UNICEF x High Fashion Dolls.

 For its eleventh Les Frimousses initiative, UNICEF has tapped forty-two fashion houses; Chanel, Dior, Lanvin, and Anne Valérie Hash among them, to craft high fashion dolls reports WWD. 

The toys will be exhibited at the Petit Palais in Paris from November 26 to December 1, before being put up for auction at the George V hotel on December 2.

 Last year, the bidding for each designer doll began at $647, which we know is a little steep.

 But considering the proceeds go to charity (and that, decked out in a Chanel suit and Lanvin’s “Love” necklace, they’re arguably better dressed than we are), the one-of-a-kind creations are worth the price tag.

About SoHo Project:   

The SoHo Project (Sisters Offering Hope to Others), founded in New York City is dedicated to raising funds and awareness for nonprofits through creative and artistic projects, drawing inspiration from the iconic New York City artists’ neighborhood.

Founding sisters Lindsay Scheel, based in New York City, and Kimberly Scheel in Los Angeles, believe art is a force for positive change.  This year they teamed up to create opportunities for artists to use their creative gifts to give back to the community.

About Fashion Hope:

Fashion Hope builds awareness and raises funds in the fashion industry to help rehabilitate survivors of human trafficking. As stakeholder participants at international fashion industry events and involving fashion press, celebrities, designers, local boutiques and other industry experts, we engage a significant audience with the real images and stories of human trafficking, exposing what is perhaps the most gravest human rights atrocity of our time. Importantly, our global audience, sponsors, vendors and collaborators will gain true awareness about the enormous implications of human trafficking (i.e. transparency in supply chain and fair trade standards), as a by-product of our work.
