Enchanted Designer's Alice Coat

There has been a lot of buzz on the street about Etsy seller Enchanted Designer and her recent line of Alice in Wonderland costumes for AG dolls. We already told you about her blue dress, but this time we get to show you the blue coat! Other costumes from this line include the Mad Hatter, the Red Queen, and the White Queen. The items sell out occasionally, but she seems to keep creating them and listing them.

According to our research, the Alice project seemed to start off as a custom commission from an avid AG collector who wanted the outfits from the new film in AG size. So luckily for the rest of us, Enchanted Designer made extras for her Etsy shop. Huzzah!!!

So we purchased the blue coat (which Alice wears at the end of the film) to go with our Drommer0 blue Alice dress, which we posted about here. The two items weren't exactly designed to go together, so the bow around the waistline of the dress and the overall fullness of the dress sort of interfered with the hang of the coat. But it still looked good enough for us. I imagine the coat fits perfectly over the Enchanted Designer version of the Alice dress. :)

So for our photo shoot, Stella wanted to hang out with her Emily, The Corpse Bride, doll. Stella is our resident Tim Burton fanatic and she wanted to bring together "Alice" and Emily. For the initial images we put the coat over the Drommer0 dress, and for the later set we put on some Liberty Jane leggings, boots, and a Doll Closet top to go under the coat in order to show you 1) how it fits without our semi-bulky dress under it and 2) how it can also work as a modern Neo-Victorian coat as well.

Enjoy the photos!

What a lovely coat. And Emily looks perfect standing next to Stella.

Oh my goodness, that coat is wonderful! Stella looks gorgeous in it! Sophie would be so jealous, I'm sure.

I love your Emily doll! I love the character of Emily (but then I love Helena Bonham Carter like whoa!), and the doll of her is simply beautiful.

Ooh, and you totally posted the Tim Burton-related post on the right day. May 26th is Helena's birthday! :)

I love the Corpse Bride. I'm so enjoying watching your collection blossom at a rate I could never match. You also buy many items I would not. I really enjoy living vicariously through your blog and love the pics.

Thank you!
