Another Carol Peters OOAK outfit--this time, the lovely Daphne Dimples (Effanbee) from the Brenda Starr collection is our model.

I think she's simply sizzling!

Prudence as Marie

Another wonderful one-of-a-kind outfit by the talented Carol Peters, this is Prudence Moody as Marie Antoinette.

I understand Carol was inspired by Val Zeitler's Young Marie collection, as featured in Haute Doll Magazine a few years ago. (It was a collection created for Sky, a Peak's Woods BJD, and what inspired my very first BJD purchase.) Carol created her own French Court Petit Trianon cotton day dress of this lovely floral print, trimmed with lace, ribbon and roses.

She even created a wig for Prudence as well. See the cute little blue bird, peeking through the top?

You can see additional photos of this outfit on my Flickr photostream. Enjoy!

Ellowyne in Carol Peters

Here is a lovely one-of-a-kind outfit, designed by Carol Peters and modeled by Ellowyne Wilde. Victorian inspired, in a burnout velvet print and red shantung with lots of velvet ribbon detail, Ellowyne looks her very best.

I love the detail of the velvet purse and the fringed hat.

High End Envy Erin S - W Club Exclusive

I'm thrilled to announce the lovely first exclusive W Club doll of the year, High End Envy Erin S. She retails for $115 and is expected to deliver in the summer of 2012. The doll is limited to W Club members only, one per membership.

She "features a brand new refreshed likeness" and slightly older looking facial screening, I think, with aqua eyes and red lips. Her red rooted red hair with a few brunette streaks adds drama. She's dressed in a fun chiffon dress with pleating.

Her accessories are very cool--with gold faux snakeskin heels and lucite straps on her shoes, to the dramatic clutch with pink accents, bracelets, earrings and a ring is also included.

MTW Award

I'm pleased to announce that the Fashion Doll Review has received one of the MTW (Mini Treasures Wiki) Awards for 2012 this year. For details of the award, and to see and visit the other award winners, check out this link.

Mini Treasures is now on Pinterest as well. This is a great venue for browsing miniatures, I think--even if you collect fashion dolls for the fashions and not diorama accessories, you will want to start miniatures after a few minutes on Pinterest.

You can find my boards on there as well.
