Our design team grew up in the early 2000s, so we were eager to jump into the Neo-Y2K trend - to celebrate taking a new spin on a retro style, the design team gave the Y2K girls a brand new head sculpt! Ashley and Mackenzie have a youthful face sculpt - with full cheeks and mischievous style - perfectly capturing the aesthetics' playfulness. - Ashley & Mackenzie’s outfits both have colorful neon motifs, popping up in their hair, shoes, and tiny handbags. The neon pink and green is contrasted beautifully against their tanned skin. They wear many iconic staples of Y2K fashion: chunky sneakers, lace camisoles, treated denim, baguette bags, and fabulous furry jackets. Ashley and Mackenzie are the perfect neo-Y2K mascots! read more
