The Kouklitas

Andrew Yang is a NY-based artist who has created a collection of 70 cm-long handmade stylish dolls called The Kouklitas. Their faces are painted fashion-appropriate and Marc Jacobs, Lanvin, Frankie Morello, Alexander McQueen are some of the labels they wear. Soon, they’ll be travelling to London and Paris Fashion Week.
If i ever get a chance to visit Paris, one of my many stops will be Le Musée de La Poupe to see the Superdolls collection. Even though the idea of an elephantine building of dolls of various styles does evoke a chucky-like scenery in me, it is a must-see place. If you intend to bring back some musee-memories home with you, you can kiss your plan goodbye, because these couture dolls are a work of hard artistic labour; thus, extremely expensive to be photographed.
One particulary good news to end this post is that Roberto Cavalli has a plan to design a doll himself on his agenda. Hope we hear more about it soon.
