Lots of things to take in on day one of the Integrity Toys Legendary 25th Anniversary convention, so I’m writing a number of posts to give you all the information about them! There was a separate presentation for the convention collection - which was available to preorder complete for the convention ticket holders - and also the IT Direct Exclusive dolls that will also be available in the convention shop for the main package holders. These presentations have the feel of the webinars that W Club organizes for collection reveals, but, as they are pre-recorded, feel a bit awkward. If they were live, and the people making the presentation were interacting with the attendees, instead of pretending to (yes, it shows), the experience would have been that much better. We are seeing gorgeous clothes though and that is awesome. On with it then.

Quite a beautiful Poppy, but she does not even come close to the original inspiration, Reluctant Debutante. Alain correctly pointed out that she’s more late sixties while the original was firmly in the very early part of the decade. I love the embroidery of the dress, the design and colouring is superb.. Well done David. The dress is a recreation of the one worn by Mia Farrow in the film A Dandy In Aspic, where she was also wearing this outfit that brings to mind the fur details of Poppy’s coat.

I think I like this one much better than her inspiration the Portrait In Black Poppy Parker, from the same debut collection as Reluctant Debutant. And I bet she will be as sought after as her predecessor. Both doll and outfit look gorgeous.

That’s a gorgeous Erin. Her face in the photo above reminds me a bit of the actress Ruth Wilson. The doll looks a bit, colour wise like High End Envy Erin, the first one I believe that had this newer sculpt. Jessy said his inspiration was (loosely) Clash Control Erin. She looks much better than the original. I’d definitely get her if I could.

I’m not a fan of the Great Pretender Lilith, on which the Not Pretending Eden is based on, but I love this one! Gorgeous face and cute Chanel style fashion is a great combination - add the teddy bear backpack and hit the mark! I wish I could get her.

It’s been a while since we had a new character added to the Fashion Royalty line up - and it is nice doing it in a convention so that she gets lots of attention. The appearance of a new Latina character was teased one year ago at the Baltimore convention and we’re seeing her now. She does not have a story announced yet. Jessy said they’re keeping it a mystery for now. The inspiration for her outfit and styling is Style Renaissance Adele Makeda, from the 2006 Pompadour collection. That was the year I started collecting Fashion Royalty and for me it has two of the best collections for FR: Pompadour and Miami. I am glad that year is getting referenced in this year’s anniversary looks.

Another grail in the making! Look at that face! That attitude! That style! An amazing Agnes, courtesy of Jessy, who was inspired by Intimately Acquainted Luchia and Soir De Paris fashion set MFD exclusive from 2003. The doll reminds me of Queen of Everything and High Gloss Agnes dolls combined. Love her and am so sorry to not be getting her. During the presentation I heard Alain pronounce her surname as wees instead of the proper vice (after all it’s German for white). Is that a thing now or was it a slip of the tongue?
Gorgeous convention collection - are you getting any of these beauties?
