Maybe you’re not familiar with the Project MC2 dolls. They’re based on a TV show that can still be seen on Netflix, although I think they quit making new episodes in 2017.

What I loved about these dolls when they first came out was the message on the box: “Smart is the New Cool!”

I bought a couple of the Project MC2 dolls, back then, because I wanted to encourage girls to get involved in STEM (Science/Technology/Engineering/Math) careers, and that’s exactly what these dolls were designed to do. Here’s an image of my Bryden Bandweth doll, which was a gorgeous doll with amazing long hair!

This is a photograph of Project MC2 (Project MC squared) doll Bryden Bandweth modeling handmade doll clothes designed by Chelly Wood. She stands in front of a mural-sized painting of Monet's green bridge over a pond of water lilies. She's standing on sandy ground. She wears a long-sleeved blouse or shirt made of white cotton decorated with tiny grey flowers. She wears long black pants that appear to be only slightly too long for her. The shoes she's wearing are black. The ChellyWood.com logo appears in one corner of the photo.

According to Wikipedia, “the [Project MC Squared Netflix] series follows the adventures of McKeyla McAlister and her best friends, who work for a government organization called NOV8 (pronounced “innovate”), a highly secretive group of female government operatives who are trying to protect the world.”

It’s sort of like a teenage James Bond group, whose skills as gifted scientist and mathematicians help protect the world from bad guys. Who doesn’t want to play a girl-James-Bond character? I know I DO!

Here’s my Camryn Coyle doll dressed in Colonial attire that I made to fit the 10 inch Monster High dolls:

I’ve created several patterns for the Project MC2 dolls, but they can swap clothes with quite a few other 10 inch dolls. They can fit into nearly everything I’ve designed for Skipper, but the hoodie I made for Skipper is a little too small. Also, keep in mind that their torso is a bit longer than Skipper’s.

They can wear some of Momoko’s doll clothes too. In the image below, that’s actually my Camryn Coyle doll‘s hand. I liked the way her hand looked in Romeo’s for my stop motion video series, Romeo and Juliet with Dolls, so I put her in Momoko’s Juliet dress and took photos of her hand in Ken’s.

In this photo, a Ken doll holds the hand of an unknown female fashion doll. The two dolls are dressed in medieval or Renaissance style garb (doll clothes) which were designed and handmade by doll clothing designer and YouTuber Chelly Wood. Their doll clothes are made of royal blue fabric, and Romeo's costume has some brown cotton and cream cotton fabric. Juliet's dress has gold brocade. Both dolls have royal blue Offray ribbon laced through grommets in their tiny sleeves. The ChellyWood.com logo appears in one corner.
