LEEKE Owners of Sweet, Honey, Bambi collective clothing list

That second dress is really cute What size shoes is she wearing? I was looking at the 8" Ann Estelle doll's clothes and thought they were really cute but figured they wouldn't fit. It's nice to know the might.

Wish I had some to add myself but other than Anne Estelle 10" clothes, I haven't tried anything else.

I have a Tiny Betsy--same manufacturer and body size as the 8" Ann Estelle. There is NO WAY that the clothing will fit a Leeke body. My Tiny Betsy is put away somewhere and I don't have time to drag her out for a comparison photo; trust me, the 8" AE doll may be only 2" shorter than the 10" AE, but she's like half the shoulder width, waist girth, head size, etc. and her hands are much closer to Barbie size than to Leeke. NO WAY.

 

That dress is adorable!!

 

I second that about her dress, and ooh, that wig is super-cute on her, too...

 

D'oh! I just realized I have a really cute Ginny outfit or two that are floating around here somewhere!

*runs off to look*

 

Just letting everyone know that Jpopdolls.net will carry new platform Mary Janes for Leeke dolls in 6 colors of shiney patent leather and Chobits Chi Mohair wigs in 6 colors starting in about 3 weeks. I have snow skin Honey myself and love her beyond reason I must go play with the samples.

 

Weee! I can't wait to see the new shoes and wigs So how did you ever chose between your snow skin and your basic skin? I love the way the corners of the mouth are painted in on the basic skin Honey that I have but I love the white skin so much. For right now I'm just keeping both until I grow the guts to paint in the corners of the white skin version's mouth.

 

It was very hard and I almost kept both, but my normal skin was unpainted and I had promised myself no more 2 or more of each. I used to do that all the time with other dolls, so I let her go, I still miss her though . I think you are wise to keep both, after all it really is not the same doll.

 

Hee hee, well if I had as many dolls as you I wouldn't do doubles either...lol If I sold my basic skin one, I'd have 2 dolls ops:

 

bumping for any new info. I just bought a Leeke Fancy, and want to find out what all my clothing options are.

 

I use 10" Ann Estelle patterns for my Ching and Sweet. They are a tad bit long, so I just shorten the hem. Here's a couple pics of them in some clothes I made from the patterns.





I bought the patterns here: http://www.morrisseyagency.com/dolls/estelle.html
Prices are great too.

The shoes I bought at Kemper for $4.00 a pair. Size 45mm, excellent fit. Here's a link: http://www.kemperdolls.com/index.php?link=product&ID=347

I got the mohair wigs at Kemper too, size 6-7.

Hope this helps!

 

Just ordered some patterns they look cool! Also loved the crochet patterns.

 

Thanks for this lead everyone. I'm going to dig out my Ginny and MA 8" girls clothings in anticipation of my tiny's arrival, a snow skin honey.

Salena - you're right about tiny betsy and tiny ann estelle (8" tall). I've got both these girls too. They're very skinny, almost half the size of Ginny and MA 8" girls.

 

My SWEET currently only owns her fullset/default dress, and has only a few other things, all stolen from other dolls.


This set (dress and pantaloons) was stolen off a Marie Osmond Tiny Tots doll. The waistline fits like an empire waist, and the dress becomes QUITE pouffy, but it's still sweet as anything!!



This was her first dress, and what she wore to her first meetup. It was snatched off an 8" Madame Alexander doll. It fits PERFECT, and the sleeves are elastic, so no modifications needed to be taken. (socks and pantaloons come from her default outfit, shoes taken from a porcelain doll)


These pictures are dark, sorry.


This one, which appears wrinkled and not to lie flat in the picture, is adorable!! It lies perfect, and is nice and poufy. It includes an underskirt, which is the lowest part of the skirt visible. It's ivory, and adorable!
I had to undo the seams on the lower part of the sleeves to get her little hands through, and I plan on fixing up the rough ends.
Bad picture, but it looks fine when her arms are down:

Oh, and that also came off a Madame Alexander 8" doll.

This one isn't necessarily practical, but fun for dress-up!

Snatched off yet another Tiny Tots doll!

A tiny, short kimono style dress, with little short pants beneath. Very cute
Recognize the outfit??

Why, of course!!
(I had to slice the tight ends of the sleeves, but not the sleeves themselves.)

As much as it makes me cringe, there are some brave ones among us....you can always remove your dolly's hands to put on tighter dresses/tops.
I'm not a fan of it, so I don't. But...you can!

I'd be interested to see what else turns up on the list!

(Her wig is from Kemper, too. It's far too big, at a size 7-8", but I am going to order her another in her size. )

 

I went to the second-hand store today and picked up a little TY bear with a sailor dress on. I wondered if it would fit Sweet...and it does! I didn't have to alter it at all. I know there are other TY animals with clothes on in this size...oh I just looked on the bear and it's an Attic Treasures bear. I bet there are some others with cute outfits on them....

 

1. Ginny clothing

I dressed my Honey in this Ginny dress (from clothing pack) upon her arrival. However, it refused to close at the back but this is not noticeable from her pic. I'd always thought that Ginny is chubbier than MA 8" girls and her clothes should fit Leeke better.


A little disappointed but not discouraged. Last night, I stole a dress off a Ginny and this one fitted o.k. but no photos yet as I couldnt take any just now. This has short elasticised sleeves.

2. MA 8" doll clothing

I tried the "lady bug" dress on and they fitted nicely as you can see below.
