Merveilleuse Agnes von Weiss - La Femme Collection

The Baroness is here!!!! When La Femme collection was announced Agnes was the third doll I liked the most, with Eugenia being the first and Elyse the second. I preordered her without hesitation because, in general, I like short haired dolls and I like the screening they chose for her. I was soooo excited to get her!!!!

 

Hair/Makeup: As far as I recall, Agnes was never in FR white color, this is the first one. Also, she is the first Agnes with short hair. Have to admit, I am not too crazy about the hairstyle in person. Although she has tones of product in her hair, it still looks bulky. I think she she is too heavily rooted. The right side of her head looks better as it has less hair, the right one is a bit problematic. As I got her several days ago, I already washed her hair and she does look better IMO, will post photos. Maybe if they used Exquise Adele's hairstyle... Now, her face left me breathless!!! Those red lips and turquoise eyes!!! She also has a hint of silver eyeshadow, which makes this color combination my favorite, stunning! She looks very classy and elegant. I also adore her eyebrows! Her face is a perfection, I wouldn't change anything, but I have to penalize for the hair. 9.5/10

 

Outfit/Accessories: I wasn't too impressed with the outfit when she was announced, but in person it looks quite nice. The skirt was the least favorite piece, but it is very nicely made and it is fully lined with a mesh material. It looks very haute in person. The blouse is also nicely constructed, but I am not sure about the material they chose. It looks artificial and shiny in person. I am no expert in materials, so I can not tell which one they used. Now, the surprise, the blouse does not close on the back!!!??? It doesn't close at all. Yes, you will have to remove it over her head. I got it, they wanted have a clean look on the back, because of the short hair. But, I am not sure this is a good choice for short haired doll, because you will mess her hair if you remove it a few times. She comes with the same belt they used for Exquise Adele, it looks very nice, but it is a nightmare to put on. The new closures are not good choice for the belts IMO, the old ones closed better. The shoes are the weakest link here. Very basic black sandals, with long black strings. The strings look very basic and cheap, not like the ones they used for Coquette Jordan. Though they do have red soles and silver heels, which is a nice touch. Now, the necklace is everything, it looks very nice when you put it on. She comes with a coordinated ring and earrings, as well. Very nice jewelry. The leopard bag brings a bit of drama in this look. The execution is amazing, it closes with small silver zipper and looks very nice in person. 9/10.

 

Overall: It is all about the screening and the face when it comes to this Agnes. She will be very cherished here. As the outfit is a hit or a miss, I would suggest to get her nude, as she really looks beautiful! 9/10
