Custom Frozen Anna Coronation Doll
I'm using the description I wrote up for my deviantART page:
Anna's dress has been completely hand sewn and hand embroidered. A Disney Store classic Anna doll was used and her hair restyled (the braid is not as full as I would have liked, but I had to be careful on how much I used because the DS doll has huge bald spots!). No pattern was used; I cut the pieces to the doll as I go.
Her skirt is made up of 11 embroidered satin panels that were sewn onto a dark green base fabric (I actually used the "wrong" side of the fabric because the "right" side was all glittery...but I really liked the color! lol). It was then pressed to create the pleats. For the bodice, I was originally going to use a premier velvet, but realized it was going to be too thick for this size doll. I settled on a black silk dupioni, which ended up working perfectly. The sleeves are chiffon and the trim for them was done using the very edge of a ribbon. Her necklace was made using clay, a jump ring, an eyepin, and rattail cording. The hairpiece was a jewelry finding that I folded in half.
Beneath the dress are the following: a chiffon and lace slip, tulle petticoat, cream bloomers, white stockings, and black suede shoes. I was inspired after seeing photos of the Harrods LE doll (and knowing I will probably never see this version in person). I tried to remain close to the details in the movie, but I did use that green lace because I fell in love with it and was determined to work it in somehow.
Her cloak is of a green satin that has embroidered details at the top. I lined it with a dark green crushed panné because I figured it has to help keep her somewhat warm, right? XD
Though I severely underestimated the time it would take to complete her, I definitely enjoyed the process. But I HAVE decided that my next projects will have significantly less embroidery. lol
Anna will be going to her new home soon. :)
