Doll for 1 year old

What would be a good doll to buy for my 1 year old niece?
SIL has suggested getting one, but not a particular kind, but has said one that she can maybe get clothes for in the future. So I’m thinking one that you can buy accessories for to be added to at a later date?
Her birthday is just before Xmas so the doll for their birthday then accessories for Xmas maybe?

Ive also bought a potty and nappies from wilko for her 'babies'!

Thanks all. I’m going to get the my first Annabelle. My only concern is that as it is a bit smaller than the standard Annabelle dolls the clothes and accessories you can get will be too big? Or are there specific clothes and stuff for the smaller one? I haven’t seen any if there are.

100% one that can go in water (bath, sink, paddling pool, hours of fun!) without going mouldy and horrible inside (like the peeing dolls).
Got one for DS when he was around 1, played with it loads, DD took over and she still plays with it at 7,5, more than any other baby dolls.
The one I'm thinking of is slightly smaller than a realistic baby doll, has a soft body (stuffed with plastic beads I think) and plastic limbs and head, no anatomical torso details if yswim. It's a well known brand, Anabelle I think. I peg it up after a bath and it dries quickly. Very well made, certainly not the cheapest. I'll google now.
