I absolutely love Rococo fashions and have always wanted to make a Rococo fashion doll of my own.
Well, while doing some research on other fashion dolls I could hardly believe my eyes when I landed on the page for the unbelievable 18th Century Fashion Doll From Eugene Barrois c. 1790, shown in the picture above, from the Carmel Doll Shop website. She was just stunning. Just look at that amazing dress! And, that unbelievable hair. I just LOVE her.
