Dress-up Doll Phone Case

This Dress-Up Doll phone case wraps your second brain in a mid-century paper doll sheet, with social occasions built into every cutout. Mid-century periodical inserts used this tab-cut format to let a reader rehearse identity through interchangeable dress, a sartorial play readable in the doll's readiness for costumes she does not yet wear. The central doll stands turned three-quarter, weight forward, her lavender ball gown falling in sheer petticoat tiers toward a scalloped hem. Pleated paper shoulder pieces fan out behind her like clipped wings, printed flat against skin-toned arms bent mid-gesture. Small white tabs mark her waist, hip and collar, the exact attachment points a child's scissors once followed to press a new outfit into place.
