Main line collections FR and NuFace 2020
Here we are, these are this year's main line collections for Fashion Royalty and NuFace fans. No, I didn't leave out any doll from this preview, this is all we got! Just two dolls per line, quite disappointing, at least for me. My plan this year is to get only the dolls I preordered so far, nothing else. But... I figured I could spoil myself with only one doll! So, I was excited to see three or four dolls per line and to analyze them and choose only favorite. But, I didn't get too much to choose from.
Siren Silhouette Korinne Dimas - I will start with FR, it was about time we see Korinne. Believe or not, this is the first Korinne on FR2 body that became the norm back in 2013! I bet Korinne fans are crazy for her! I had hard time passing her, as I like this sculpt. Her dress is TDF! Those details on the lower part of the dress, lovely color, the fit, everything looks so good! Jessy Ayala, the designer, showed his doll and I really liked how she looked IRL. She got beautiful earrings, a color variation of Secret Garden Eugenia's earrings. Her screening reminds me on old screenings, but it feels new, which is a good thing. Ilove her hair! The reason why I didnt get her is the position of her eyes, she looks like she is looking up, but there is no white under the eyes. I find that kind of strange, but I might be either too experienced with preording new dolls or too picky....
Little Day Ensemble Veronique Perrin - Easily my favorite of the four! Now, there is something I noticed last year. Wu offered us Van 1.0 sculpt with Evermore screening, and right after that Jessy gave us the same with Ethereal Beauty. This time Jessy gave us Vero 1.0 with uptdated Forever screening and Wu gave us Red Velvet Vero with the original Forever screening. There seems to be a little competition, and I LOVE that! :) IMO Jessy won on both occasions. This Vero is a stunner, she looks youthful, sassy, and yet she has very classic FR glam. I love literally everything about her, her eyes, eyebrows and lips. Her suit is so Chanel and those gloved hands and shoes. I am thinking now maybe she will be able to take the throne from Haute Societe, my most favorite Vero ever! BTW, why do I these two dolls have Silkstone vibe?!? Does anyone else get feel that?
In My Skin Colette Duranger - Now, lets see NuFace, Colette and Karo are the second wave of
Essentials collection. She has the same screening as IT Girl Magic, but with more natural makeup. Not much to talk about here, I like her sandals, but that's all. Not really feeling this 2.0 sculpt, she seems to be revamped Perk, but IMO, she is nowhere near Perk. Still, when Jessy showed her IRL she looked very nice, and then I noticed her head is more yellow than her body, so that was a sign for me not to enter lottery. Thanks, but no thanks, if I want a doll with yellow head, I can buy one of the older dolls.
My AllureKarolin Stone - I had all versions of Karo so far, but unfortunately this might be my least favorite. She has the same screening as NYFW from last year, but with this hairstyle she does look kind of bland. I like upper part of her underwear though.
So, to conclude I think Jessy did a great job on FR ladies, but NuFace girls look kind of already seen. In fact, when you compare them to the first wave they look very similar, Colette looks like Dom and Karo like Violaine, yet dolls from the first wave looked better to me.
Lottery winners are just announced, so did you win, which one did you go for?
