Beautiful Styling by Rebecca Berry

Rebecca Berry aka raberry on the doll boards has posted lovely photographs of her Dark Swan Elise redressed. Although these dolls have a new body type, they do fit into existing fashions. You just have to try. Today I got a early pair of Erin's pants onto Elise. They look great.
Here are Rebecca's photos. You can see more on her Flickr site.

Rebecca is a former Picture of the Week Award winner.

All they did was shut her mouth?

Word has come down from above that all the Integrity Toys designers did to the Vanessa sculpt was shut her mouth. It was also stated that bad photography was the cause of the puffiness and apparent lack of cheekbones. Hmmm...that's EXACTLY what I said on  2/27/11. 

And it's hilarious in light of the fact that the liaisons at the W Club forum have shut the Vanessa threads down, too.

 

Mulder and Sculley in shock at the new IT 2011 line.

Did you see the X-Files episodes with the aliens whose mouth and eyes were sewn shut? Shudder.

 What I saw was sabotage:  disruption, treachery...

Lt. Valeris: Four-hundred years ago, on the planet Earth, workers who felt their livelihood threatened by automation, flung their wooden shoes, called sabot, into the machines to stop them . . . hence the word: sabotage.

This image means nothing:

Ana from Portugal posted an interesting Vanessa vs Fauxnessa composite.

Elise Trifecta

I ought to be cleaning and doing yoga but taking pictures of dolls is so much more appealing. Today I took all three Elise dolls into my studio for a photo shoot. Click on the images to see larger versions.

Do you have a favorite?

 In the photos of Flawless, I had to Photoshop out some of the hair defects which, I'm hoping, will be gone on the new head I'm going to get from IT.


Blue Blood Elise Jolie  2009 Convention Souvenir. She is not on an FR2 body.

I still have not changed her from her original fashion because I think she's just perfection.

Dark Swan Elise Jolie  The W Club Luncheon 2009 Centerpiece is wearing the new FR2 Fashion, Only Natural. I have added Knife Edge bracelets and a Purse of the Month handbag. I am considering cutting her hair to shoulder length and curling the ends. She is very sparsely rooted and needs some filler.

I sold her original black outfit as I didn't think it flattered her.

Dark Swan's huge braid was opened and her hair is tied back except for the shorter pieces. 

 Flawless Elise Jolie  I have added a feathery hat.

Balancing on her own. Don't try this at home without caution.

She sits beautifully! A Wonderful improvement.

Ring fits on separated fingers!

Uber-scaled earrings.

This is a really sucky picture but it shows the back of the dress bodice and boots.

Fabulous footwear.

I do not have an attribute for the last photo which was taken by someone at an IFDC event.
I've just been informed that the photo was taken by Atelier Soda.
