Lottie

For a range of dolls designed to empower kids to play and be themselves, we love Lottie. THE ICONIC is the ultimate destination to shop for Lottie dolls online, making it easier than ever to inspire their imagination, confidence and sense of adventure.

The company behind the Lottie doll, Arklu, was formed in 2010 by Ian Harkin and Lucie Follet. Lottie was born from the duo’s desire to find a doll they could comfortably gift to young family members, without the overtly adult or over-sexualised themes that often defined the current range of dolls on the market. A wholesome doll that looked like the daughters, nieces and friends that would go on to receive one, Lottie’s design is based on the average nine-year-old girl (found by researchers to be the aspirational age of doll users between five and six). Lottie’s design aims to foster healthier body image among children, who can now play with a doll that reflects their own child-appropriate proportions and doesn’t place the often-unattainable skinny and tall adult body type on a pedestal.

Continuing this theme of childhood empowerment and positivity, Lottie’s world is built out through adorable play-sets, clothes and accessories that focus on fun outdoor and everyday activities (rather than the heavily domestic themes often found in traditional doll universes). Lottie can be everything from a master baker to an innovative young inventor, with a range of play-sets that encourage children to create their own version of Lottie's destiny.

Whether you want to foster your own child’s sense of self or find the perfect gift for the little doll lover in your life, THE ICONIC’s range of Lottie dolls and doll accessories is the perfect place to start.
