Today’s Printable Paper Doll Inspirations: Ancient Greek Dress, Corsets, Lyres and Pale Aqua

A ancient greek inspired paper doll fantasy gown with a corset and lute.

So, I have been spending some time with my big paper doll index and I have noticed there are a few tags with very few items in them. I don’t think everything has to be even, but I was surprised at how few Ancient Greek Inspired pieces of paper doll art I have posted. The last one was back in 2013. So, just like I created an Astronaut and a Ninja recently to try to flesh out those areas, I decided to dabble in the world of Ancient Greek inspiration.

Therefore today’s fantasy gown was inspired by Ancient Greek clothing, particularly the peplos which was women by women and fasten at the shoulders. Because I have a fondness in my heart for corsets, I added one over the top and her accessories are a scroll and a lyre, because everyone needs a lyre, don’t they?

Plus, they didn’t have codex format in Ancient Greece, so scrolls it is.

Other paper doll light tags include Russia inspired, cyborgs and ballet. Which one of those should I work on next? Let me know in a comment if you have an opinion, just remember: I always reserve the right to ignore suggestions and, of course, things take a long long time to go from idea to finished paper doll.

If you want to see more of that process, then become a patron where there’s behind the scenes updates.

  1. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of Ancient Greek style, there’s surprisingly a lot you can do with it.

    As for suggestions, how about a B&B cyborg? Or maybe a Marcus 2.0 ballet companion? A Russia inspired Poppet might be cute, too.

  2. I’d love to see some more modern inspired ballet, maybe a little tap and jazz thrown in too. Or modern. I’d love seeing little doll toe sandals. Though the Slavic part of me wants Russian inspired.

  3. Beautyfull!
    I have many sugestions for you:
    -Harry potter costumes, yes I am a potterhead
    -fary tales likes snow white, red riding hood…
