If Monique Verbena had a second outfit!

I knew I wanted to keep with the flower theme, I initially was like “I have to use Alberta Ferretti!” But I felt that it was too similar to her original outfit. (outfits from Alberta Ferretti fall 2020 rtw pictured below)

I remember seeing this Rahul Mishra runway and thinking how beautiful these looks would be on dolls (seriously, go take a look at this runway it’s stunning) I knew it would be perfect for Monique.

I didn’t love the pants that matched with the flower top from Rahul Mishra’s look, they were too slim and I wanted something with more shape, similar to Monique’s first outfits bigger silhouette. I came across these Rodarte pants and thought the bottoms looked like flowers, and the movement of them on the runway was an automatic “yes! from me, definitely gives the dramatic, shiny, and flowery Monique look!

The previous incarnation of the Raveyard - no bench or lights. It makes Rexx especially hard to photograph, as they're p heavily in shadow being in the corner here.

Rexx is my favorite. The only boy style doll I've bought. Glitch looks so melancholy. I always forget that I've painted Demi's lips until I see others of her dolls. I will never understand why she didn't have fangs in the first place.

I love that Demi's jacket has a skeleton design on it, but it's impossible to see 😩 Also a white jacket? No. I gotta get some Angelus leather paints and paint that thing. Maybe I'll put an iridescent paint over top of the black or whatever I use

One of the pieces of art on Monique’s box was SO precious I had to scan it and color it in like a slayful coloring book lol

i am so back into rainbow high. deep aubergine practically ultra violet iris purple. ooof. incredible this doll even got made. Like with Shanelle, I'm so grateful for the shadow high line, they're not proportions I particularly like but the fantasy skin tones are off the chart amazeballs.

Monique is from amazon.fr at 32€ shipped which is about as low as they'll ever go.

I sealed every braid in a candle flame (I recommend fanning out the hair, adding a dab of superglue to each on a non-stick surface for faster sealing) except four which were damaged out of box and needed rebraiding, surprisingly it takes quite a lot of tension to get them just right. I think the floor length hair is excessive and have half a mind to give her a haircut but can't bring myself to after all that work.

She was supposed to be a body donor for Verveine (who has a custom yarn hair set aside) guess i'm going to keep my eyes peeled for another!) I can't find the picture with the yarn, going to retake it.
