In 1951, a five-year-old Dolly Parton unknowingly kicked off a legendary career in country music with a silly song about a corncob doll. Now, nearly a month since her passing, Integrity Toys is launching a high-end doll collection that shines a spotlight on the star’s life and the legacy she leaves behind.
Created in collaboration with Parton’s new Life of Many Colors Museum, the Dolly Dolls collection features a series of limited-edition 12-inch fashion dolls that re-create some of the singer’s most iconic looks at a 1:6 scale. The first drop includes three collectible dolls, two of which sold out within the day, with the third launching exclusively at the museum’s gift shop Sept. 29.

For more than a year, Integrity Toys worked closely with Parton and her team to capture pieces from the artist’s personal fashion archive in intricate detail. For example, the World on Fire Dolly Doll rocks her edgy ensemble from the 2023 ACM Awards, down to the tear-away globe skirt. Meanwhile, the Dreamin’ in Gingham Dolly Doll dons a classic, down-home look similar to what she wore in the 2007 “Better Get To Livin’” music video, complete with a blinged-out guitar that matches one Parton played onstage.
Rounding out the collection is the Diamond in a Rhinestone World Dolly Doll. Limited to just 1,200 pieces, this doll features an elaborate rhinestone-crusted white suit inspired by one of the many looks fans can see throughout the museum. All three dolls come with a variety of unique accessories, and even feature makeup styling designed to match specific products in Parton’s Dolly Beauty line.
“There is no celebrity who is more beloved than Dolly Parton,” said Carol Roth, who helped put together and manage the collaboration for Integrity Toys. “She is not only a global pop culture icon, entertainer, fashionista, and philanthropist, but she is also an ambassador for being beautiful inside and out. It is the Integrity Toys team’s complete honor and privilege to have worked with Dolly and her incredible, thoughtful team on carefully crafting a museum-worthy, beautiful tribute in doll-size that captures Dolly’s essence and unique style and that collectors and fans alike can proudly display and love for decades to come.”
The collection currently ranges in price from $165 to $185. While the initial two dolls have already sold out on shop.dollyparton.com, the Diamond in a Rhinestone World Dolly Doll will be available exclusively to visitors at the newly opened Life of Many Colors Museum in Nashville, Tennessee, starting Sept. 29.
