Meet Lulu Hashimoto, Japan's first "living doll" fashion model.

Lulu — a full-body doll suit consisting of a wig, a mask and stockings patterned with doll-like joints — was born from one woman's desire to become cute.

"I have always really liked dolls and for me, the epitome of cuteness is dolls," says 23-year-old fashion designer Hitomi Komaki, who created Lulu.
