An online BJD store I frequent, The Junky Spot, had a photo contest recently and I decided to participate. The goal was to make something out of aluminum foil. I came up with a few ideas and had my Limhwa ladies model the foil fashions. Above is Limhwa Lily wearing a fitted dress. The belt is embossed with a hand-drawn motif to provide texture. Each section of the dress has a paper backing to keep structure and prevent crinkling of the foil.
The second photo is a much smaller doll, Limhwa Sara. She's one of my favorite BJDs in my collection. I pulled out all kinds of fashion doll accessories and went wild. The gems are hand applied. I especially like the Integrity Toys ring on her pinky.
Overall, I can't say I would work with foil again, but it was nice to think outside of the box when designing doll fashions.
