The bizarre craze was started by a (blonde) Ukrainian model in her early 20s named Valeria Lukyanova, when -although already a great-looking gal- she went and got various plastic surgeries in order to appear more like a human Barbie Doll, while starving herself skinny and wearing elaborately-constructed makeup to enlarge the appearance of her eyes, etc. (apparently she already had the legs for it).
For some time Lukyanova was publicizing herself with a like-minded, 19-y.o. friend, (redhead) Anastasiya Shpagina, but since they reportedly had a doll-fight over who-was-getting-how-much-attention on a Japanese TV interview, the two parted ways.
The strange fantasy life seems to have appealed to other young girls in the Ukraine too, as it's now become a bit of a craze there... apparently escapism for those trapped in the bleak former Soviet Union. Yes, this 'human doll' stuff is as odd -or worse- than Japanese crazes, and of course Valerie Lukyanova is hugely popular over there as well; fits-right-in with their 'cute' addiction, and they always go nuts over blondes.
Heck, it's even caught on in Mexico now... I guess they've got nothing better to do than get up at 5am to start putting on makeup everyday, either:
The blonde's not half-bad in a bikini,
but overall hese two give me the creeps, man
(SFW, just a couple mild swimsuit shots)

Must have something to do with societies that are declining and depopulating rapidly, which describes both Ukraine and Japan
Just can’t put my finger on it exactly.

O_oI just don't understand it.
Ukrainian Women (like Japanese Women) are naturally beautiful, why they do this stuff is beyond me.

I don't know ;)
The one on the left has the best legs, but the middle one has best hips.
I hope they don't Barbietize themselves.

I was just about to comment on that myself!
I mean, I’d gawk at them if I encountered them in the street. But not in a good way AT ALL. Sheesh!

Thanks; attractive young women make this old dude smile. But, it’s getting harder to remember why...

Even all dolled up (pun intended) they still look better than the bagelheads!
