JASON WU FASHION ROYALTY DOLL COMPLETE PHOTO WEBSITE

By , January 25, 2009 4:34 pm

Someone has sent me a link to a website giving photos of the complete line of Fashion Royalty and other dolls by Jason Wu, designer of Michele Obama’s Inaugural gown: http://woodsky.free.fr/LBX/listeFR.html  This is fabulous. You can see them all, huge variety, multi-ethnic, wonderful fashions. Of course, Jason Wu’s line for humans is at www.jasonwustudio.com .

Along with Integrity Toys, Jason Wu has held up the banner for multi-ethnic dolls, and thus multi-ethnic people, for years. He deserves to be an overnight sensation.

Teaming up with Integrity Toys, Jason Wu has produced the first line of 12-inch fashion dolls with authentic multi-ethnic face sculpts. While Barbie has long come in “black” and “white” versions, the face sculpt was the same, only the color varying. Byron Lars, first African American designer for Mattel’s Barbie, did produce some more authentic African American Barbie dolls with luscious fashions mixing African tribal dress with the fashion runway. But Jason Wu remains king in terms of authentic facial sculpting.

Constantly varying hair, makeup, skin tone, and sometimes the facial sculpts themselves, Wu has produced gorgeous Caucasion, African American, Hispanic, East Indian, and Asian Fashion Royalty dolls. See www.fashionroyalty.com to find dealers for recent dolls and ebay to find sold-out earlier dolls.

Finding early outlet for his design talent and aspirations by winning Barbie doll fashion design contests at age 16, Jason Wu went on to develop his own line of 12-inch multi-ethnic Fashion Royalty dolls.Here you see the earliest Fashion Royalty 12-inch dolls released by Jason Wu, designer of Michele Obama’s inaugural gown (see www.jasonwustudio.com for human collections!), and Integrity Toys (www.integritytoys.com) in 2003.

Causing a huge stir, the dolls were immediately sold out and tripled in  price (and more!) on ebay. Limited to 500-1000 dolls (Barbie editions = 50,000 plus!) with exquisite facial sculpts, fabrics, and detailing. Mattel’s Barbie has gone through complete revision in an attempt to “catch up.”  I have included some comparisons between equivalent Barbie Silkstone and Fashion Royalty dolls.

If you want to own a little bit of Jason Wu fashion yourself, you can search for Fashion Royalty Doll on ebay (category Dolls and Bears) for early dolls or see dealers listed at www.fashionroyalty.com . I can recommend Pat Feick at http://patspotpourri.com.
