Created Especially For You
Your doll, your way; inspired by a character, a story, or a world of imagination.
All dolls in this collection are made to order, with care given to expression, colour, costume, and detail. These designs are not replicas, but original interpretations — crafted to capture a feeling, a theme, or a sense of magic, your way.
“I can't believe she is mine! I have followed you for ages on Instagram and I just couldn't resist another time! I have many dolls from many makers, yours by far is the most beautiful!”

READ STORYCustom Made Character & Story Dolls – Frequently Asked Questions
What types of dolls are included in this collection?
This collection features custom made Character & Story Dolls, inspired by imagination, storytelling, and themed concepts. Designs may be influenced by characters, festive traditions, or creative ideas, and are crafted as original interpretations rather than replicas.
Are all dolls in this collection made to order?
Yes. Every doll in this collection is made to order and individually handcrafted. Each piece is created to your specifications, allowing time for careful design, balance, and detail.
Can I personalise the colours, clothing, or theme?
Yes. While each doll follows a signature Upper Dhali® style, colours, costumes, and thematic details are thoughtfully considered during the design process to create a piece that feels personal and meaningful.
Some designs allow for a high level of creative interpretation, including character inspiration, storytelling elements, and customised styling. Other designs are created as set concepts, where the overall look remains consistent, with personalisation offered through carefully chosen options such as skin tone, eye colour, and hair. Details of personalisation are shown on each product.
This approach ensures every doll retains its intended character and design integrity, while still allowing space for individuality within the Upper Dhali aesthetic.
