Harumika

Bandai America Inc. has released a new product called Harumika, which consists of swaths of colorful and patterned fabrics, rather than premade shirts and dresses, that may be used to create individual clothing designs on a miniature mannequin.

Styled around a three-dimensional dress form that locks the look in place using a patent-pending Style Lock System(TM) with no sewing, gluing or cutting required, girls can create a new design every time(TM).

According to marketing director Danielle Armbrust, Harimuka provides an "exciting and fun" outlet for kids who are interested in fashion design to express their creativity.

The idea is to allow a child to find her own unique sense of style and encourage imagination rather than buying off-the-shelf doll fashions.

Harumika is available at Toys "R" Us and target stores across the United States.

What a neat gift item for girls, I would have loved that type of thing.

Used to sew my own Barbie doll clothes, broke my mom's machine more than once!
