I had a request from a regular commenter named Sara to do a Marisole as a black and white printable paper doll. I thought- Sure, I can do that. How hard can it be? I forgot what I learned from doing a Marisole post in two different color schemes (a gothic scheme and a pastel scheme) that it’s harder than you might think.
Still, I think the outcome is rather fun. I openly confess that I never thought of Marisole in black and white, but I think the paper doll is cute in that format. And it gives people a chance to color if they wish.
When I was working on it, I did think maybe I’d start regularly posting in both styles, but then I decided that was just too much work.

2026 Update:
This post is a bit of a time capsule from 2010, and I’ve kept the original text and art to honor that journey. However, since this is such a popular favorite, I wanted to let folks know you can see this paper doll in color and download that PDF if you wish, and there’s even more modern paper doll designs in my Master Paper Doll index where you can see paper dolls grouped by style or theme or series!
