project – paper doll window at Magnolia
What a thrill to get to work with Juan Carlos of Magnolia to create an exclusive paper doll, and an even bigger thrill to blow up the doll 800% to create a window display! We had an intimate little party last night, made a little smaller by torrential rain, and so I freely enhanced the picture above to give you a sense of how the window really looks… below is the non-enhanced version.
Its fun, you can get a peek under her Carrie dress as you walk towards the shop.
I spent the evening cutting out paper dolls and chatting with some of my favourite people – above this is Carrie Hayes, who designed the dress the doll wears in the window. If you visit Magnolia, you will find books, giclee prints, and laser prints of the dolls for sale, so you too can cut out and play with designer paper dolls. The exclusive Magnolia doll herself is a gift-with-purchase – and since her wardrobe is inspired by the spring merchandise, you can choose a matching item for yourself if you like.
Thank you to all our brave friends who didn’t let the rain stop them from coming to share the night with us.
Here I am, visiting Magnolia the doll in her window while my party is in full swing. The window will be up for the month of June, if you are in Toronto you should go visit the shop and take a closer look! These photos (except for the top two) are all by Raymund Galsim. Thanks Raymund!
Big thank yous and hugs to Juan Carlos and Magnolia for such an amazing project!
