Hi all, Just wanted to share this. I got my repaint from Juan in Spain and dressed her in one of Mikelmans Charice fashions ( name escapes me) and some of the red accesories from the Jason Wu Alyssa set. I will probably eventually do a custom dress for her, but she looks pretty good in this!

Juan does incredible work, and I am thrilled to have one of his pieces. I also promised a pic of my Dusk to Dawn redressed in the black daytime Audrey fashion. This is soooo cute on her.

How can you go wrong with that flaming red hair? I just love the heft of these dolls. They feel good in your hands.

Kathy,
Your D2D looks smashing! One word of warning, if you haven't done it already, be sure to give the black dress and gloves a vinegar rinse to set the color. That dress is a terrible stainer and the Silkstones stain a bit easier than the regular vinyl dolls. I've seen it do nasty things to vintage dolls, too.
You might already know that, but I'd hate to see someone ruin a doll. :-)
