Hi! I was wondering what other dolls you can steal clothes from for your tinies? I was imagining you could use Kelly/Shelly clothes for some of the smaller girls but was wondering, would Amanda Jane dolls clothes be any good for some tiny bjd's? I only ask as I bought one on the flea market tonight for 25p imagining that would about be the size of some tinies..... she's between 18-20cm tall. Anyway, before i go buying a tiny, would be nice to know what i can do besides buying some of the way expensive tiny clothes.... you know.. until i can afford them
Depending on the size of the tiny. Some Bratz and Soda pop girls clothes fit. For the larger tinies mix and match barbie clothes fit
Madame Alexander 8" things fit CherishDoll Chubby and will fit the Hana angel/devil with some waistline alterations (they are thinner than the MA dolls). I have bags full because I used to collect the international MAs and sold them all nude so I could keep their clothes for Tinies. I have some miniature-Barbie things (looks like a 1970's thing?) that fit my Elfdoll Tinies. and Kelly/Tommy clothes fit the Oriendoll So Ji's that I have and my Pipos Namoo. Roxydoll Becys can wear some Tonner Tiny Kitty things (if the waist isn't fitted) and some Barbie things, if they aren't too long.
At the bottom of this nice article about Tinies in Dollicieux (online BJD magazine) is a chart that groups many tinies roughly by size and also lists some commercial dolls whose clothes may fit that group: http://www.dollicieux.com/vol1iss9/spotlight.html And from my own experience and what I have read/seen.... 14cm Elfdoll - Some Kelly shoes (jellies, sandals, one straps), Kelly pants as capris, some Kelly short dresses as tops, Dawn clothes that are not tight in the waist and do not have tight sleeves (modern Checkerboard Dawn clothes are often shifts that fit), Bratz Babyz, Bratz Kidz, maybe Winx Banji - Mini Barbie Princess with sleeves removed and wide armholes, Bratz Babyz (not Kidz), Winx, Tiny Betsy shoes Bambicrony - some loose-cut or very stretchy Barbie clothes, Ann Estelle (a bit loose), Bitty Bethany (a bit loose), LeeAnn doll clothes (heard boy stuff is looser), some shoes made for commercial dolls (LeeAnn? Bitty Bethany?) Limhwa ToYou - Takara Jenny clothes, and loose Momoko/Blythe clothes (must have large enough armholes and sleeves) Carolyn
Cherishdoll can wear Ginny clothes, Bambicrony can wear some Patsyette clothing. Not all Kelly clothing fits my OD So-Dong, but a lot does. The tiny Bratz Baby stuff fits her too, as well as some of the dresses from the MA HappyMeal dolls. Soom Aren (and I assume Uyoo) fits almost all the Barbie stuff and Takara Jenny stuff. Don't know about NDL Lucy yet, she's on the way. The one night I had a Banji, I fit her in one of the Bratz Kidz outfits, but it's too tight for my OD. That's all I can contribute at this point.
Notdoll Lucy wears Tonner's Tiny Betsy & Tiny Ann Estelle clothes the best, albeit a bit loose in the waist. I *heart* my Lucy! Roxy Yam wears Kish's Ellery very well as well as Tonner's Wee Patsy, although I have squeezed her into one or two Kelly/Sheely hand-made things. OD-Ji wears K/Shelly best and looks fine in Wee Patsy's togs. My new Pixie Lily wears Riley's things best and can fit Vogue Ginny's things (though they are too big in the waist) Shoes don't fit at all. Does any one fit Ginny's shoes? I have several pairs that need a home.
A few more dolls and sizes I have that are not already mentioned: LaTi Green can wear some of Tonner's Ann Estelle items, if they are long enough. They are usually too wide for my tastes, though. Boneka 28 is perfect if the bodice is smocked or tighter. Boneka 24 works even better than 28, if the hem can be lengthened enough. Affordable Design's LeeAnn jeans do not fit, they are too short and tight. LeeAnn's shoes, skirts, blouses and dresses do fit nicely, though. Some of Kish's Bitty Bethany items will work, but mostly they are too wide. LaTi Yellow can wear Kish Ellery sizes, except for the hats or bonnets, they are too small. Boneka 15 fits perfectly. Kish Riley shoes work well, too. LTLine Fam also fits these same sizes. Serendipity Lovely Freyja can wear some of Tonner's Marley Wentworth and Ann Estelle outfits. She looks fabulous in the frothy pink Marley outfit named "Party of the Flowers," and the "City Style" jeans and coat outfit looks good, too. The long-waisted yellow Victorian dress does not look good on Lovely Freyja, though! It is just too long! She can wear Boneka 24 if the skirt can be lengthened. Ann Estelle items are usually too wide in the waist, but I have a few items that look nice on Lovely Freyja. I think the Ann Estelle dress that looks best is named "Flower Girl" and has a high waist and very long skirt. I have not found any shoes that I think fit well, they are usually too wide. Serendipity Cumi and AGA Fairy can wear very tight Boneka 15 and Riley shoes, and the 5 inch Madame Alexander fashions. Effanabee Wee Patsy fashions fit well, too. ElfDoll Hana and Orient Doll Joong can wear Riley and Tiny Betsy/Ann Estelle clothes. Sometimes they are too short, but it all depends on the style and what you like. Orient Doll So can wear Boneka 10. Hope this helps! Sabrina
I had a Wishel and I was able to get him into some Kelly and Tommy clothes. And I found an off-brand kelly type doll whose clothes also fit.
I have 2 Orient Doll Sos and 2 Pocket Fairies. OD Sos: I found that some Kelly/Tommy clothes fit. Kelly shoes should fit the ODs (Tommy shoes do) but they are a tad difficult to get off the feet (or maybe I'm a little too delicate when it comes to pull shoes off but I don't want to break the string holding the feet on). The clothes that fit well are the tops/dresses that open completely in the back (I couldn't get the tops/dresses on that were partially sewn up the back). The pants fit but are difficult to get on (one must persevere) but are fine once on. Pocket Fairies: Madame Alexander's Petite Playhouse doll clothes work. LM
im getting too tempted by tinies... more and more by the day! Now that I know it isn't impossible to clothe them for less than $40 I will probably most definately get one. I have my eye on Bobobie Erin, OD So Ji, Lati Yellow Miel, etc. lol My wants are huuuuuuuge.... my budget isn't.
AR little Giennies fit the Kelly / Shelly clothing and shoes however I do not recomend the stiff mary jane shoes, they are a PITA to get off. Any of the rubbery shoes like the sandals or sneakers are good, and also the ballet flats (which are stiffer but no trouble due to the shape)
Did I read somewhere that NDL Lucy can wear the Only Hearts Club clothes and shoes? I hope so, I bought a doll yesterday to strip for my Lucy when she finally arrives.
Lucy looks great in Bratz (regular, not the new sister size), although the pants are too long, as are the sleeves. Same thing with the Only Hearts. The skirts and short sleeve tops look fine on her, although I only have the one outfit. I'm afraid to try & force the shoes on her as they may never come off!
Lucy can wear some Barbie shoes. I have plain black pumps that fit her perfectly, and some white pumps that don't fit as well, and also white sneakers. More elaborate shoes don't seem to fit at all, and I think boots would be too hard to get off.
Thanks SisterCuervo and Chraurelius. I have bunches of Barbie shoes I can try, and I'll be careful if I try the OHC shoes on her. The outfit should be ok. It's a skirt and top with long striped leggings. Now if she'll only get here!
My Lucy and Wishel got a box of Kelly clothes as a gift and between them they can wear almost everything. Kelly tops are crop tops for Lucy and a little tight on Wishel but fit OD So's just right. Kelly shoes that are flexible can fit both if they have open toes. Barbie slides fit Lucy well. Lucy's legs are twice as long as an OD or Wishel so long pants come just below or at the knee. She is more slender than Wishel (who is guite chunky compared to So. but tiny compared to Erin.) Lucy has a MA Micky Meal Blue Fairy dress that I used as a pattern to make other things. Lucy's head is very small so a 4" wig needs to be firmly attached 3" would be better if you can find them. The only tinys I have actually owned or held are those three plus Namoo who spent only 10-12 hours at my home for a stop over on the way to Lolly's My Lovely Freyja can wear loose Vogue and MA dresses. I made her some shorts from the Yo patterns on DOA and knitted her a sweater. OHC shoes are way too big for Lucy beause she has very skinny feet, but would probably fit Eric or Erin Hope this helps someone.
The 10-12" lines with childish/chubby bodies, like Cutie Delf & Petite Ai can wear Bleuette clothing, although it will be a little loose. Bleuette is a French doll who was made from c.1905-1950s or 60s. She is associated with a newsletter aimed at teaching little girls to sew, crochet, and knit. There are a lot of newsletters in that stretch of time, with lots of patterns to be used or adapted and used. There was also, a few years after the doll started, a commercial doll line. Ann in CT
Nikki clothes fit Lati white. Even the shoes. Not sure if Mattel is still making Nikki though. Hugs Mary-Lee
Bratz (regular size) and Only Hearts Club is what I use. OHC shoes fit, but I think Blythe shoes fit too?
Mine is wearing Barbie shorts, and one of the Barbie outfits I bought for cheap looks okay, though not wonnnnderful by any means. It's a tennis dress, pale blue with a little racket printed on the upper left chest. My Joong needs more clothes, too. Ann in CT
Great about Bratz and OHC stuff! I have a boatload of Bratz stuff, one OHC outfit, including shoes, and a Licca outfit.
The outfits don't go on sale very often here at our Walmart, so I don't have any bratz stuff. I did find ohc at Winners, but it was still pricey. Hugs Mary-Lee
Yah, the OHC stuff is pricey. I bought a whole doll, stripped her, then dressed her in a little Disney fairy outfit and gave her to my mom. I'd been picking up the Bratz packs here and there, then got lucky and bought a bag of stuff from SisterCuervo. I also have one cute Licca outfit that I bought on ebay.
Speaking strictly from my experience the Soom Mini Gems can wear most of the Barbie stuff (as previously mentioned), My Scene, 1/6 Azone, and Sugar Mag. I'm quickly becoming a huge fan of Azone clothing because it's worth the expense. Very well made stuff. I'm just guessing that the Souldoll Littles like Metel could wear most of the same clothes. Also - for OHC stuff if you have a Tuesday Morning store nearby check them out for bargins on OHC, Barbie, and Bratz clothing.
It depends. Metel's bottom is bigger, as are her feet. So pants don't work on her, nor do some of the tighter skirts. I had a Metel, and lovely as she is, we just didn't bond. I'm much happier with my Aren.
Oh good, then Eric should be very close to Lati Yellow size, I have tons of clothes for them. Thanks Hugs Mary-Lee
My Joong-Choo has arrived, yay! This is what I've discovered about clothing..Bratz jackets fit, the 2 bathrobes I have fit, but most everything else is iffy. The skinny tops barely fasten, and seem to interfere with her shoulder movement. Most of the pants do not fit, and would be too long if they did. The skirts do fit, sort of, if you cut out the panties. The skirt to the OHC outfit is tight, but the top and shoes fit. Unfortunately, the stuff is too pricey for me to take chances with much else. However, the one Licca outfit I have fits her just about perfectly, including the stockings and shoes. Hurray! Also the one Blythe outfit I purchased from PuddingPig almost fits. This means that I can probably use Licca/Blythe patterns to sew for her. The one pair of 'heels' that I bought for my Pullips fit Choo's foot, but her ankle does not 'bend' enough for her to really wear them. She looks like she's leaning back, standing on her heels. Oh well, like most pre-teens, she'll just have to wait for her first real pair of heels.
Yes, OD Jong can wear Riley clothes, but her arms and legs are a bit longer. Bambicrony can wear Boneka 24 cm clothes that arre made for the 10" Boneka dolls
Elfdoll Hana can wear some Blythe & Licca clothing, depending upon the style- she has such sweet childlike little shoulders, that tops/dresses with thin straps tend to fall off...
I will be putting together a Hana collection for winter. She has been here almost a year, and still laying in my drawer . . . poor dollie. She is much thinner than Riley. When I get her jeans photographed, I will put the 2 together, I am sure dresses and rompers would fit, but not anything fitted. Hugs Mary-lee
I'm looking for clothing for my BB girl, but am not having much luck finding what popular doll clothes she will fit. I know Anne Estelle stuff should, but we don't have her stuff where I am... Any other suggestions? I haven't got her yet so it's harder.
If you sew, look up Bleuette. There's a pattern closet with quite a lot of patterns--Bleuette has patterns from 1905-1950(?). You might have to modify the patterns slightly so they fit, as Bleuette has a sturdy or pudgy build, but all the styles! I've made some for my Cutie Delf and Petite Ai, and working on DIM Choseol's, where I made the chest or waist measurements (plus a bit) of the doll match the pattern measurements, and just reduced on a copy machine. Some patterns needed a little more length after they'd been made the right width. Anne Estelle, Boneka, BarbieTM-KenTM shirts, there are others, but I don't know them well. sorry. : Ann in CT
Unfortunately, it's no longer being published. You can check out the other publications of it by going to the archives.. Cheers, LM
Bumping for a question- Blythe clothing. Would they fit Yo-SD or other 25cm dolls? Barbie clothes are too adult for my FDoll, and they're hard to find in this area to boot.
I just found out LeeAnn clothes fit Leeke dolls - I know they are close to AI petite as well. Not sure about Blythe, somebody did say a while back that Lati Yellow and Blythe can share shirts, skirts perhaps too, but certainly not pants or hats!! So hard for me to find SHOES for my kids!! Mary-Lee
YES! I have tons of the LeeAnn clothes and they fit my Leeke girls, my Lati Greens, My Petite Ais, my Luts cuties and my Dollzone tinies. Also, lots of the Boneka outfits for the Boneka dolls (24 cm size) fit them as well. http://albums.photo.epson.com/j/AlbumIndex?u=4146437&a=32364031&f=
I found a strawberry shortcake doll in a thrift store today for 45 cents, her outfit fits Tatum (Fdoll Kemi) almost perfect! Does anyone know if blythe shirts fit Fantasy Doll tinies (A tad bit smaller than Bambricrony)
Not had luck with sugarmag blythe clothes on Kemi, except a knit tee. Her big butt wont fit in blythe or barbie pants.
I went ahead and bought 7 Blythe shirts, and all but 1 fit fine. A couple are a bit difficult to get hands through, and one is a bit to short but those aren't big deals. The one that doesn't fit is a long sleeve shirt made out of a material that doesn't stretch at all, so it doesn't even come close to fitting over her hands.
My cat girl from fantasy doll can wear the azone 1/6 stuff (l'm seeing what can fit thought). I bought her a cat top and it fits (25cm). Now l wonder if the jeans will fit her.
Well, my Sleeping Elf BonBon definately steals from Barbie, Bracken can steal from Gary (of the Dawn family of dolls) but why? Spampy and Marsh make much nicer outfits :P... and I hear Moona can take from Dawn, but mine hasn't gotten here yet, so I haven't tried.... and lets see, Felixdoll Brownies can take from the Kelly size dolls of the Barbie clan... and Only Hearts Club dolls too I got tons of clothes for Bratz for my Elfdoll new tiny Ryung, and Bratz kidz for my Elfdoll Tiny Adel. Also, I've bought Riley doll clothes for my Elfdoll new tiny doona, Ryung as well, a bit big, but since they were pajamas, it didn't matter, looked good I think that's about it for me
Bratz dolls ...I have found now have thier uses too the larger Bratz fit PpoPpo and the new larger Moona you have to watch the hands though and the tiny Bratz fit Elf Dolls Pippa and Dawn clothes fit Moona and Elf ...but are a little large on Elf
My Isabella fits barbie dresses, and some vintage barbie jumpers and pants. Of course, she cannot wear normal modern-day Barbie pants, as her rump is a bit too big XD. But she looks great in her vintage Barbie outfit, that I've got her on now. You gotta watch out though, Barbie's chests tend to be a lot bigger than BJD's are, so some alteration or just accepting the pooch will be required for most outfits. However, double-face tape is always nice, so long as it's a good brand and doesn't leave residue. That and snaps!
In case someone is using this info, just wanted to clarify Bratz Kidz fits Elfdoll tinies (0ld size, not Doona) There is a 'Lil Bratz, and those are SUPER tiny and don't fit. Also, others have said that Bratz Babiez or some such works as well?? It's so confusing because there are so many types of Bratz dolls!
I just bought a Toni Dress for my Lati Green, fits a little tight on the waist, but over all a perfect fit! (the slip is low to show that there is one.)
Bobobie Nissa can wear strawberry shortcake (tiny) shirts and socks and CPK lil sprouts clothes with a little mod to the pants!
Riley kish sized clothes will fit a bjd 17-20cm, theres tonnes to choose from on ebay at great prices!
I know that a LOT of Tommy and Kelly/Chelsea (Barbie line) clothes fit Pukipukis, Felixdoll Brownies, and others.
