'Human Barbie' emerges from Ukraine – ‘living doll’, 16, claims she's had no surgery

Lolita Richi is the youngest 'Human Barbie' yet to emerge. She claims to be the most doll-like beauty yet.  

Lolita, 16, from Kiev, Ukraine, boasts the same improbable body proportions and blank facial features as a Barbie. She has a tiny 20-inch waist, a 32F bra size and wears contact lenses that give her a wide-eyed, doll-like stare. 

Lolita maintains that her striking looks were achieved without plastic surgery, dieting or Photoshop, the Daily Mail reports.

The outspoken high-school student, who is now temporarily living in Turkmenistan, says: 'I think I've achieved this image better than anyone else. I'm the ultimate vamp woman. 

'People have openly told me that they're jealous of me and how good I look. All of the boys at school fancy me as well but I don't like any of them. They are not to my taste.'

Growing up, Lolita was a playful tomboy who showed no interest in her appearance. 

She says: 'I never thought about playing with dolls when I was younger. I was always outside playing with the boys.'

It was only a year ago that super-confident Lolita first adopted the doll look. She has since gained a devoted band of followers on social networks. 

Lolita explains: 'I started dressing up like this because I want to look perfect. I think that all women should be well-kept and immaculate. I wanted to be my own inspiration. 

'If a girl doesn't have beautiful eyes then they should wear contact lenses to sort it out. If they have a crooked nose, then she must do something about it, whether that's plastic surgery or not.

'I had great features to start with and I just improved on them. My big breasts are natural although I sometimes wear a push-up bra to enhance them. 

'I have a gorgeous figure so I don't even have to diet. I just eat whatever's available in the fridge whether that's sausages or fruit. 

'I started wearing affordable contact lenses and make-up. My mother used to be an actress so I borrow her wigs. 

'I feel comfortable and confident in my appearance. There are many women who want to look like this.' 

However Lolita confesses that she does receive a fair share of negative criticism online. 

She says: 'People make good and bad comments about me online. I've blocked a few users who have been particularly mean about my appearance. 

'But I do get nice compliments too, I like it when men admire my hands.'

One person who is wholly supportive of her eccentric look is Lolita's mother, Anya Richi, 33. Anya is her photographer and captures all of the snaps that Lolita uploads online.
