The Jackpot Question

It's that night of the year. Dolldom invites you to create and recreate with these images of idealized elegance and poise, only possible in the realm of dolls, accompanied by fragments from the 1947 Frank Loesser classic.

Here comes
The jackpot question in advance:
What are you doing New Year's Eve?


Mel Odom's "Hollywood Canteen" Gene Marhsall and Zita Charles, as manufactured by JAMIEshow are ready for a sensational eve in classics by Ashton-Drake and Integrity Toys. Wigs by JAMIEshow. Gene's hair by Kathy Johnson.


Barbie borrows from her idol Doris Day in this Juliet Whorton black and beaded bling classic.


Mel Odom's "Hollywood Canteen" Violet Waters chooses green for hope in an Ashton-Drake produced gown. Wig by JAMIEshow.

Wonder whose arms
Will hold you good and tight
When it's exactly
Twelve o'clock that night


JAMIEshow's Eshe and Alejandro express their sense of style in a Théâtre de la Mode classic by Tonner Doll and in red beads by Joy Jarred. Ale's jumpsuit by Chewin. Hair by JAMIEShow.

Maybe I'm crazy to suppose
I'd ever be the one you chose


JAMIEshow's Lauren is icy elegance in a Regina Wentworth classic cocktail dress. Hair by Chewin.

Aah, but in case I stand one little chance...


JAMIEshow's Sofia and Lee are the final pair - classic in black and a touch of red wine. Sofia models Jamieshow's blouse and RDGdoll's skirt, while Lee is a consummate gent in his Chewin black suit and wig. Sofia's wig by Time of Doll by Ilaria Mazzoni. Italian style bar by Darren Cole for Retros.

Pelo Italiano

In pursuit of the perfectly scaled head of hair, Dolldom meets gifted artists who comprehend the utter relevance of proportioned hairstyling, as this element alone will make or kill a doll. Much to our delight, Italian wig maker Ilaria Mazzoni of Time of Doll, crafts wigs using a hard cap and applying the best quality Saran or mohair fibers directly to it. This method and her meticulous manipulations of hair fibers allow her to achieve styles that will make a doll look supremely well styled and yes, even more beautiful.

Not unlike the hirsute creations that graced the heads of the mythical dolls of Le Théâtre de la Mode, Ilaria's wigs are veritable gems of hair couture and as such very much worth the investment.




In this exclusive portfolio, Dolldom shows how Mel Odom's Gene Marshall, produced by JAMIEshow transforms with these beautifully crafted styles.Modeling fashions by Liz Cole for Retros and jewelry by Joy Jarred and Mark G. Harris, the eternal star of Monolithic Studios exemplifies the ultimate chameleon of style.

Brava, Ilaria!






The classic bob. In beautifully rich brown makes Phoenix Gene a more coquettish presence.


In her silk qi pao by Retros and necklace by Joy Jarred, Gene is classic chic.






A blonde pompadour with chignon gives Gene the 1940's elegance that many of her period fashions require. 


In her vintage silk and tulle cocktail dress by Retros, Gene gives us sparkle supreme.






A raven chignon and beehive combination will allow Gene to play villains and perhaps even a vampire.


But in this silk dress by Liz Cole for Retros, Gene is all eye candy. Necklace by Mark G. Harris for Mode de M.

Dressed In Holiday Style

The Holidays. End of the year madness. At Dolldom, Winter is a time to reflect. And to thank the Universe for her generosity and smiles. And for all those genuine doll lovers who share with us their passion and their vision. You know who you are and we thank you deeply and profusely. From the bottom of our hard vinyl, PVC, and porcelain hearts: Thank you for a beautiful year. May we share many more.

In this exclusive portfolio, Dolldom shares the beautiful creations of many companies as well as the awe-inducing talent of the most amazing freelance artists creating miniature perfection for our dolls.




Licorice Crush Madra is resplendent is Retros and Joy Jarred.




All About The Eyes Gene by Integrity models Blossoms In The Snow designed by Tim Kennedy.




The elegance of Tyler Wentworth is much missed. The black and white Signature Statement is a tribute to her style.


Oona, the mystery actress in Gene Marshall's world, goes for holiday cocktail's chez Trent Osborn in Retros and Joy Jarred.




Beautiful Bleuette. This reproduction doll by Raven of Seattle has the patina of an antique model. She models a cat print dress and a brooch - a gift from Joy Jarred.






The intoxicating beauty created by Julian Kalinowski and Liz Cole. These two artists, were they separated at birth? A OOAK Lilly Lalka by Mr. Kalinowski wears seasonal fun by Liz. Once Lalka makes her entrance and takes off her hat and shrug, the essence of elegant sexy impregnates the room.






Vintage Charmin' Chatty by Mattel wears beautiful versions of the McCall's pattern cape and jumper set.




The Hong Kong Set! Mini versions of Barbie and Ken are rare today. When found, they deserve to model fashions that capture their uniqueness. And who better than Liz Cole for Retros? Little Lilli was made a princess recently as she is the original fashion royalty - notice her pout.

May your days be merry and peaceful!
