The new W Club year begins with two new fashion packs for Poppy Parker

Before March ends, and after the registration period for the 2024 W Club membership passed, the first release of the year is two outfits for Poppy Parker doll, both of which are no surprise to club members. One is the companion outfit for the gorgeous 2024 W Club upgrade doll, "Angel Eyes" Poppy Parker, which was revealed during the upgrade presentation: the "Tweed Intrigue" fashion. The other is the Poppy Parker fashion based on Jason Kramer's winning entry in the 2023 International Integrity Toys Design Competition, "Boho Go!", announced last year.

 I could not find any Kelly Garret outfit from the 70s on-line that resembles this one, but it surely looks like something she (even Jaclyn Smith, the actress portraying her) would have worn back in the day. It looks perfect for the era and for the character, with lots of items and accessories that could even used with other Poppy stuff. Will probably get this for my upgrade Poppy.

Jason Cramer is a very creative guy and has awesome ideas in this outfit - from the textures and colouring to the faux-embroidery skirt print and accessories. Even me, not a boho style fan at all, am still on the fence about ordering this for my dolls, Jason’s genius is that great. And that bag is scrumptious. Bravo Jason for winning the contest and making such a wonderful outfit for Poppy!

Barbie celebrated her 65th birthday this year but it's not the anniversary dolls that make me interested!

Barbara Millicent Roberts celebrated her 65th birthday this year - and of course there were the corresponding collector’s anniversary dolls to mark the occasion (along with a slew of play-line releases) but it was not any of them that caught my eye. Instead, I loved a new release exclusive to Mattel Creations, available for sale on the 21st of March 2024 on their website: Barbie Styled by Design Doll 1.

BARBIE STYLED BY DESIGN DOLL 1

SKU: HRM31

Label: Gold

Collection: Barbie Styled by Design

Designer: Suim Noh

Release Date: 2024

For our first entry in the Styled by Design series, we put the spotlight on designer Suim Noh to create a fabulous new Barbie doll. Inspired by fashion illustrations from the 1970s, Suim captured the decade’s exaggerated style with a bright pink satin dress featuring an oversized bow. Accessorized with black gloves, stiletto over-the-knee boots, and rhinestone accessories, this doll reflects Suim’s vision of elegance, extravagance, and nostalgia.

• Barbie® Styled by Design™ Doll 1 

• Designer: Suim Noh 

• Label: Black 

• Face Sculpt: Claudette 

• Body Type: Model Muse 

• Includes Certificate of Authenticity 

• Launches March 22, 2024 9:00 am PT

• Limit 2 per user

• Doll cannot stand alone. Doll stand included. Colors and decorations may vary. Purchase limits subject to change at the sole discretion of Mattel.

SKU#: HRM31

What a gorgeous Barbie doll - and without the usual sweet smile that they have (65th anniversary dolls included). The sculpt is Claudette, which is usually, if not only, found on collector limited editions, and it is one of my very favourites, because of the high fashion look it has. Her face paint looks good, if you ignore the black crease line in her eyes that shows the dreaded pixels (I mean… they could have avoided that, right?). Her hairstyle is too simple for such a doll, but I am guessing it helps keep the cost down. Would have preferred her being in the pivotal body.

I love her dress and the colour combination - very French. Also notice that she has metallic jewellery and her boots are made of fabric and not plastic! All these should be self evident in collector dolls but with Mattel there is no guarantee. Too bad she is such a limited edition and will disappear in a blink of the eyes. I’d love to have her and it looks like she’s the first in a series, so I’m excited to see what comes next. She looks great in her box too.

The 2024 W Club registration period has opened - with three upgrade dolls!

The W Club 2024 registration window has opened and you have until March 18th to enter. What is the W Club you say? Have you not been reading this website at all?

Item # 91557
Holiday Spot
Dania Zarr™ Dressed Doll
The Fashion Royalty® Collection
2024 W Club Upgrade Doll

Edition Size: TBD
Price: $165 + Shipping*

*This doll will have a $30 non-refundable deposit due immediately, with $135 + shipping balance due at shipping time, approximately in Fall 2024.

Head Sculpt: Dania
Body Type: FR 6.0
Foot Sculpt: High-heeled
Skin Tone: Blush
Hair Color: Soft Ebony
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

The Story: When famous European TV personality Dania Zarr was "spotted" during a fashionable getaway in Rome, looking ever-so-chic and sporting a brand new sophisticated short hairdo, the look instantly went viral and was dubbed "The Dania"! Hair salons were bombarded with requests for that specific look, but no one could pull it off quite like she did!

Includes:

• 12.5-inch articulated doll with short rooted hair and hand applied eyelashes;

• Sophisticated polka dot dress with asymmetric handkerchief hem and spaghetti straps;

• Removable black belt;

• Matching polka dot headwrap;

• Hammered texture dangle hoop earrings;

• Hammered texture bangle bracelets;

• Oversized ring;

• White sunglasses;

• Red "patent leather" handbag;

• Contrasting polka-dotted ankle strap pumps;

• Pair of hands with long manicured nails;

• Alternate pair of grip hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

I love Dania with short hair - it gives her a very current Linda Evangelista feel (even though to me Eugenia will always be Linda in Fashion Royalty dolls). She looks stunning (Mothership screening) and rekindled my interest in getting an upgrade doll again, after last year’s none. Should we worry that the prototype has a badly drawn eyeliner or will it be fixed for production? She does give the intended Audrey Hepburn impression, as Jessy said in the video presentation, especially from her early days in Roman Holiday (Jessy talked about Sabrina and the b&w gown but they showed a background photo of a moped). I love the texture in the dress fabric. And what fabulous accessories! The bag is in the style of the Cannolo bag by Jill Sander (thanks to goddess Nevraforever for the help in identifying this!) I must say that this year’s prices are $5.00 up from last year’s (which was the same as the year before). Not much, but not nothing either. And it surely preambles an increase in general pricing going forward. 

Item # 82173
Sweet Retreat
Rayna Ahmadi™ Dressed Doll
The NU. Face™ Collection
2024 W Club Upgrade Doll

Edition Size: TBD
Price: $ 165+ Shipping*

*This doll will have a $30 non-refundable deposit due immediately, with $135+ shipping balance due at shipping time, approximately in Fall 2024.

Head Sculpt: Rayna
Body Type: NF 3.0
Foot Sculpt: High-heeled
Skin Tone: Sunkissed
Hair Color: Chestnut Brown
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

The Story: After all that reality TV drama, Rayna Ahmadi is taking a much-needed retreat in Ibiza! Looking sweeter than ever with a spring in her step, this much needed vacay is just what the doctor ordered! Well... maybe those all-night parties aren't exactly what the doctor had in mind!

Includes:

• 12.5-inch articulated doll with long rooted hair and hand applied eyelashes;

• Sweet pink flared tweed shorts with matching youthful cropped vest with "pearl" detailing;

• Matching pink satin headwrap;

• Removable Robin's egg blue and "pearl" belt;

• Additional removable "pearl" belt with drop "pearl" detail;

• "Gold" chain necklace;

• "Gold" and "pearl" ring;

• White "lace" socks;

• Robin's egg blue ankle strap pumps;

• Pair of long manicured hands;

• Alternate pair of grip hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

She’s a lovely doll, I’ll give her that. She even reminds me of model Bella Hadid. But, I already own Natural Wonder Rayna and Wild Feeling Rayna, both more fierce and stylish and powerful. She pales in comparison to them. If you do not own any of those two though, she’s a perfect buy. And very versatile. Her colouring owes a lot to Going Public Eugenia but adjusted for Rayna. Love the accessories (Valentino inspiration bag and earrings), could not care less about the outfit (is it Versace?). Pass, even though I’d love to have the accessories.

Item # 77253
Angel Eyes
Poppy Parker® Dressed Doll
The Poppy Parker® Collection
2024 W Club Upgrade Doll

Edition Size: TBD
Price: $ 160+ Shipping*

*This doll will have a $30 non-refundable deposit due immediately, with $130 + shipping balance due at shipping time, approximately in Fall 2024.

Head Sculpt: Poppy
Body Type: PP 1.5
Foot Sculpt: High-heeled
Skin Tone: Blush
Hair Color: Dark Brunette
Eyelashes: Yes, Hand-applied

The Story: When Poppy Parker was initially cast in her historic role in "Undercover Angel", the producers were left asking who else they could cast that had the charm, beauty and talent to match Poppy Parker without getting overshadowed? The only answer they kept landing on was... nobody! Thus, everyone's favorite teenage model turned TV superstar got the groundbreaking opportunity to play opposite of herself as "Angel Eyes"!

Includes:

• 12-inch articulated doll with luscious rooted hair and hand-applied eyelashes;

• Glamorous golden metallic disco-inspired one-piece jumpsuit;

• Golden clutch purse;

• Chunky golden platform high-heeled shoes;

• Gold-tone toy gun accessory;

• "Gold" drop circle earrings;

• Matching "gold" circle bracelet;

• Pair of long-manicured hands;

• Alternate pair of grip hands;

• Doll stand;

• Certificate of authenticity.

And there she is: the second Charlie’s Angels inspired doll (after Undercover Angel Poppy channeling Farrah Fawcett), Jaclyn Smith lookalike Poppy! Many had asked for more dolls inspired from the legendary 70s TV series and it seems David Buttry is giving them to us! She does not have a second outfit as the first one did (upgrade dolls come with one set of clothes) and they did show a sneak peek of a 70s style outfit that fits her and will be available later in the year to W Club members (see the video, link further up), but the first doll with two outfits was only $15.00 more and it really feels disappointing. I will be getting this one cause I love my Angels (and her name is Angel Eyes which also is a favourite Olivia Newton-John song), but the whole situation makes getting her not feel that satisfying.

If you are ready to join the W Club for 2024, go on and sign up here. And let me know in the comments if you will be getting any of the upgrades and which ones.
