Plus the puppets are nothing like fashion dolls. End of story. Oh and to “why not” – I ahd never seen the Marie Claire shoot as i never buy it. Plus the puppets are nothing like fashion dolls.

To all others, please note the ffollowing before judging things too harsh: 1. The incredible Indiand designers did not have the dolls available firsthand to fit the clothes, they had to use a basic pattern to do it. So the work they have done is indeed incredible. Some of the outfists had such a detail on them that I have never seen in doll outfits. 2. The dolls are just dolls. So rigid hands or not, they simply cannot pose or move like humans do. 3. If they loook mean it is because they are not Barbie cute dolls but fashion dols, made and sold to a very specific target group. They have to look like models, hence the make up and the pouts and the severe looks. 4. A big thanks to Nandini Bhalla, the Grazia editor who co-ordinated all this, her work was amazing. Getting the designers to make all this stuff and then sending it out to Greece for me to shoot and have this final result was not easy. 5. Shooting dolls 12" or 16" tall in fashion clothes is not an easy thing to do. Just try it and let me know how it goes. I have been doing it for some time now and believe me, it is not easy. For all of you who like the result, check my blog for more. Thanks again to Grazia for this unique opportunity and thanks to High Heel Confidential for featuring this online.
