When my daughter was turning two and wanted a doll, I said to myself, “Let me make her a mildly spooky doll with a Louise Brooks hairdo and a high-fashion wardrobe.” Three things kids love!

Against all odds, she does seem to enjoy her, though three years later the wardrobe still consists of the same two Comme des Garçons-inspired coats and a half-finished rhinestone Margiela mask.
