Curio: Odd Doll

Alexa here with your weekly arts and crafts.  As Nathaniel pointed out, Black Swan has been quite an inspiration for graphic artists out there (with many a swell poster or t-shirt to be found).  But I think this doll, created by Sébastien Lepitre, is the most beautiful Black Swan creation I've seen so far.    


Sébastien started as an uninspired graphic designer and now follows his dream of creating heirloom-quality dolls and home products.  His Nina doll is so exquisitely crafted that I would think the Mulleavy sisters had a hand in stitching the tutu.  I can imagine it rising from the trash heap of Nina's discarded stuffed animals. 

Alas, while this Nina doll is sold, he also has a sweet pair of Grady sister dolls for you Kubrick fans, and a Pris replicant doll for you Blade Runner lovers.  

You can see more on his website and etsy shop.

Someone should mail Annette Bening one of those doll. So she can stick pins in it.

For me, it is the most creatively done Black Swan doll! And I love its black ballerina clothes and its posture resounds to an American girl. Doll clothes are really one of the factors which make the doll more interesting.
