This creepy haute couture lizard for Halloween is Phelsuma, a OOAK Inamorata art doll with Nnaji head sculpt and Andro bust type in Charcoal resin.
Her highly editorial make up has a pearlescent green scale pattern running from her brow to the back of her head, red and gold lips, rust coloured eyes and wild eyeshadow covering her brow with multi coloured leaf gold. The look is finished with green sequins as bindi and below her eyes.
The translucent netting dress is a hand stitched with thick scaly clusters of red and green sequins and beads to accentuate feminine form. The netting boots with Classic Stiletto heels have a line of red sequins running down the back seam.
Both doll and the fashion are available in the shop now:

Fernbank Science Center's exhibit "Geckos: Tails to Toepads" included Geckos from around the world. This Giant Day Gecko, (Phelsuma madagascariensis grandis), is large and stout, reaching 11 inches or more, originating from North and NW Madagascar and islands nearby. The majority of their diet in the wild is insects and other small invertabrates; they inhabit trees, bushes and human dwellings, with a need for plentiful basking locations.

Geckos play a role in the Hawaiian ecosystem as pest controllers, eating insects. They are also a part of Hawaiian culture and folklore, with some stories even portraying them as sacred creatures.

The first two eggs of my two Phelsuma grandis! I'm super excited to see them hatch *whistlingjurassicparctheme* ;)!
