Luciana is my second favorite Girl of the Year, after Mia. I recieved her for my 15th birthday, and I really like her!
Packaging: I love how they give the Girl of the Years special boxes now! Luciana's space packaging is so cool. I will say, my favorite GotY boxes were the Grace/Lea ones though.
Face: The Josefina face mold looks really nice on Luci. Mine has nice face paint, and the old eye style. To be honest, I actually like Luci with both old and new eyes, so it didn't really faze me.
Hair: Luci's hair is a nice chocolate brown, with side bangs and a purple streak. I normally love side bangs, but Luci's drive me absolutely insane. They are sewn into the wig separately from the other wefts, and constantly fall over her eye. The purple streak is... shedding? I'm concerned. I don't do her hair that much, yet it sheds more every time I brush it.
ETA 7/27/22: Unfortunately, two years after having Luciana, her purple streak is almost completely gone, other than a few strands. Unfortunately, I see a head replacement in her future. I really like her streak, and hope other Luciana dolls don't have this issue.
Body: She has the new good body fabric. It isn't the old fabric, or the thinner one, but it's the new type that doesn't wrinkle at the neckline. I removed the body tag from the seam though. (I do this with all of my dolls: I clip it as close as possible, and use tweezers to pull the excess from the seam, and bam! It's like it was never there!)
Meet Outfit: I LOVE it! The galaxy print dress is gorgeous, and the fabric is so soft! It does seem a bit thinner though. The belt is nice, and the purse can be removed if you don't like it. Mine came backwards... the buckle in the back instead of the front. The boots are holographic and really pretty! The choker matches as well, and my Luci rarely removes it. The star necklace is story-significant, but it is crazy difficult to adjust. Initially, I didn't know it even adjusted. Her underwear is the new standard pink underwear used for most dolls. Mine came snagged, which was frustrating to see.
Personality: Luciana is such a sweet girl, even if a bit headstrong. I didn't feel the urge to change her character, which was nice.
Now that the bad fabric and eyes are being sifted through, I'd definitely recommend her. I think she's on her way out.
