This week on Doll Break, it's (almost) all about Innocent World dolls from Groove. It was fairly recently that Groove started making collaboration pieces with major Japanese fashion brands, but with fan girls like me not b... more
Céline, also known as Citron Rouge, is not your average doll customizer. The darkness of her aesthetic is matched only by her talent with not just customizing, but photography as well. With a solid body of work on ba... more
