I'd like to compile a list of clothing that can fit Lati yellow. They are 16cm tall dolls, but their heads are so large compared with their bodies that it's difficult to make out what other doll clothes could fit them. Has anyone tried Blythe clothes on them? How about other clothes that fit? It would be great to have all this in one thread.
Some short sleeve blythe t-shirts fit, and some sleevless tops fit like knee legnth dresses. Blythe pants would be too long, but some of the shorts fit okay. I have tons of blythe clothing so if your there's anything else you want to know, just lemme know . The remco heidi shirts fit, but I'm not sure about the pants...
My LaTi Yellow can wear clothes that fit Helen Kish's Ellery, and shoes that fit Kish's Riley. There are not a lot of Ellery-sized clothes available from stores. This fall another small Kish doll the same size as Ellery will arrive. (Her name is Jessamyn.) Maybe having two dolls this size will cause more clothing to be designed and made available. There are lots of Ellery sized clothes on eBay, but sometimes I think they are too infant-like for my LaTi Yellow. It's hard to find just the right size and look. I think I need to remember how to sew ... ... right after I clean up the mess that surrounds my sewing machine and everywhere else!!! Sabrina
I discovered a great source for clothing patterns that are made for Helen Kish's Ellery doll, and therefore should fit Lati Yellows nicely, either with no adjustments, or with very minor adjustments: http://stores.ebay.com/D-Zinerclothes4dolly_Ellery-Kish-5-1-2_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZ1QQfsubZ11QQftidZ2QQtZkm OR you can try this address for the home page: http://stores.ebay.com/D-Zinerclothes4dolly (look under "patterns for Ellery Kish"). This will be a wonderful source of patterns for people who can sew. The site has Ellery-sized patterns for both boy's and girl's clothes. This same seller ("Eli") also sells Bitty Bethany-sized patterns, which fit Latidoll Green or Petite Ai. I've bought patterns from this seller before, and the patterns are pretty nice. When you say that they "can" wear clothes for Ellery, does this mean it is a perfect fit, or does it mean that the fit is not perfect? For example, are the clothes too large in some areas, too long, etc? Thanks for your response.
i am finding that he lati yellow miel fits in a number of stacie (of the barbie family) outfits and knockoffs...not the shoes, but there are many ebay sellers who sell 24/25 shoes in a variety of styles and colors...i'm waiting on coco, so my two girls will half to fight over clothes...looks like i'll be sewing a lot more myself!
Hi, SnowSong, I have been very happy with the fit of the Ellery clothing on my LaTi Yellow, but I have tried only dresses, no pants. Bonnets are much too small, though. Sabrina
I just got my Lati Yellow, and made two dresses for her using patterns for the Ellery Kish doll. They fit perfectly with no adjustments! EDIT: I later bought a dress made for Ellery off of eBay, and it fit perfectly (except for the hat, of course). It's like Ellery clothes were made specifically for Lati Yellow ... It's great! Shoes for Lati Yellow Riley-sized shoes fit Lati Yellow. These are shoes for the 7-inch Riley doll by Helen Kish. Riley shoes come in 2 sizes. Size 28 if the shoes are worn with socks, or size 25 if they are worn without socks. This is how it is with Lati Yellow, also. Size 28 fits Lati Yellow only if they are worn with socks, otherwise size 28 would be too big and fall off their feet. Size 25 fits them perfectly if they aren't wearing socks. I'm finding that I like the size 25 shoes on them better than the 28's. I have lots of Riley shoes, so I've been able to try these sizes on my Lati Yellow to check the fit of each size.
I have many Lati Yellow items on my web page. Go take a peek. I will be updating the outfits (adding Easter items) later in the week. Mary-Lee www.magmini.com
thanks for all the info! i've seen photos of lati yellows wearing kelly (barbie's relative) clothes, for what i can gather it is a bit thight but it looks ok.
Gosh, Yellow Lati could never fit into Kelly's clothes. I have written 7 books on Kelly clothes, she is about 2" shorter and much tinier than my Lina. I will try to take a photo of them together this week. Just finished making 20 t-shirts for Kelly, the pattern I have for Lina (yellow lati) is almost 2x bigger. I think some of the Kelly Klone dolls MAY fit Yellow lati though, they are larger, and sometimes they are beside the Mattel Kelly dolls. Lati whites are the same size as yellow latis though, about 10 cm or 4" tall. So many dolls, so little time. Hugs Mary-Lee :-)
The new "Amazon" Kelly's clothing will fit Lati Yellow. You can only buy the clothed dolls, there are no clothing packs yet, but she's a new 5-6 inch size that was released last year by Mattel. I usually find them at Target or Walmart. Walmart also has a line of little Brass Key porcelain dolls in heart-shaped clear plastic boxes (I'm not home or I'd give you the name of the line), and their clothing will fit Yellow. There are about seven different styles, and they're less than $10.
Yes, I have tried my amazon 6" Kelly clothes on my Lati yellow, and they do fit, although they have different shaped bodies so not everything will fit great - but so far so good. Lati white, mine is on order, but I won't have it for a few weeks - and I can tell you for sure then. I had forgotten there were 2 sized Kelly dolls. Funny, I have pattern books for both, I should have remembered about the big one. Some days . . . Mary-Lee
i commented that because i saw this photo: http://www.flickr.com/photos/addictedtoplastic/386313744/in/set-72157594469223556/ that's a lati yellow and she said it's a "kelly outfit". is there another "kelly" doll then?
i found this other photo: http://www.flickr.com/photos/addictedtoplastic/399663766/in/set-72157594469223556/ i dont know there were different sizes of kelly dolls, apparently these clothes are from the 6'' doll.
Yes, there is now a 6" sized Kelly doll and her clothes do fit Lati yellow. The original, smaller kelly doll clothes do not fit.
I have the larger 6" kelly - I think 6 of her (all that were made) I had just forgotten about her. Yes, I will have to raid her waredrobe for my Lina (lati yellow). Thanks for reminding me. I do have many things for both dolls on my web page. Guess I have too many dolls!!! Can't keep track of what fits who!! Hugs Mary-Lee
No, I'm guessing they're Blythe tennis shoes. The Kelly ones are too small, I'm hoping they'll fit my Bobobie. I think that's the set with the little red wagon in it. It has a skipper-sized doll in it as well.
I have some tennis shoes for Riley, I wonder if they would fit Lati Yellow? Have to try them. So many dolls, so little time. Hugs Mary-Lee
The Riley shoes fit though not with socks. I want to try Tulah shoes but I haven't had a chance to get a pair.
The 6" Kelly's feet are too large for Lati Yellow. I will try to measure them today - last day of our Easter Holiday - back to work tomorrow. Hugs Mary-Lee
aww mary lee your lati is so adorable!! And her little chococat outfit is awesome, I especially love the hat!!
Ebay - search "micro shoe" in the Blythe Catagory. A general search of "Blythe" will you the catagory.
I love your Chococat outfit! It's adorable! Thanks Rosa for the info on the Micro search. Will go there and check it out. By Bratz, do you mean the regular Bratz dolls?
Just bought 4 pair of sneakers! Thanks for the ebay info. I've seen them on Releaserain's site but would never have thought they'd fit one of my tinies! Now when my Yellow arrives, she'll have blue, pink, yellow and orange sneakers!
Thanks Linda. Good to see you here too. Who is your avatar? She is darling. An Elf doll. Hugs Mary-Lee
My mom's started making clothes for Lati Yellow. One of her sets is up on eBay - right here. Take a look... it comes with a dress, headband, tights, socks, t-shirt and super-cute overalls. Just in time for summer!
Regarding shoes, these will fit: http://www.monique.com/ shoes Monique size 24-25 (no socks) 28 with socks
A Lati yellow is the next on my list after seeing spampy's little Maya! I know spampy sells really nice stuff as I have a lot of outfits she's made for my Pocket Fairy. I hope she doesn't mind me linking this picture. Hahahahaha! How cute is that! She has a link in the Marketplace under spampy and she's very nice to do business with.
They are darling outfits! I've marked them to keep an eye on. My Yellow Lami shipped today! Yeah!!! She's going to need a few outfits when she gets here.
Isn't she the cutest! I just realized I should make sure spampy knows I put that picture up. Its a new release! You got Lami, eh! I'm trying really hard to decide who to get. In all the pictures on their website I keep leaning towards Lea, but I'm worried she might look too sad. I love Lami's little face almost as much. And spampy's is Miel and I absolutely love her too! Arrrggghhhh! What to do! Make sure you spam us with pics when yours gets here.
Hey Susan, Thanks for the kind words. I am having a ball with my Miel. I just finished a set for ebay and put it up. I don't know if I'm allowed to show you all, so if not, please yell at me. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290105648923
Oh crap! I'm totally done for! Between your Mom's stuff, spampy's and Mary-Lee's, I'm getting a Lati Yellow! Mary-Lee's:
http://www.magmini.com/yellow.htm I have many items on my Lati Yellow page for sale. From jeans to hoodies (my first love is knitting) and Tea Sets - sequined and beaded dress with hat and matchin socks. Cute little things, I will post a few photos. Hugs Mary-Lee
My Lati Yellow is a special edition Lina which was offered in December 06. She didn't arrive until February 07 - she took a long time to arrive. Here is Lina and Pury when they arrived:
Lucy is also a Miel (white skin, premium make-up). Miel is the sweetest Lati around! But I'm a bit biased.
... new "country charm" set up on ebay. i really should just make some sort of formal place to put information like this. hope it's okay here at least one more time.... more cuteness this way.
My Yellow Lami arrived yesterday and she's adorable! You just have to love those little faces! I put some photos up of her in Picturetrail. http://www.picturetrail.com/gallery/view?p=999&gid=16128541&uid=534755 I have a few outfits for her, but I can tell she's going to need lots more.
that's our plan! all the lati yellow owners are trying to convert the world to the cute side with all the pictures/clothes/etc. mwa ha ha.
Thanks Mary-Lee. I just measured her head at 6". Sounds big to me. Has anyone bought wigs for their Yellow? What size did you get?
Crap! I think I've decided on Meil but LilBitGal's Lami - . Of course, I'd really like to kidnap one of Mary-Lee's sweeties, but they are both LE, aren't they? Pury is pure love! So nice to see so many cute outfits! I find it so hard to bond with a doll when I can't find clothes for her. I think that's why my Roxy - Yam never leaves her box. Also, did I see something about Lati stopping production or something? Did I miss the deadline?
