  • Liza Corsillo is always sniffing out incredible gifts, and she recently discovered a perfect under-the-radar present for kids who are into dolls and their millennial moms. Enter the mini American Girl doll.

The article from *New York Magazine's The Strategist* discusses the revival of interest in vintage and nostalgic items, focusing on two specific products: 150-year-old soaps from the brand Barrister & Mann, and mini American Girl dolls. Barrister & Mann has reintroduced soaps with historical significance, originally made by companies like Colgate and Pears, which not only serve as functional items but also as pieces of history, appealing to collectors and those interested in vintage aesthetics. Meanwhile, American Girl has launched mini versions of their iconic dolls, which are smaller, less expensive, and come with accessories, tapping into nostalgia while making the brand more accessible to a broader audience. These products highlight a broader cultural trend where consumers are increasingly drawn to items that evoke a sense of history, craftsmanship, and nostalgia, blending the old with new consumer desires for authenticity and storytelling in everyday objects.
