Gina Girl limited edition 60s-style dolls

Ginagirls

We're long overdue a feature on Blythe Dolls, but until we do one, let's take a look at some modern-day dolls influenced by Blythes - the Gina Girl dolls.

They were designed by photographer Gina Garan of This is Blythe fame, in collaboration with Australian artist Christina Gordon and with a nod to Blythe and 60s big-eye artist Lee and a nod to the 60s era for the outfits too.

Each of the four 10-inch dolls (Butter, Nico, Tuesday and Violet) are limited edition, with just 500 of each made, a number of which have already been snapped up after the Japanese launch. However, you can still pick them up online, priced at $42 (around £21) each. Sounds a lot, but these will gain in value over time.
