelyn likes the makeup because she comes with a full set. Adorable! Head to ankle gorgeous…plastic shoes need an upgrade.

OK, so this might be my favorite. The two separate looks are to die for..evening to day perfection. The accessories are spot on. I adore the floral headpiece. The plastic shoes have to go but everything else is a huge thumbs up. Also adore the facial screening on her.

{Rebecca is now on her way to hospital…too many faints and now has concussion}
Cocktails indeed! I know I will need a few after this collection to lament my poor, poor wallet. I have a think for well tailored suits. This one is perfection I love both sets of gloves with these looks The driving gloves in particular! Simple jewelry is perfect here as the suit s the star. The shoes..oh why oh why with the plastic. I’m sound like a broken record…I know. The facial screening on her is my least favorite of this collection but not a deal breaker. I’m still buying.
The big questions from me and many collectors is…what is the body on this lady? Is it FR2, Victoire…enquiring minds want to know. I am sure we will get answers soon. At the time this goes to print there will be a live chat with the designer Chris Stoeckel. I am sure he will give us this info.
I hate the write and run but I am on he road driving a bunch of orchestra instruments and luggage back from L.A. Will hopefully have more information to share with you tomorrow.
If you want to purchase these beauties find your local Integrity Toys Authorized Dealer I would run not walk as many of these have already sold out to WClub members.
Recklessness in the Studio!
I received the lovely dolls I ordered from the “Reckless” collection from my fabulous Integrity Toy’s dealer this past week and I have to say…I am not disappointed at all. The facial screenings are delightful and the fashions and accessories exceed expectations on most levels. My only complaint is that the choker necklaces on both Ayumi and Erin needed to have adjustments. On mine at least the choker was too tight a fit and I ended up adding another bigger jump ring so it would close around the neck. I know some people are just popping the heads off and putting the necklace on but that seemed like too much work to me given how often I redress these models…so the jump ring was a good solution for me.
The braids were a surprise to me and apparently a lot of other collectors. They didn’t show these in the promo shots so I made sure to showcase them in these pictures. Definitely a Moschino influence with the burned edge bow.
Moschino 2016 RTW
Jessy Ayala did a marvelous job with the modern day “Clueless” inspired collection. It’s young, its hip, it’s edgy and it also manages to be fun. I am looking forward to photographing different looks.
I also ordered the Erin but did not get individual shots of her so I went ahead and did a group shot of the girls I did order. I will be adding Lilith and hope upon all hope that I can add the Eden to. Please shine down on me oh Lottery Gods.
And…because, as Jessy explained to us at the last IT convention, this collection was inspired by the movie Clueless…I just had to do this.
Integrity Toy’s “The Industry” 2017 Revealed
Integrity Toy’s made their first collection reveal to the newly minted 2017 WClub the other day and all I can say is Wow! it’s a doozy! As Dolce and Gabbana and many other designers are going to the so called millennials for inspiration and a new ad campaigns, David Buttry appears to be pulling from the same pool…at least with the fashions and accessories.
Millennials = consisting of individuals born between 1982 and 2004.
There have been a lot of positives and negatives written about Millennials. I will stick with the positive. It has been noted that they grew up in an electronics-filled and increasingly online and socially-networked world. This helps to explain some of the many new and fabulous accessories that come with this collection. Hope you enjoy.
Keep in mind that these offerings are available through Integrity Toys dealers and were announced to the WClub a few days a go. If you want any of these …run don’t walk to try and get these. Some may be sold out already.
Come Thru!

Talk about updated hair! This one is an early favorite for many collectors. She comes with sandals and boots and while I love the accessories, I am not loving the dress on this one. It seems way too dowdy for this doll. She needs edgy and hip in my opinion not docile little school girl. The doll though with half flocked and half pink tresses…fabulousness! **note** This doll is articulated at the ankle. The other dolls are not.

These accessories!!! A MUST have. As to the question…”Will Rebecca buy a doll just for the accessories?”. Well…yes she will. I do also like the look of this doll but he is very similar to the Ace McFly doll they produced a couple of conventions ago. I’m still getting him though as the girls and guys in my collection need their makeup artist .
David Buttry and his team did an amazing job with this first full scale ‘The Industry” collection. The accessories alone make this capsule collection worth a look-see. My only complaint is that…there is a WHOLE lot of black going on here. It would be nice to see more color coming in. And also on the subject of black, there was also an absence of it…as in skin tone. I would have liked to have seen an AA model in this lineup. There are, however, a whole lot of mix and match pieces that will be fun to pair with other outfits in my collection and I look forward to being the mini stylist with those and sharing on the blog. I can definitely see my Out of Sight Nadja in many of these outfits.
Again…these dolls are available through Integrity Toys dealers only. Feel free to click on the link to find them.

2016 Integrity Toys – The <3 MLP™ Collection
Yes indeedy. Integrity Toys has obtained licensing through Hasbro to bring you a collection inspired by favorite My Little Pony characters. Now…I am going to admit right off the bat… I was never a collector of my little pony. They were after my time. My daughter, however, was a huge fan. Even though I may not be in the market to collect or purchase this collection, I can appreciate the time and though that went into it. Jessy Ayala is a new designer with Integrity Toys and this is his first full collection with the company. As I listened to the thought and attention he brought to each and every item, I was extremely impressed. Well done Jessy!
Things you need to know if you want to buy:
1) This is IT direct product which means you go directly to Integrity Toys to purchase
2) Super limited edition sizes of 500 per doll. WClubbers will have first dibs on these then they will be offered up to general public. See each doll for approximate release date

Poppy Parker Live from the Oscars Red Carpet!
Every time the Oscars roll around, I feel compelled to do some kind of red carpet or Oscar themed shoot. I have done Barbie getting dressed in her closet. I’ve done Barbie on her way to presenting the Oscar. I’ve done Barbie on the red carpet. I have yet to do any Integrity Toys, Inc products for the Oscar night festivities. Well…I’m going to fix that right now! Poppy Parker is going to the Oscars!
Model: Mood Changer Poppy Parker repainted and restyled by Jon Copeland-Childers of SeloJSpa ( she has been re-bodied on a FR2 body)
Gown: Pansak Charoentonphubal of Eifeldolldress
Jewelry: On Set ( gift fashion from 2015 I.T. Cinematic Convention)
Will try and have my red carpet picks and pans from the Oscars on Monday 
Add, Mix and Stir!!
Integrity Toys and their WClub just announced the first release of 2016. It’s a capsule collection entitled “In The Mix” and it will certainly stir many collectors’ imaginations and open quite a few wallets and/or break bank accounts. According to IT’s marketing director, Alain Trembley, this Color Infusion offering was inspired by today’s music industry. It’s a smart, sexy street style of a capsule collection with lots of opportunities to mix and match within this or other collections.

Again, love the accessories on this one. The intricate bustier with leather strapping top and hairstyle work well here. Then, they soften the look with soft floral printed on “leather”. Nice mixture indeed.

Two things….two….pink jacket and thigh high black leather boots. Enough said.
For those of you not familiar with the Color Infusion line of dolls from Integrity Toys, they are 1/6 scale 12.5 inch fashion dolls. They differ from FR2, Nu.Face and Poppy in that their body type has different proportions and the foot size is larger. I am clarifying this because some of the clothing can be used on other 1/6 body types and some cannot. Their shoes are generally too big for other 1/6 dolls.
WHERE TO BUY: List of Integrity Toys dealers is here. WClub members had this information a full day ahead of this posting so if you are at all interested, I suggest you contact a dealer sooner rather than later. These items will be hot sellers.
Honestly, this collection has floored me. I am not and have not been a Color Infusion collector. I have seen this product line since it’s inception and it never really appealed to me….until now. It feels like they have taken this product line and elevated it about 5 levels. This is the hip urban street style that the Nu.Face line used to have. This is, I feel, the sassy fashion profile that collectors had been wanting to see but had not seen lately from Integrity. Thank you for listening I.T.!!! For the first time ever, I am contemplating dipping a toe in Color Infusion products. Vaughn Sawyer led the design team on this one. Mr. Sawyer, I tip my hat to you.
