Designed by Miss Mindy, a US-based artist, these downloadable dolls let you play dress-up or dress-down whenever you please.

Three [pin-up cover girls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/girls-nite-out) from Bizarre (April Flores, Nina Kate and Viktoria) have been made into paper form, so that people can do what they want to them, whenever they want.
