Asian fashion doll
Asian fashion dolls are fashion dolls that are made by Asian manufacturers or primarily targeted to an Asian market. Some have received international attention, such as with Momoko Doll,[1] and in 2005 the first annual Dollstyle convention was held in Tokyo.[2]
Many of these dolls have Asian or anime style features. Clothing lines may include Asian themes and in some cases Asian names (such as "Momoko" or "Taeyang"). Some Asian fashion dolls are dominated by Western dress, such as with Momoko Doll's lineup,[3] Pullip's wardrobe,[4] or the extensive Jenny fashions.[5]
