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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.
