Most women get married once or twice, but she's walked down the aisle nine times. She is, after all, Erica Kane, portrayed by Emmy Award-winning soap opera superstar Susan Lucci. Just in time for all those June weddings is the Champagne Lace Wedding Erica Kane Doll, celebrating Erica's romantic 1993 Spring wedding to handsome, wealthy Dimitri Marick at Pine Valley's Wildwind Estate on ABC Daytime's Emmy Award-winning All My Children.
Every detail of this daytime legend's wedding ensemble has been authentically re-created just as she wore on her special day. Erica's mermaid-style gown of white lace with champagne satin lining and intricate beading is sleekly sophisticated, her flowing veil dramatic, her bouquet as lovely as the bride herself. She even wears a wedding ring inset with an authentic Swarovski crystal, symbolizing this romantic moment.
"Susan Lucci's overwhelming popularity and the phenomenon that has become Erica Kane exemplifies the glamour and beauty that makes up the Daytime Drama Collection," explains
Amy Miller, VP Marketing, Mattel. "The month of June is the perfect time for Susan to bring together the world's best-loved daytime drama actress with a fashion doll of the character she portrays every day on All My Children. Collectors and soap opera lovers will cherish the Champagne Lace Wedding Erica Kane Doll for years to come."
