The hair is glued to a separate head cap, which lifts up to show the stringing. The cap holds the elastic that holds the doll together, so the doll cannot be rewigged or rooted (but if the head cap had a "hook" instead of the current hole in the porcelain to hold the elastic, it may be possible to put a bald head cap on the doll, refasten the elastic and use wigs.

Another doll released is The Bride was released in April 2009. She is wearing a stunning glittering wedding gown, silk panties, garter, stockings, white shoes and veil. Her tattoos are her wedding gifts, all done in white, silverware, lamps, clocks and lace detail on her wrists and lower tummy and a fantastic skeleton of her backbone on her back! The Nurse was the last and my favorite released in July 2009. Her body art is fantastic with hypo marks and band-aid on her arms (mine has one on both arms and no black armband) hypo needle on back of leg, graphics on lower tummy, cross on upper arm, heart on back and scientific formulas on her thigh. Gorgeous lavender glass eyes and raven hair.

Girl’s letter prompts MGA Entertainment to bring girl's Bratz doll designs to life

BOCA RATON, Fla. - When it comes to dolls, 8-year-old Angelina Giani of Boca Raton, Florida is a huge fan of Bratz dolls with over 30 in her collection. "Like 30, or 36," she said.

 

But Angelina started to notice they don't look quite like her. "They have blonde hair and they're mostly, very, very tall," said Giani.

 

So, the 8-year-old from Boca Raton decided to write a letter to the company that makes Bratz dolls.

 

In her letter, “Dear MGA, I am a very big fan of you. I love all the dolls you make.” Angelina asked if they could create a doll that resembled her. She even sent drawings depicting dolls with less makeup, shorter hair and longer dresses, which she felt more closely reflected her look. Angelina’s mother, Rosana Giani, said that her daughter is never afraid of being different and customizes her own clothes by cutting long sleeves, or sewing ruffles on pajama pants that are too short.
 

Then four weeks later, the drawings were brought to life.

The company took Angelina’s sketches and transformed them into actual outfits for the dolls, used different shades to reflect the makeup drawn and gave one of the dolls a bob haircut like her illustration.

 

"They actually made them and sent them in a box. I never knew they were going to respond, I didn't think they would take her seriously. It felt kinda cool, and I felt proud.” said Angelina Giani.

MGA Entertainment, based in Los Angeles, produced three custom made dolls, and said in a statement: "We were very impressed and touched by Angelina's designs." Angelina's mom looked at this as a writing exercise for her daughter, but didn't expect the response.

"I never knew they were going to respond, I didn't think they would take her seriously," said Rosiana Giani.

Angelina hopes that one day her designs will be put on store shelves so everybody can buy them.

Reclusive heiress Huguette Clark spent millions on doll collection

By: Eric Pfeiffer, Yahoo! News

 

The late heiress Huguette Clark was known for her reclusive nature, rarely leaving her apartment and spending the last two decades of her life voluntarily living in a hospital.

But a new book reveals there was one hobby that drew Clark out of her shell: a lifelong infatuation with expensive dolls. In their new book “Empty Mansions: The Mysterious Life of Huguette Clark and the Spending of a Great American Fortune,” authors Bill Dedman and Paul Clark Newell Jr. report that Clark amassed a doll collection worth an estimated $2 million.

 

Clark’s life was full of eccentric tales. For example, she owned two mansions in California and New York worth a combined $150 million — but she never visited either location. She also spent more than 20 years living in New York’s Beth Israel Hospital at a cost of more than $400,000 a year, even though she did not have any diagnosed illness.

 

She lived to be 104. Her father was 22 during the Civil War, and Clark lived to see the nation's first African-American president take office.

 

However, it was Clark’s passion, perhaps even obsession, for dolls and dollhouses that might be the most interesting fact about her life.

 

Clark’s passion for dolls and dollhouses was so strong it trumped her reclusive nature. In the late 1950s Clark reportedly left her Fifth Avenue mansion to attend a Christian Dior fashion show — so she could purchase clothes for her dolls.

 

In their book, Dedman and Newell write that Clark caused a stir when her name appeared on a guest list for the show: "Mrs. Huguette Clark!’ exclaimed the consul general, Baron Jacques Baeyens, who had married Huguette’s niece. ‘Look, she’s not going to come. She’s my aunt, and she never goes out.’ The representative from Christian Dior replied, ‘Oh, yes, she will. She wants to see the dresses to dress her dolls."

 

During a Tuesday appearance on Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show,” Dedman revealed that the doll collection was such a big part of Clark’s life that she would routinely call up the Austrian-Hungarian immigrant husband-and-wife team who constructed her dollhouses.

 

“The man and woman who fixed her dollhouses and did the curtains for her were pestered to death by her,” Dedman told host Jon Stewart. “She would call them every evening and say, ‘You know, the ceilings are too low in these dollhouses.’ She told them, ‘The little people are banging their heads.”

But the dollhouse makers were amply rewarded for their hard work.

 

“She was very generous to them,” Dedman explained. “All the grandchildren of the couple who made her dollhouses went to college on the generosity of Huguette Clark.”
