La Femme - 2017 Fashion Royalty Collection
When we found out that the new FR collection will be unveiled on the webinar, I was so excited! The first doll revealed was Eugenia, and boy I was floored!!! But, surprises didn't end there, let's see what we got this year:
Séduisante Elyse Jolie - after so many years we finally got Elise with her famous Black Swan screening! This should have been a lottery offering, BUT IT decided that all club members will be able to order one Elise. WOW soooooo happy!!! This is the first dark-skinned Elise and she is in Light Honey skintone. She looks stunning! Also, she is the first FR doll with flat feet! She will come with two sets of legs: high-heeled and flat. So excited to see how the feet look in real life. She is a close-up doll, so she retails for $120! I have a feeling her edition size will be about 2k. I actually love the swimsuit, both the design and the color. She has cool bag, two sets of shoes and sunglasses! Also, she has the same earrings as Sister Moguls Agnes, they are fabulous! Overall a gorgeous doll!
Vivacité Eugenia Perrin-Frost - wow, she looks like a Going Public lost twin raised in the south of France! She is in Hungarian skintone, has raven hair and cold blue eyes. I simply love her! At the same time, IMO she has the best outfit! She looks so causal, yet very elegant and fun! Don't know if it is because of the bouquet of flowers she comes with, or something else, but she has Funny Face vibe. Her accessories include a watch, a fabulous bag and a headband. The description says that the top comes with an extra-long bow detail on the back. Would love to see that! She is a perfect doll in my world!!!
Eugenia was followed by Coquette Jordan Duval - she comes in A-tone, which is one of my favorites. Her outfit is inspired by Ulyana Sergeenko spring summer 2014 collection. Very elegant and lady like. She doesn't seem to be popular (really can not explain the reason-she is gorgeous), so you can still get her at most dealers. She comes with lovely bag and a necklace. I think they should have included white swimsuit and make her a mini-giftset.
Every year we get an event doll. Last year it was LLL Agnes which is one of my favorite from the last year. This year we get yet another Agnes - Merveilleuse Agnes Von Weiss. She features White skintone and Champagne Blond short hair! Although her outfit is pretty basic, especially shoes, I think this doll will be stunning in person. I just had to add her to my collection. This is the first time Agnes has short hair and she looks amazing IMO. She shares the screening with Feminine Perspective Agnes. Those sea foam green eyes, silver details in makeup and lovely red lips, what a combination! I love the coral turquoise necklace.
Sophistiquée Vanessa Perrin - seems to be the least popular doll from the collection. I think the outfit is the main reason, beside the fact she is Vanessa 3.0. IMO she does not fit in this collection at all. The fashion pieces are beautiful on their own, so I will try to get some of them. She has similar screening like Star Power, which is my favorite Van. But, she doesn't have her eyebrows, which makes her look more soft and sweet.
The final doll was Exquise Adèle Makéda - she seems to be the most popular. I decided to pass. She reminds me too much on Scarlet Woman Adele, which I already own. I love her outfit, though! She comes with a very nice scarf, recycled necklace and a hat. Although I am a true fan of short haired dolls, I am not sure this particular hairstyle is a good choice for this Adele.
I think this collection should have been named ICONIC 2.0. I wouldn't mind having any of these dolls. Truly, I can not pick my favorite. Every time I look at the photo I have a new favorite. Preordered all except Van and Adele, and they do tempt me every day. Congratulations to IT and Jessy, the designer!
