Doll Body Sizes If you are unsure whether my clothing items will fit your dolls, let me show you the differences I have noticed through the past few years.
Barbie™ dolls were introduced at the 1958 Toy Fair and were available on store shelves in 1959. From that time until 1999, her body remained relatively unchanged. This is what I refer to as the Classic Body. As time went on, it was decided that her unrealistic figure should be tamed down a bit, and the Belly Button Body appeared on the store shelves in 2000. This body is also used for the popular My Scene Barbie™ who has a larger head. Both the Classic and Belly Button Body dolls can wear my fashions. Just pull the velcro a little tighter on the Belly Button version, she is a little smaller in the chest. Now there is a New Girl on the block, she is shorter, smaller in the shoulders and hips and some have larger feet. Some of my fashions will fit her, like robes and nighties, but anything that is fitted in the bodice and waist will be too large. These doll bodies are found on the Beach Glam Barbie™, Barbie Mariposa Dolls, and High School Musical Fashion Dolls. Anyone wanting items spacifically for this newer doll should contact me by phone or email to make sure the item can be made to fit this doll. There is also a Silkstone Barbie ™ on the market now. This is a hard vinyl doll with a porcelain feel, and is bought mostly by collectors. She is also smaller than the Classic and Belly Button Body dolls. I hope this information is helpful. If you have any further questions about the doll sizes or about a spacific fashion doll, please don't hesitate to email Jan@JansDollBoutique.com
