A woman claims to be empowering people to express themselves freely, by dressing as a doll with a gothic twist. Jess Soares, known on social media as 'Rotting Doll', has been dressing as an alternative doll for over a year and a half. The 24-year-old from Rhode Island, USA, usually spends an hour and a half getting ready each morning to fulfill her doll aesthetic. The routine consists of wearing colored contacts, wigs and contouring her face with streaks of blue makeup.
