living doll

Such a dear

A living doll is a person, usually a woman or child, who is strikingly attractive or perfectly groomed—doll-like in appearance: She looked like a living doll in that dress.

The phrase can also describe someone unusually accommodating or agreeable: He helped me move on his day off—what a living doll.

Both uses are somewhat dated.
