Before binding
After binding
I used the digital printing service from the workshop building of LCC to print my paper doll booklets. I made a silly mistake for my 1st printing, I didn’t check my format size on my Procreate which let my 1st printing failed. These were the failed printings in A6 sizes.
These were the correct sizes and after printing I went to the printing and Finishing block in the Workshop block to bind them together professionally.
Here are the outcomes and comparison between the wrong A6 and correct A5 sizes, as you can see A6 size was too small to let people to play along with the paper doll, the objects are small to tear it down and put them together. I think A5 size is the best.
After presenting my printings to my classmates, they gave feedback about it’d be better if I separate the pages since we need to cut out the paper doll anyways and I think this is easier for audience to make and keep their paper doll as well. So, I changed my layout of the booklet into a folder.
In addition, they think I shouldn’t waste the back of the booklet which I should move my introduction page to the back and try add some more description of each fashion items. So, I tried to put some fun facts I read from the book Queen of Fashion: What Marie Antoinette Wore to Revolution.
Physical outcome glance:
I’m particularly pleased with the placement of the invitation card image, as it aligns naturally with the viewer’s hand position when they hold the booklet. This creates a more immersive and interactive experience, making it feel as though the invitation is being personally presented to them.

There’re additional stitching for the final version of my paper doll set, which I also added a ribbon at the edge of the cover and back to secure the inner pages falling. It also emphasizes the Rococo aesthetic better.
