Nadia Phan

Nadia arrived yesterday. I haven't received an IT doll for sometime and was immediately surprised by her red packaging when I removed it from her shipper. I'd forgotten how nicely IT present their dolls.

Inside, she was securely held in position by white satin ribbons. Her hands, knees and waist were protected by plastic wraps.

By her feet you can see her hat and cocktail glass. Her other accessories found inside the accompanying box, were earrings, three bracelets, a ring, long gloves, her beautifully detail shoes and an extra set of hands.

Nadia's CoA was found underneath the inner box and states she is #430 in an edition of 1000.

I am pleased with her face up as the heavy eyeliner (top & bottom) and her full red lips are much like the flappers wore in the day.

She stands quite well on her own in heels, which means I can leave her stand where it is in the box (I never really liked the IT stands). Since taking the following photo, I have added her jewellery, though I needed to open the holes in her ears to allow the earrings to go all the way through her vinyl.

The dress is far too short, as I thought it would be, so some changes to come there. She has so much potential though and I am really happy with her. To give you an idea of just how wonderful this doll could be, just take a look at this photo I found browsing the internet, where her owner has made better use of Nadia's long neck.

This is not my photo and I'd love to give credit to the person who took it, but the watermark is in Russian (I think) and very difficult to read.

Well that's all for today my lovelies, have a great weekend!
