How to Dress Up an Aaliyah Doll

R&B singer Aaliyah rose to fame in the 1990s. She was well known for her sultry singing voice and her striking good looks. Even after her career and life ended in a fatal plane crash in 2001, many remembered her iconic tomboy-chic style. Aaliyah often paired baggy, outerwear clothing with glamorous accessories, a look that can be replicated on dolls. It helps to have a photo of Aaliyah available to use as a guide.
