Lady Luminous 17″ by Takara 1988 vinyl fashion doll #813-170. NRFB w/Stand & LL Box

Description

Lady Luminous dolls were introduced in Japan in 1988.  Takara  gave the 17″  dolls fashionable face paint to reflect what was happening in fashion magazines. Scaled to measurements of fashion models: 34-21-34.  Three points of articulation only: neck and shoulders.

The Lady Luminous doll stand is solid metal. She is attached by two metal rods through her feet-one short and the other very long to provide stability  The simple sturdy black box  embossed in gold with the LL Lady Luminous logo.  Three different vinyl colors – a very pale white, a honey mid-tone and a darker tone.  They have rooted Saran hair.  Clothing created from top quality fabrics with great attention to detail.

The fashion of  #813-170  is the archetypal 80s city slicker, power dressing par excellence with shoulder pads and the kitten bow.  There is a fully-fashioned polk dot blouse beneath the houndstooth jacket and pencil skirt.  Her pocket square is polka dot.  She has long straight mink hair.
