1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

Feeling bad covering up a gorgeous body?

Feb 1, 2016

    1. My dolls wear clothes. The only one half naked because of a beautiful body is my Souldoll Souloid Ier. She has a "shirt" made of two ribbons to cover her breasts but her lower half is just the black robot/android body with no covering.
       
    2. This is why I wouldn't care much for the body blushing. Doll bodies are absolutely beautiful, body blushing is the way to make them look like they're ready and complete, but I do think I prefer dressing up my dolls more often than having them naked or even close to half-naked.
       
    3. I know the feels quite well. My Abadon has a Soom Idealian body. Very muscular, very well built and at 70 cm he is a very handsome, strong, large doll.I found a pair of bjd Calvin Klein boxer briefs for him on E-bay that I love to photograph him in.
       
    4. I totally agree some sculpts are just designed to be shown without clothing for example dolls made by BJ Tales

    5. I struggle with that too! My girls have such beautifully sculpted bodies, I wish I could leave them naked or at least in underwear often. Unfortunately I think my family would start questioning my hobby if I did that and I really like how it is now with them not minding it, haha. I always pause to admire them while switching their clothes, though. Maybe I can get them bikinis, that seems more socially acceptable despite covering as much as underwear does, hmm...
       
    6. Don't have any dolls yet, but my Mei - first on the list - will most likely be barely clothed. More out of being a faerie, so who cares about clothing attitude than the doll itself. But I ever get a RS Mi, yeah... Idk, I might struggle with clothing it.
       
    7. I feel that way about Pete... but he also has the nicest clothes. Can't win with that boy. Still, I did take a whole bunch of pictures of his body when I blushed him, and a few of him scantily clad/looking like he was in the process of dressing/undressing.

      With Vince, it's pretty easy to show off my favorite details without having him indecently exposed... I like his little feet a lot, so I just leave him barefoot unless he's going out/needs to stand up. And with Billy, I did a photoshoot where he just had a little modesty underwear thing and then his magnet-on wings, for a sort of Cupid thing, and I appreciate the work that went into sculpting his whole little body, but I don't feel like I'm missing anything when he's all covered up, either.
       
    8. Some of my dolls do have gorgeous bodies, especially the Senior Delf bodies and my Jie Doll. But I love doll clothing so much that nobody gets to sit around naked. My favorite parts of the bodies are usually the chest and collarbones, so I just go with low cut shirts so I can show that off and give them nice clothes.
       
    9. Oh yes when I get a new doll I like to marvel over how lovely the body is, admire all the details and appreciate the work that went into the doll. Then I cover it up with clothes and then forget about it. And on the rare occasion I change the outfit it's like I get to rediscover the beauty all over again. I'm not really into having a bunch of naked dolls laying around so I miss out on all details.

      Upside to this is I can have a not-so-pretty body with a pretty head, since they're already dressed anyway, and that can save money.
       
    10. Absolutely! My first doll turned out to be a Lolita, so I rarely get to see her gorgeous form. Hopefully my next ladies will not be so modest. ;)
