RARE Skirt

Sometimes Stardoll has no imagination, so decide to give basic names to the items they create.

It's the case of the RARE I'll show you today called simply RARE Skirt.

RARE Skirt is a long skirt with four large flouces. The flouces make the skirt looks fuller from the top to the bottom. The skirt is low waist and completely cover the doll's feet.
Its main colour is so difficult to describe. Stardoll used different shades of yellow and white for the laces on the flouces.
I've found an interesting colour table with different kind of yellow, what colours do you think can describe better the RARE Skirt? I've highlighted the colours which are more similar to the Stardoll version.





You can find RARE Skirt in the Dress Up doll Zhang Ziyi (Dress Up Zhang Ziyi 2). Stardoll decided to propose this dress in Zhang Ziyi dress up because the Chinese actress worn it at the 2007 Vanity Fair Oscar Party at Mortons on February the 25th, 2007 in West Hollywood, California.

The Stardoll label is Voile and its value is Stardollars.

The real version of this skirt is a gown dress from Valentino Spring 2007 Couture Collection in tulle and lace, with a embroidered corset. So sunny and fresh!

RARE Inspired by McQueen

Hello dear readers,
It has been a while since I've published my last post here.

Today I want to introduce you a new RARE I've found yesterday for a little price, I even don't realize how much I've been lucky yet!

All of the most "fashion victims" and taste of style Stardoll's members recognize Alexander McQueen as an icon, a genious, an artist, simply one of the most appreciate fashion designer of all time.

Stardoll has always show admiration for the late designer, and has often released amazing outfits inspired by his last fashion shows. These dresses are really must have, because of their uncommon shapes, colours and style, characteristics that make them so unmistakable!

Stardoll hasn't done exeptions with RAREs. A great number of RAREs are tagged has "Inspired by Alexander McQueen".
Here I present you the "RARE Inspired by McQueen".

You can find in the suite of Phoenix (Phoenix's Suite), in the past there where a special Dress Up dedicated to this mythical bird, but it doesn't exist anymore (Stardoll's mystery!). As you can see the dress is a little bit different than the one you can own in the game and find in the Starbazaar. Phoenix one has different long sleeves (very beautiful in my opinion) because of the doll pose. Our version has long sleeves too, but different pose, slanting skirt, deep V neck and a light belt. I like the colour, shade of colour from hot orange to lighter orange, beige to grey/brown.





You can find this dress under the Voile label in Starbazaar and it's currency is Stardollars. It's not simple to find, I can say I've been lucky to find it for only 22 stardollars!

The real version of Alexander McQueen dress.

Released in the Spring/Summer 2008 collection. I love this dress so much. I like the texture, it seems so light and silky. I love also the colour, so iridescent.

Do you like Alexander McQueen creations? I'll surely present you the other RAREs inspired by his amazing works as soon as possibile.

RARE Inspired By Bill Blass

Dear Readers,
today I've bought a new RARE and reached 35 RAREs!
For this reason I'd like to introduce you my new purchase: RARE Inspired By Bill Blass.

RARE Inspired By Bill Blass is a vintage dress with flowers pattern, its main color is violet with lilac and golden details. It reminds a painting, something like Impressionism style (watch some Monet paintings and tell me if you see some similarity or not).

This RARE is a middle-lenght dress. Its skirt lenght is just above the knees.

I personally like the top: sleeveless, V neck with a cute collar and pink satin belt, make it seem so old style and romantic. These details go so well with the flowers pattern.

I like less the skirt maybe because of the pattern. The flowers are too much stylized, but as I'll show you is very similar to the real life version.






You can find the dress in the Ashley Tisdale Dress Up ( Ashley Tisdale 4 Dress Up ).

It was released by the shop Voile (perfect shop for this dress I think) and its currency is Stardollars.

You can find it in Starbazaar, sometimes it could appeare between 200/300 Stardollars, I guess.

Yes, it's easier to find instead of other RAREs. One of the reasons is that years ago it was possible to gift clothes connecting your Stardoll account with Facebook and playing Stardoll on it. Some good and old clothes were released as possible gift, included our RARE, as you can see on the photo (the name doesn't contain the world "RARE").

Below we have the real version of our RARE.
The dress is part of the Bill Blass Spring Summer 2008 collection.

                                                                                                                                              

                                                                                               
Obviously the real version has a better flowers pattern. It also has a different type of belt.

Do you like this romantic outfit? Perfect for Valentine's Day ❤
