As we had written during the runway shows for the Spring/Summer collections last September, fashion dolls were quite a presence, culminating in the Dolce & Gabbana Sicilian doll bags. Well the dolls/bags are available to purchase, and the price is quite steep: 1450€ each.
The dolls are ceramic, encased in ornate window carry-cases, complete with hand-painted faces that resemble the souvenir figurines that were sold at train stations in 1950s Italy. The clothing though is pure Dolce & Gabbana. The dresses are tailored to match those worn in the S/S 2015 collection of the house, with accessories to match. They are 29-cm tall (i.e. Barbie size), carry a miniature version of the Sicily bag and come with their name engraved on a gold plaque on the bag/case as well as a serial number of authenticity.
