Description

Height: 16.5cm

An original 1970s Pippa Friends fashion doll, identified as “Yasmine,” produced by Palitoy during the height of the Pippa doll range.

This example features the distinctive large painted eyes and finely detailed facial features typical of the Pippa line, along with long rooted dark hair styled straight.

The doll is dressed in a period outfit, including a textured blue robe-style garment with embroidered floral detailing, reflecting the era’s fashion influences.

The Pippa dolls were introduced in the late 1960s as a British alternative to larger fashion dolls, with a focus on petite proportions and interchangeable outfits.

The “Friends” range expanded the line with a variety of characters, each with their own distinct look and styling.

A well-recognised and increasingly collectible example of British toy production from the 1970s, appealing to collectors of vintage fashion dolls and Palitoy memorabilia.
