Liz Taylor

This doll was a commission. The client provided me with the materials and photographs - this is the result.

The gown is pink satin with pink silk chiffon. The chiffon was cut in strips, folded, hand gathered, and sewn to the gown. The bodice of the gown contains about eight 'petals' on each side of the bust. The waist cincher is white satin with the pink silk chiffon overlay. The smallest beads were applied to replicate the pattern on the original gown.

The face was partially repainted. The original shadow and lashes were removed, the eye color was enhanced, the liner and shadow applied, the lips altered to coordinate with the gown, and her brows were 'corrected.'

Jewelry was created (because we know Liz is all about jewelry), and her hair restyled . Her handbag is of the same fabrication as the cincher.
