London based Olivia Lee's Limited Edition Designer Dolls truly embody each designer's signature style, Zaha's hair is dead on! We'd love to see a few more rock star designers added to the collection like an ornate floral Tord Boontje, a super-minimal beige block Naoto Fukasawa and maybe a true-to-the-materials Tom Dixon. Before you get too excited, It looks like these are not in production yet, Karim was shot on-site in the London Design Museum shop.

The designers who are "designing" these artifacts need to have their head examined and the ones who endorse it like zaha and karim should be ashamed for creating unnecessary plastic junk. Lets not make design lose all its credibility.
Nice one Olivia, they look great, what a good way to poke fun at the cult of the celebrity designer and in such an amusing fashion. Keep up the solid work and we look forward to seeing more in the future.
This sort of stuff gives design a bad name.
dudes... you don't even understand the basis of why she created the dolls. I think she did a bold tongue in cheek statement that is spot on about the nature of consumers nowadays. Go find out more about the idea behind the design before criticizing. Such superficial comments only make design even more misunderstood.
