The dolls are the 2nd collaboration between R&D and Ma'tto Garcia - who hails from Manila, Philippines and is a very talented and well known, fashion designer (for both real live & vinyl dolls. He is very much sought after for his Wedding and Party gowns - which keeps him quite busy. Now and again, he would delight a doll collecting friend, like me, with his creations but he is not one to mass produce anything. He finds making the same gown more than once or twice tedious and boring - like a real artist would! But his love for dolls and doll collecting gave way into winning him over and coaxing him into sharing his creations and talents more Internationally. The first time, was when we invited him to collaborate with us for the OOAK Susie doll donated for the Charity Auction at this year's IFDC Convention in Las Vegas. his creation got a very nice reception and actually raised a little over $500 for the Charity Auction - not bad at all, if I may say so myself.
And now, after a few more ribbing, we got him to finally agreed for a series of offering to the you all - dolly & Susie lovers. We all felt that there is no better time to announce and Debut, the first in a succession of Collaborative offerings between R&D and Ma'tto Garcia, than this festive time of the year. 
The Susie dolls' used are the DG POP Susie, with their hair, totally revamped and restyled; plus ever so slightly touch of make up... to better compliment their fabulous gowns. Great attention to details and workmanship was poured in to bring you these dolls - and we are pretty sure you will all agree. Both gowns uses the finest of fabrics and are meticulously hand beaded byMa'tto Garcia, himself!!!
Each doll comes in her own Holiday Box; Stand, Shoes & Jewelry. The dolls are $185.00 each (shipping not included). Be sure to drop us a line if interested... she just might brighten up your XMas Celebration!!!
