ITALIAN MAGAZINE SCHOOLGIRL DOLL

ITALIAN MAGAZINE SCHOOLGIRL DOLL.

I couldn't quite tell if this two page spread in an Italian magazine was promoting a store's clothing choices or a pattern company. There were short descriptions (in Italian naturally) of each outfit underneath the cut-outs. Anyway, I liked the doll and the clothes so here it is!

 

RED RIDING HOOD FASHION SHOW

RED RIDING HOOD FASHION SHOW.

While Grandma is tied up and the Wolf takes her place in the bed, Red Riding Hood decides to put on a fashion show! That silly girl!

The Wolf & Grandma make up a bi-fold background for Red to pose in front of.

 

PINK PROM TWINS - JEAN & SUE

PINK PROM TWINS - JEAN & SUE.

And the last two dolls in this set make an appearance.

Will Jean and Sue be rivals for the boy's attentions or just good friends sharing a dance at the Pink Prom? You decide. Is that Lesley Gore singing "It's My Party" in the background?

 

PINK PROM TWINS - JACK & DICK

PINK PROM TWINS - JACK & DICK.

And here are the Twin's dates for the Pink Prom.

 The boys are quite dapper in their outfits and formal attire.

I'll post the rest of this set tomorrow - the Twin's Rivals!

PINK PROM TWINS - DEBBIE & LINDA.

The twins are going to Prom with their 1950's fashions. 

They even have a tri-fold background to pose in front of for those prom pictures.

Tomorrow I will post their dates!

 

FLAPPER ERA DOLL

FLAPPER ERA DOLL.

Here's a cute little flapper evoking the 1920's style. I have a fondness for clothes from this period which spanned the gap between the rigid formality of Victorian fashion and the looser cut of twentieth century garments.

 

SHARI LEWIS 2

SHARI LEWIS 2.

I posted Shari Lewis & the Puppets back on Feb. 1, 2024 and here is another set featuring the multi-talented idol of my youth. This was originally one of those "lace on clothes" dolls which I frankly find hideous. So I have digitally removed all of the ugly holes in both doll and outfits and added tabs to make this a true paper doll set. I really like these fashions for Shari and the puppets are along for the fun once again.

 

SCHOOL PALS

SCHOOL PALS.

Ginny and Kate were friends from school. 

Each had a very nice wardrobe so it must have been a fancy school indeed.

I wonder if they still keep in touch?
