clothing for 21-23 obitsu dolls

[Hiro_heart]

I have an obitsu doll in the 21-23 range (I'm out of town so can't grab her to measure specifically) and have no idea what size clothing would fit her since she's smaller and slimmer than most 1/6 dolls it seems whenever I try to find size comparisons with other dolls. What other dolls are in this size range that I can lookup clothing for that would also fit her do you think?

the new body types, or the originals?

the current 21/23/24/26 share a far more shapely and overall-realistically-proportioned figure
than the rather decidedly slim and stylized previous 21/23/27 series,
as well as that of the uncertain-half-step towards the modern standards that the original late-2000's 24 represented.

the new OBITSU standard makes for a tremendous difference. an example;

CURRENT 26cm.



ORIGINAL 23cm.



ORIGINAL 24cm. vs. CURRENT 24cm.




ORIGINAL OBITSU BODY SERIES (with current 24 included for contrast)

I used patterns for the Licca doll for my 21-23cm. I have original ones.

I'm pretty sure my Sheen is a 21cm, and old Bratz clothes fit her pretty well, if that helps.

Wow I forgot about this post, heh. I have the original body depicted in the second picture

I searched back through my emails and found my original order confirmation. Sheen is a 23cm in the old style. Bratz clothes for her relatively well (with a few exceptions) but it's a tight fit. Patterns for Bratz, while rare, should be relatively easy to add half a centimeter to for a less snug fit. If you need ahoe options, I've found that most of the tall and curvy Barbie shoes for pretty well (they have slightly bigger feet than a standard Barbie). Just be careful, because sometimes the show comes off and the door goes with it. You just need to grab the peg and pull it back out, though.

For patterns hunt around on line for My Favorite Doll for Licca and old issues of Dolly Dolly, Dolly Bird, and Doll Coordinate Recipe.

Even an image search for Blythe doll patterns gets results. Most factory ones use a body that's a similar size.
