Sandman is a serious collector  Gender: Male Location: Greece Website: http://fashiondoll[ ... ]les.blogspot.com/ I collect: fashion dolls I purchase a new item: 1 Time A Month A few words about myself: I am a designer, working in an architectural firm.I have also studied fashion design and as a civil engineer for some years - but I never got around getting my degree. The world of design was much more appealing to me and finally won me over completely. I really enjoy doing what I do! I live and work in Thessaloniki, although my job has taken me to many places, in Greece and abroad. I enjoy meeting people, getting to know them and learn from them - it makes life so much more interesting! About my collections: Fashion dolls are dolls made for adults - not for kids. They usually wear elaborate costumes and have highly detailed faces and model proportioned bodies. They come in several sizes, the usual is 16" (like Mel Odom's Gene) or 12" tall (like Jason Wu's Fashion Royalty dolls).  My Latest Collections - see all collectionsFeatured Interview: Come On, Vogue
CQ: How many Barbies do you have? What got you started? I have around 30 Barbie dolls. I got started not with Barbies but with bigger dolls and then got some Barbies too. My first one was the Versace Barbie, I bought that here in Greece from a friend's toy store, it was intended for another collector but he did not get around to buying her, so I stepped in!
CQ: Greece is thought of as a very macho country. How does collecting Barbies fit in with that? It does raise some eyebrows but most people get excited to see them. Even men!
CQ: If you were going to re-enact a classic movie with Barbie dolls, which one would it be? Gone With The Wind would be a great candidate as well as My Fair Lady. And maybe even Chicago!
