Empress
Renee is a gift for the wife of a co-worker. I've never met her personally,
but, from her loving husband's description, she sounds like a fabulous
lady! I made this doll in one evening, so I did not get the chance
to do more elaborate styling with her kimono (such as beading) or enhance
her facial paint. But her coloring works nicely with the red roses
that adorn her hair (not that you can tell either from these hastilly taken
pictures). She's formally a KB Toys Style Barbie. Her kimono
is created from a black and white cotton print with a black satin-like
collar and a silver-toned sash! The details of the kimono are not
too clear in these pics, but I'll be using a kimono on two of the next
five dolls I finish. I've included a link for site where I purchased
the kimono pattern for $1 in the links section for those of you interested
in trying out this simple yet elegant design yourselves!!
