For an unconventional round-up of Spring 2010 fashion, The Block commissioned artist Andrew Yang to re-create some of our favourite looks from the runway – on the tiny bodies of 27-inch-tall rag dolls. Lanvin, Marc Jacobs, Rick Owens, and Ann Demeulemeester are just a few of the mini looks we played with for this fashion story shot by Dan Forbes. The models are clearly smaller than most, but they certainly give face like the best of them. Check out the full photo shoot in the magazine, on newsstands now, and stay tuned for our chat with the artist himself.

I prezzi partono da 350 dollari ed ogni aggiunta (abito e accessoir) parte d aun minimo di 200 dollari. Insomma non si tratta di bambole da regalare ad una bambina. Trovate l’intero servizio QUI.
