Choosing Clothes
When selecting clothes for your love doll, there are a few key points to keep in mind. This is especially important for beginners, as some common mistakes can affect both the doll’s appearance and the durability of the clothes.
Price vs. Quality:
The most important thing is to avoid choosing clothes that are too cheap. Clothing sold through low-priced online stores or street vendors often lacks proper dye-setting techniques. This means that even after a few washes, the clothes may fade or leave stains. Cheap clothes are usually of poor quality, prone to fraying, fading, or tearing easily. These issues are particularly noticeable when it comes to doll clothing, so make sure to keep this in mind when purchasing such items.
Color Selection:
When it comes to color choices, it’s best to avoid overly bright and saturated colors, such as pure yellow, green, red, blue, purple, or black. These colors are more likely to fade or cause color transfer. Lighter, mixed, or less vibrant shades are generally a safer option. Common colors that work well for dolls include gray, white, light green, light purple, teal, beige, and various shades of pink. These colors not only reduce the risk of fading, but also allow the doll to show different personalities and styles.
Fabric Selection:
When choosing fabric, it’s recommended to avoid materials that lack elasticity, such as denim, European-style shirts, tight suits, or wedding dresses. While these fabrics may sometimes look stylish, they are not ideal for making well-fitting clothing.
To maintain both comfort and durability, it’s better to choose fabrics that are stretchy and breathable. For example, Lycra fabric is a great choice—it has excellent stretch, comfort, and the dye-setting process is usually more stable, which reduces the risk of color transfer. Some Lycra fabrics even offer a two-tone effect, where the outside is black and the inside is white, for example.
Velvet-type fabrics are also a good option, especially for festive or unique clothing. The fine fibers on the velvet surface significantly reduce the risk of color transfer compared to other fabrics.
How to Choose the Right Size
Choosing the right size is a crucial step. Many beginners tend to overlook the differences between a doll and a real woman, particularly in terms of shoulder width. Most dolls, especially those around 155 cm in height, tend to have slightly smaller shoulder widths compared to real women.
For example, a real woman who is 155 cm tall typically has a shoulder width of about 34-36 cm, but the corresponding doll’s shoulder width is usually around 30-32 cm. Therefore, when selecting clothes, the most important thing is to choose based on the doll’s shoulder width. If the doll’s shoulder width is 30 cm, then choose clothing with a shoulder width slightly larger or smaller than 30 cm.
Understanding the relationship between size and proportions can greatly increase your chances of selecting the right clothes. Many online shopping platforms now provide shoulder width information for clothing, making it easier for beginners to reference when making a purchase.
Choosing Shoes
For beginners, selecting shoes for your doll can seem like a tricky task, especially when determining the correct shoe size. Some people even consider taking their doll to a shoe store to try on shoes, but the process isn’t that complicated—it just requires a few simple tricks.
How to Determine the Shoe Size
The easiest way to determine your doll’s shoe size is by using an A4 sheet of paper. Place the doll’s foot on the paper and carefully trace the outline of the foot, ensuring all edges are marked. Then fold the paper and keep it in your bag. When you go to a shoe store, simply take out the paper and compare it with the soles of the shoes to find a match.
This method is very simple and effective, ensuring you can select the right shoes based on the doll’s foot shape without too much trial and error.
Things to Keep in Mind When Putting Shoes on
While the importance of shoe size is obvious, the details of putting shoes on are also crucial, especially for dolls without advanced support stands. Be especially careful when positioning the doll to stand.
Wearing High Heels
We do not recommend letting the doll stand in high heels without a proper support stand!
Even with a reinforced foot base, wearing high heels still carries risks. High heels have a steep sole angle, and when the doll wears them, the weight is concentrated on the front of the foot. This can not only wear down the foot’s paint but also cause the foot to deform, or in extreme cases, even risk the bones in the foot protruding.
A Small Tip for Wearing Shoes
Regardless of the shoe style, it’s a good idea to have your doll wear a pair of socks. For those who want to wear high heels, you might consider using skin-colored boat socks. These not only protect the foot but also reduce wear and tear, all while not affecting the overall appearance of the doll.
