Integrity Toys 2018 Reveal: Fashion Royalty Sacred Lotus Collection
Jessy Ayala is helming this years entire Fashion Royalty collection as well and he has done a remarkable job. While he brought out the youthful, edgy and stylish designs for Nu.Face he has also managed to master high fashion, Chic and refined for the Fashion Royalty 2018 line. Using many of the same inspirations as Nu.Face he has given collectors “Sacred Lotus”. There are regal along with bold moments in this cohesive collection but the one word I keep coming back to is “sophisticated”.

That face!! That color!! Goddess indeed! I have always been partial to Tatyana’s facemold. I adore those cheekbones just like I do in Elyse. I love that Jessy chose bright green peridot for the stones on the jewelry to go with the tomato red of this sari inspired dress. If you like jewelry, this entire collection is for you. There is more than enough mix and match pieces to go around.
It looks like Jessy may have gone to the runway for inspiration as well though not Gucci. This one appears to come from a few years back (2013 Spring RTW) and the talented ladies at Marchesa.

Sooooo Elegant! The short silver hair sold this doll for me but the turban was the icing. Also love the refined tones in this entire package…reds, greys, aubergine with gold….yummy. This Natalia is fierce elegance. Add in a cape and a turban and you have a fashion superhero. Actually, all those bracelets may in fact ward off bullets.
I could have sworn this cape was inspired by Valentino but alas…I have no fashion inspiration on this one.

What is not to like about this giftset…other than it’s a lottery. Well crap! I love the dark skin toned Vanessa on this and the outfit is super chic but the accessories really steal the show in my opinion. The shoes! EEEEE!! And, thanks to the super sleuths on the WClub forums, we know that the bag is inspired by the Chloé Nile Minaudière bag. As the life size bag goes for roughly $1500, this is the closest I will ever get to it.
Also, the pants have a wrap style belt that appears to be inspired by Haider Ackerman (2018 spring RTW)

Wowza!! Hail to the tuxedo sari! I’m all in on this one. From the vibrant red hair down to the strappy sandals. I’m IN. A glorious way to cap off the webinar. There were many happy collectors after the webinar on Saturday. Well done designers and Integrity Toys!!
Another JPG fall couture 2017 inspired creation…
Signing off as my keyboard is smoking after posting 4 reports today and I have no more adjectives or superlatives to add that I have not already used LOL! Also, it is apparent to me that my empty and weeping wallet will need to be filled soon to accommodate these new collection additions coming into my doll room….time to get to work!
