Becoming Gay

Gay Carrington is a star in the manner of those mythical faces that graced the silver screen when unadulterated splendor reigned supreme.  For glamour is alive and well in the World of Gay Carrington. Her exclusive mood-lifting videos and joy-inducing audio recordings are a necessity for all of Dolldom's denizens who live happier and more beautiful lives thanks to them. To honor the dynamic Miss Carrington, Dolldom and Sydney Chase, president and owner of the famed Chase Modeling Agency, collaborated on this exclusive tribute to Gay Carrington style. Miss Chase, so taken with Miss Carrington’s elegance and strength, took the job for herself – “For no one but me is gonna be Gay!” - as she vivaciously exclaimed. Dolldom friend Vin Trapani, make-up magician to the vinyl set, performed the thorough makeover. The wardrobe, in its majority, is the work of Beauty and Glamour maven Liz Cole, creator and proprietor of Retros of Seattle. The results are breathtaking. Miss Chase, upon seeing the photos exclaimed: “I am just thrilled to be Gay! I truly love her style and panache. It’s been quite the transformative experience.” 

Dolldom wishes to thank Vin Trapani of Vincent Anthony Repaints and Liz Cole for their support in this collaboration. Without them this unofficial, fan made Gay Carrington doll fest would not be as luxuriously grand.
