Product Description
One of the hottest trends in the doll world today is the making over -- from costumes, to hairstyles, to make-up of popular dolls. This volume, even better than the first one, demonstrates how a creative touch can transform an average-looking doll into a glamourous showgirl, a fashion statement, or even a whimsical creature of fantasy. Fifty artists from all over the world have sent examples of their latest work transforming BARBIE, Gene, Tiffany Taylor, Candi, Billy, Cissy and other popular dolls into one-of-a-kind works of art. The author has added a chapter 'How to Create Your Own Fashion Wonder', with 67 steps explaining how-to make recreations that will tempt even the least artistic doll lover to try!
