Vogue Japan and Enchanted Doll
Hey guys, the Christmas issue of Vogue Japan was released last week! I’ve been waiting for it to come out since we did the shoot with the photographer Lacey, in New York this August. It was a fantastic collaboration and I think she did an amazing job capturing the spirit of Enchanted Doll.
Although Vogue is sending me a copy, I’m jealous of those of you living in Japan, as you can just go out and buy it. I want to get a bunch of copies for my family, without having to fly to Japan myself, but I’m not sure where I can buy it in North America. I can’t wait to hold it in my hands and smell the glossy paper!

huge congratulations Marina, this is just such a cool thing!
the photos are amazing and i have to look right away where i can find a copy!
wow! ♥
October 31st, 2012 03:22
So charming, enchanting and lovely – like all dolls…
October 31st, 2012 03:22
The photos are GORGEOUS, congrats!!
But I can’t help but notice the lack of nipples! Did Vogue Japan not approve of showing the beautifully painted Enchanted Doll breasts?
October 31st, 2012 03:25
I bought it for permanent preservation!
There are very beautiful images.
October 31st, 2012 03:32
Bravo!!! The images of your dolls are breathtaking! I am captivated by them. You are the most talented artist! Thank you for bringing these dolls to life.
October 31st, 2012 03:50
Gorgeous pictures! Love it!
October 31st, 2012 03:50
The photos are just stunning! The effect with the water is totally wonderful, and very effective when combined with the draped gauzy fabric.
October 31st, 2012 04:25
They are stunning!! You must be so proud! Was the water a digital effect as we know the warnings about getting the springs wet, or did you throw caution to the wind? Just lovely!
October 31st, 2012 04:41
Exquisite! Thank you so much for sharing. I will be headed to my local magazine rack to have the distributor order some copies for me. I would love a couple of those pictures framed and hanging in my home!
October 31st, 2012 04:54
I still like your photos better. For some reason they look a bit washed out. I do like the compositions but I like your photographs more.
October 31st, 2012 04:54
So beautiful!
October 31st, 2012 05:48
Lovely, just lovely! Were the dolls on the actual cover of the magazine? WOW amazing!
October 31st, 2012 06:19
The images are enchanting, what a wonderful way to display both the dolls and the perfumes. So AMAZING!
October 31st, 2012 06:30

Exquisite portraits of delicate feminine loveliness. My favorite is the second one. But went wow with the fourth one too.

Beautiful photos!
Christiane – they appear in the beauty editorial of Vogue Japan, December 2012. I believe the issue is already available and has Kendra Spears on the cover.

Luckily for me I have contacts over there to help me

Beautiful photos! I especially like the watery ones. Though it makes me wonder, how Lady Skyler is doing after being half submerged? I know that you don’t recommend it…Did she get disassembled and dried out or did she have to get new leather and springs?
October 31st, 2012 19:45
So beautiful!!
October 31st, 2012 19:58
ohhh!! thanks Caesar Wong!! you sure its this issue? i can ask my friend to buy me this!! thanks so much!!

One fantastic moment for you and your gorgeous dolls…and one giant step forward for the ooak doll industry! Much congratulations to you!
November 1st, 2012 01:17
Stunning…just stunning
November 1st, 2012 01:20
They are all so otherworldly beautiful and on this day i dub you Master of Headpieces.
I find the setting of the Photo with the JO Loves perfume most interesting and the one with the three dolls has the most captivating atmosphere to me and they remind me of the Nornes (if the perfume bottles were rocks it would be perfect).
November 1st, 2012 04:45
@daniseyu – I sure hope so! It has a Vogue Beauty supplement containing a special called “Scent in a bottle” – although the preview on their Website does not show ED…

These photos I found simply stunning!! You should be really proud! The second and fourth photos are my favorites especially, the dolls are posed beautifully. I love the water theme, although you really had faith to get your dolls wet ;P

November 3rd, 2012 04:44

They look magnificent!I love this photoshoot very romantic
The doll on the cover really really makes me think of the supermodel Gemma Ward at the time when she was working on the fashion industry. I will do my best to have a copy of that edition I love it.
November 4th, 2012 17:18
Wow! Congrats!! The photo’s are so gorgeous and romantic.

@Caesar Wong
Below the cover of the magazine image is a link to preview the content pages of the magazine. Marina’s doll are under the “In the Mood for Fantasy” and if you scroll down a bit you will see a small picture of 2 of her dolls.

It’s amazing that all the Japanese bookstores that are willing to ship overseas are all out of this magazine, well of course with the exception of Amazon. I think I might have to get my copy from ebay. Congratulations Marina, the photos are beautiful!
November 5th, 2012 16:50
Marina out of all the magazine to be in….why the Japan Vogue…..I could get any Vogue but with the exception of Japan..Ive called places you would’nt believe….what fans will do!
November 5th, 2012 20:13
Marina you are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G !!! !!! <3
