IT 2011 ~ Part IV of IV ~ Poppy Parker, Color Infusion, Monogram and The Event Exclusive

As usual, the new Poppy Parkers are delightful. I'm pleased they've got the more detailed eye painting back. Darla Daley is the welcome new friend of Poppy.

It's now 1964 and so many things have changed for Poppy Parker since she arrived in New York. She is now one of the most popular teenage models in New York. She has been on the cover of five fashion and teen magazines and recently scored a new gig as the face of McCalpin's Department Store for their Juniors' department.

Another new development is the arrival of Poppy's best friend, Darla Daley. They met in a record shop and now, they are inseparable. Darla is an upcoming young singer who just made her television debut on the Ted Mullivan show. Thanks to her appearance on the show, she now has her first hit single! 

The Ted Mullivan Show? LOL I wonder if many of the collectors of this line even know to whom that refers.
 
Foto Fab $119. Perfectly Purple $119. Youthquake $90.
 

Hit Single $119. Twist 'n Shout $90.





Color Infusion Collection
Amelie becomes a muse for a unique, richly hued and embellished capsule collection. The mood echoes exuberant city style through a vibrant mix of color and textures with trendsetting makeup, hair, jewelry and fashion.

Cosmic Love Amelie $125.
Rebel Spirit Amelie $125.
  What is there about being pigeon-toed that is cute?

 The Monogram Collection
Someone was asleep at the wheel with this trio.  It's the same dress in three colors and the same doll in three shades. That approach works on American Girl dolls but not here. They are called Bemused, Envied and Passionate. I call them Dark, Light and Medium.
Dark, Light and Medium. $125.
The 2011 Online Event-Exclusive Doll
Night Scape Giselle Diefendorf dressed in black shorts, black sweater and a kind of deflated puffer jacket with an over-scaled zipper for $110.
This doll is available only to W Club members until Monday February 29th at Noon.

Integrity 2011 online event: Nu Face

Nu Face, the younger, edgier Fashion Royalty line, got two separate collections this time. The Nu Fantasy (reminded me so much of Tonner Re-Imagination), like they did with Amelie some time ago, and the regular line. Amelie is also present in her own seperate collection. So let's see what we have in store:


Quiet Storm Annik™ Dressed Doll

Suggested Retail: $110.00 US
Estimated Delivery: Late June 2011




London Mist Imogen™ Dressed Doll

Estimated Delivery: Late June 2011





In The Trenches Luxury Wear Fashion
The New Close-Ups Collection
Limited Edition of 300 Fashions Worldwide

Estimated Delivery: Late June 2011



True Blues Luxury Wear Fashion
The New Close-Ups Collection
Limited Edition of 300 Fashions Worldwide
Suggested Retail: $75.00 US
Estimated Delivery: Late June 2011



So from the normal Nu Face line, I love Imogen but I passed over for another short haired doll from the FR dolls (in a future post). I like the fashions a lot, they could be from Burberry Prorsum line, but they miss the edge that should be part of Nu Face.


This line, like the Re-Imagination of Tonner, is about re-interpretation of a classic tale. Here we have Snow White. One doll is the Evil Queen, the other is Snow White (with her apple). Pretty but un-inspired. - the Queen's hairdo is a major failure. From previous efforts Integrity has made (see the Red Queen) I expected something superb.


Malicious Nu.Fantasy Dressed Doll (TJ/Jasper facemold)

Estimated Delivery: June/July 2011



Pure Nu.Fantasy Dressed Doll (Erin facemold)

And here is Amelie from Misaki in her own collection - it uses the Misaki torso and The Brides Of Dracula legs.


Cosmic Love Amelie Dressed Doll

This is definitely not my cup of cake, the red dress though is great, I especially love the neckline! More comments on my relevant podcast.

Dollystyle Convention Featured Souvenir Dolls

The Dollystyle Convention just took place in Tokyo on November 21-22. Attendees were presented with a stunning Amelie (Misaki's friend) dressed all in pink. Her fashion is a a throw back to the first Misaki doll who was dressed similarly but all in black. Amelie is called "Tokyo A Go Go." The original Misaki was called "Tokyo Here We Go!"
There was also an uber-limited Tokyo Here We Go - Marui Misaki released when the Nippon line began. I wanted this doll for such a long time and then I stopped collecting Misaki. She was dressed all in white and only 100 were ever made. I still admire this doll.

The other doll took me by surprise and until I was able to secure one I was on pins and needles. She is called "Night Warrior" and has the Vanessa sculpt.
Registrants also received the following items. This partial list was posted by Robsdolls.
DollyStyle Tote Bag(The 1st two were great!)
