What Brand of dolls do Simplicity 18" patterns fit?

I really like the Simplicity doll pattern for the Doctor Who styles, but I don't care for American Girl. Does anyone know if the Simplicity 18" doll patterns will fit either the Disney Princess and me dolls or those pretty Carpatina dolls? I tried searching online but I couldn't find much.

Thanks!

Carpatina yes, Disney Princess no.

I've never seen the Carpatina dolls before - other than a couple of the guy sculpts I think they are gorgeous dolls. My daughter has been looking into AG size dolls for a fidget/comfort prop (she wants a doll whose hair she can brush) and she really likes their more realistic look. Does anyone have experience with these dolls?

I randomly found them online and thought they were really pretty. I'd like to buy one but I have to sell one of my other dolls first because they're on the pricey side. They have beautiful clothes and patterns, too.

I like the guy dolls from Carpatina too but don't care much for the look of the girls.

If you want an inexpensive 18", Kirahfaye, I really love my Walmart knockoff doll. She's the size of the AG's but a 1/4 of the price and the one I have has the most beautiful hair! It brushes/braids/fixes up nicely and is a good quality. I know they have changed the line a bit, but hopefully they are the same quality. See if they will let you open a box to touch the hair. The clothing line is crap but the clothes from the Target brand are great quality and cheaper than AG's too.
