OK, I am going to admit up front that I cheated a little on this post. I couldn't narrow it down to only 10 designs, so I grouped a few designs together.
You will notice from these photos, that Dior had a thing for short jackets in 1951. I want to make most of these outfits for my dolls.
Warning, I may use the word "love" too much.
First off, we have this beautiful confection of a gown, sigh.........
What's not to love?
I love this dragonfly dress
This is Integrity Toys' Champs-Élysées Victoire Roux Doll her dress is inspired by Dior's dragonfly dress. She was created by the brilliant doll designer Chris Stoeckel. She is perfection, I don't own any Victoire dolls yet, but I don't really collect the 12" dolls.

I included pictures of this dress because it is very similar to the dragonfly dress.
I love these short jackets.
I also grouped the next two dresses with the short jackets together.
I love the bow on the front of the jacket in this picture.
Love the fabric of this dress.
A colored photo of this dress with a coat, bonus! I wonder if the sleeves are a part of a big bow.
I am not sure if the muff is the same one with this green suit, but I love it.
LOVE! LOVE! LOVE!
Notice that all three of the outfits in this photo are my favorites? Someone else has great taste too!
Adorable!
Same bodice with a fuller skirt.
This stunning gown was recreated for Gene by
JAMIEshow, I am thrilled to own this doll. The dress is gorgeous.

Last but not least, is this gown.
The last three photos are from "Le Petit Théâtre Dior - Making of "Mexique" dress". To see this video click
here. Be prepared to swoon if you love Dior, miniatures, and sewing. I want to see
this exhibition sooooooo bad!

I absolutely love the fashions that you have reproduced for fashion doll clothes. I wish that I could study these fashions with you. I would spend all of my spear time sewing with you.
That would be so much fun Maria.
