"Lola Anglada (Barcelona, 1896 – Tiana, 1984) bought this doll in Paris and called her Jossselle. It is a model doll that wears a dress suitable for great ceremonies, dances or formal dinners. Meets fashion of the end of the sixty decade of the XIX century, characterized by the great skirts volume achieved with the crinoline use.

With the passing of time and the technological advancements the role of mannequin dolls as fashion ambassadors was replaced by other systems, as dress-up dolls, prints, department stores catalogues, mannequin parades, photography, fashion show or internet portals."
