Popular fashion doll photos from 2014

Here are the top ten fashion doll photos (sorted by number of favorites) on Flickr. Above, it's On the Rise Elise Jolie, taken at IFDC in July. She was displayed in the Integrity Toys booth. This photo has 30 favorites.

Elise was popular this year, and one of the dolls I did not order from the collection. This photo has 28 favorites, and was also taken at IT's display booth at IFDC.

On the Prowl Eugenia was another favorite, coming it at #3 with 25 favorites. She too was on display. I didn't add her to my collection, either.

Interestingly, this photo of the yellow dress Barbie Look Red Carpet collection doll (I think with the Louboutin face) comes in at #4 with 25 favorites (and fewer views). I took this photo at the Grant A Wish convention in April.

A second Grant A Wish photo from April comes in at #5 with 24 favorites. This Barbie Look Red Carpet doll uses the Lea face and is wearing a silver gown.

Those sneak peeks of the Barbie Look collection were quite popular this year. This doll takes the #6 spot with 22 favorites. She uses the lovely Aphrodite face.

Weirdly, this dark photo comes in at #7. It's another photo from the IFDC convention, at Integrity's booth. Elusive Creature Natalia Fatale has garnered 21 favorites.

A blurry shot takes up spot #8, also with 21 favorites. This showcases the Mackie, Aphrodite and Lea sculpts of the Red Carpet Barbie Look collection previewed at the Grant a Wish convention.

Poppy Parker
Agent Lotta Danger (Poppy Parker) was manufactured by Integrity Toys, and displayed at IFDC in July. She comes in at #9 with 18 favorites.

Tulabelle
French Kissed Tulabelle is a 16" Integrity Toys doll. She comes in at #9 with 17 favorites. I actually ordered just the fashion from this doll, and it's amazing.

Finally, coming in the 10the place with 17 favorites is Vivid Encounter Adele Makeda. I ended up ordering this doll, and she is great! I think her dress is amazingly detailed, and I really like her makeup.

After perusing these photos myself, I realize two things: 1) I should continue to attend conventions and doll shows, and 2) I need to take some more photos of dolls that are actually in my collection.

  1. Did you catch the post at The Fashion Doll Chronicles of models as Barbie dolls styled by famous designers? It reminded me of you, since you enjoy redressing and accessorizing Barbie with real life clothes.

    Hope your 2015 is dolly-filled!

    1. I did, Barb! I saw those photos a while ago on Elle Magazine's website, I think. Cute!

  2. It's always interesting to see what other people respond to in photographs. I second you taking more photographs of dolls you own!

    Apparently that yellow dress Barbie Look Red Carpet collection doll is extremely popular. She's the only one in the Barbie Look set that is sold out on BarbieCollector.com.

    1. What a surprise! Though I think one of that set was a dealer exclusive, right? Maybe Lea? I wonder if she is still readily available from dealers, or if she too sold out quickly.

  4. Hi Alison, Happy New Year to you! I'm relatively new to doll collecting; I started about 21/2 years ago. Just wanted to say that I read your blog regularly and really enjoy it! Also, great photos in the countdown! I started taking pictures of my growing collection as well, and just decided to make my Flickr site public (it's here, if you want to check it out: https://www.flickr.com/photos/112566025@N05/sets/72157649216210187/). Anyhow, wishing you a great 2015, and I'll be reading!

      You really have a knack for drama!

  5. Mattel and Integrity Toys the favorites? Not surprising. Thanks for sharing the photos AND the face molds of the dolls.

    Happy photo taking in 2015!
