The story of a vintage style fashion doll with a certain Caprice...
The new booklets for the next release are here, and I'm extremely happy with them.
They were quite a labour of love as you will see below. Lots of trial and error, experimenting with layouts, backgrounds, and fonts.
You can now see these are a release for Japan, but fear not! I've kept some dolls back so as not to disappoint Eurooean and US clients, and to sell at doll shows.
They will be on sale very soon.
So finally I'm gearing up for pre-orders on the next release.
It's been a long time coming, but hopefully worth the wait!
Here are some sneak peaks of what is in store. This will be an exclusive Fanfan release.
Something different in the world of my doll making. A three doll set inspired by the 1998 blockbuster movie Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (Something Happens).
Back in the day the film was a phenomenon. It changed the trend of how Bollywood films were made, and had a far reaching influence on youth culture in music, fashion etc. The film's three main characters, Tina, Rahul, and Anjali became the teen idols of millions.
It was unashamedly escapist, sentimental and kitsch, but very entertaining!
Making these dolls was a real labour of love. All the little details etc. My long term collaborator Andrei Teican did a great job on the clothes.
It was a bit of a passion project. I'm happy with how they turned out.
