UPDATE: Thanks to Tiina for correcting my original post (I thought this was Danish) and for providing a translation:
Hi! Krinolina is a Swedish paperdoll. At least the texts are in Swedish. Rough translation of the text: " The fine Krinolina lived in a big mansion in the countryside. You must feel sorry for her because her upper body and waste were tightened so hard by the corset that sometimes she fainted. The crinoline elevated her skirts so that she looked like a big ship when she went out with her dog Fido. She lived like a doll imprisoned in her birdcage. All this suffering in order to look fine just waiting for to be married." Tiina, Finland
