When Jamieshow/Owensu releases new promotions for forthcoming capsules, it is nothing short of overwhelming. The dolls are always extraordinary, and the complete ensembles are simply beyond anything that can be purchased for 1:6 scale dolls at this time.
Last year there were three separate capsules promoted for 2025. The first arrived earlier in 2025. Here is the promotional photo for the collection called Garden Party. If that doesn't make you catch your breath, nothing will!
There were three female dolls and one male offered in the Garden Party Collection. In addition, there were 15 female ensembles, five male ensembles, six accessory shoe packs for the girls and four for the guys, four pet kittens, four female wig styles in various colors and two new wig styles for men. That's a whole lotta merch!
These dolls are resin ball-jointed dolls that are held together with cording. Their faces are painted by hand and their bodies are hand-blushed. The edition sizes vary according to pre-orders but are generally between 100 - 150. They are sold nude for $475 and come with additional clutching hands, flat feet, dressing paddles, a buffing sponge, a wig cap and an extraordinary telescoping stand that screws into the base. The resin used is especially made for this company and it has not been known to yellow or change color over time like other resins. The darker skin tones do need moisturizing treatments on occasion due to the resin drying out and becoming ashy looking which is very common across brands of resin dolls. It's an easy fix and the results are always amazing!
I own at least one version of almost all character molds for Muses. The only female missing from my lineup is Kate; I have been waiting for a version to fall in love with but she's not been produced yet. Two new characters were introduced in Garden Party, so they immediately made it into my cart.
Jasmine is the first female character produced in the caramel skintone. Here is the Jamieshow/Muses promo of Jasmine.
Although there are enough clothing options, accessories, and wig caps in this collection to produce many versions of each doll, I often find myself using other wigs and clothing choices to create my own version of each doll. And here are a few of my versions to show how different she can look.
The first is using a wig cap from an Instagram seller Maovim, the shirtdress is from Salvador Lopez Arriaga on Facebook/Instagram, and the boots are Integrity Toys.
Next up, Jasmine is wearing pieces from different Jamieshow ensembles (Top from Garden Party Look 4 with skirt from Summer Kisses Look 8) and a puki-puki wig from Etsy.
The last look uses a wig cap from Garden Party, but the ensemble is from an Etsy seller with shoes and bag from Jamieshow.
It just amazes me how different JS dolls look based on wig choices! It's like you have unlimited versions of any faceup mold. The second doll to join my collection in 2025 is Jamieshow/Owensu Muses Garden Party Jasmine.
Although I already had two versions of Astrid, I couldn't resist the dramatic makeup on Garden Party Astrid. Here is her promo shot.
And my interpretation with a JS Rococo Blonde Wig and some Vegas feathers.
Garden Party Astrid has been a huge success with JS collectors. The third doll in my 2025 collection is Jamieshow/Owensu Muses Garden Party Astrid.
The final female doll from the Garden Party collection is the second Jamieshow/Owensu Muses doll to have parted lips. This doll seems to be quite polarizing with collectors. There is a lot of love for her but some collectors considered her an easy pass. Here is the promo photo.
I immediately saw Charlize Theron in this mold. Here is my interpretation wearing a Dominion Doll wig and IT ensemble.
She hasn't been changed out of this outfit since I put her in it. I think she is just perfectly presented this way. The third doll added in 2025 was Jamieshow/Owensu Muses Garden Party Keira.
The final doll from this collection was a male doll named Christian. He is actually one of the best male dolls produced so far, but I am trying to limit the number of males living here after succumbing to their allure in 2022. Here is one of the promo photos of Christian in one of the male ensembles. WOW!
Although there were fifteen ensembles for the ladies, I had to really limit my choices. The prices for ensembles ranged from $150 (beachwear) to the more formal ensembles going for $225. Don't get me wrong, these ensembles are worth every penny. The fabrics and construction are top of the line. They come with shoes, jewelry, purses, and hats or hair accessories. They are quite extraordinary. However, my budget just won't allow me to go too overboard. I will share my choices from this collection.

Look 18 (Very Christian Dior)
And my personal favorite Look 17
This one was inspired by Chanel
I also ordered a few wigs in various colors and one accessory set in natural colors called Ever Thine, Ever Mine, Ever Ours (Retail: $110 for pair of shoes)
Jamieshow/Owensu operates very similar to Integrity Toys W Club. There is a pre-order period where collectors make their choices and put down a deposit (typically $100 per doll, $10 per wig, and 10% on everything else). That gives collectors time to save up for the final invoice which comes several months later. Unfortunately, everything is so extraordinary (am I using that word too much) that it makes the decision making total agony.
As much as I am totally onboard with this brand, I do not recommend it to the faint of heart. Once you experience the quality, it's very difficult to continue collecting less expensive doll lines. I do believe the ensembles, shoes, and accessories are worth sampling by anyone who collects 1:6 dolls. The prices are quite reasonable for what you are getting. They fit IT Nuface perfectly and most will fit Fashion Royalty (unless they have a very tight bodice). I have links to the Jamieshow sites on the right sidebar of my blog. Get on the e-mail list, so you can be notified of upcoming collections.
