The Doll suit is a life jacket for children to accompany them in water activities. The Doll suit adopts an inflatable life jacket structure, which can be stored as a shoulder doll at ordinary times, which increases children's willingness to carry, stabilizes the anxiety of children on boats, reduces the problem of children's resistance to wearing life jackets, and then improves the survival rate of water accidents.
The instructional illustrations on the Doll suit and buckles attract children to learn how to wear a life jacket and reduce the problem of drowning caused by improper wear. Passenger ships and cruise ship operators can give Doll suits to children as boarding gifts to improve the safety and order of water activities and create a good customer experience

Gansu Dangchang Red Cross Relief Team member Zhao Liangming found that the vast majority of the victims had not fastened the two safety buckles at the crotch of their life jackets. Some life jackets even lacked these two straps, rendering such life jacket usage ineffective. He stated that when the victims jumped into the sea from the bow of the ship, the life jackets quickly floated up and, following the body, got stuck around the neck, leading to difficulty in breathing and resulting in drowning.
