new york dolls



I’m absolutley gaga for these rag doll replicas of Anna Wintour and Grace Coddington! Aren’t they great? Barneys New York commissioned Brooklyn artist Andrew Yang to create them in celebration of Fashion’s Night Out. They’re part of the artist’s Kouklitas line of fashion dolls (be sure to check out some of his work— it's seriously amazing). The Anna and Grace dolls feature hand-painted faces and couture-worthy outfits. Oh, and in case you were wondering, the Anna doll comes complete with removable sunglasses. These pieces are currently up for auction on CharityBuzz.com – I so wish I could bid!

wouldn't it be fab to bid on these pieces? they'd look so good in a bookshelf. I'm curios to see who ends up with them..
