@wherethelilacsbloom haha, we could start a school of Baby Delf jellyfish! The owner of NIGO has been wonderful throughout the ordering process (I ordered through Etsy). Once I get the outfit, expect more spammage of little Marin!
Kimchi, she's so cute! Seeing hybrid Baby Delfs is such a treat. And what a great source for clothes...their outfits for this size are absolutely stunning! I had to run right over to Etsy and add them to my favorites.
Thanks, @PoeticSoul and @Lady Macaron ! I absolutely love the Baby Delf body (even if working with the ball joints is a bit fiddly) and the size is so wonderful. Haha, I even had a passing thought once to swap all my SD girls to Baby Delfs.
(pictures updated) My Uriel came yesterday, so I did a size comparison with my other weird sized dolls. Left to right: Narsha, Classic Ai, Rosenlied, Baby Delf Uriel and Chicobricks Darjeeling body with a Chicobonita head. Narsha is french resin, rest are normal skin. Baby delf is a bit chunkier than Rosenlied - some of the clothes we have are a little too small. His head is also huge compared to the Classic Ais. Gabriel fits a size 8 wig, my classic Sariel fits 8-9, and Uriel fits 9-10.
What a great comparison image! Thank you for this I was going to get some rosenlied clothes for my girl, but I might just stick to Luts/Volks/MSD sizes. It surprises me a bit that the Rosenlied Holiday Child is so thin. My Anabelle has a NARSHA outfit on right now, and it fully snaps. And Narsha is supposed to be pretty small. The dress is here: Dollmore.net :: Everything for Doll & more Of course, she doesn't fit the bonnet. :P
I think it just depends on the style of the outfit. I have two sleeveless outfits from Rosenlied (1, 2) that fit ok, only the second snap down is tight. The little undershirt on the second link is too tight in the sleeves though. I don't know where the coat is but I would guess it would fit without a shirt underneath. I also tried on the 2013 Christmas outfit, but the ribbons around the wrist made it too small to get Uriel's hands through.
Great comparison - and really useful. Thanks! I am envious that you have a Classic Ai, and I've never seen a Darjeeling body before. Teddy
For anyone who's interested, I did a size chart comparison between Dollzone's 1/4BB dolls, Baby Delf, and Dear SD. DZ only has two outfits for their BB dolls right now, but they may make more in the future and could be another alternative when looking for clothes. DZ 1/4BB | Baby Delf | Dear SD Height: 42cm | 41cm | 43cm Head size: 22.5cm | 9in | 9in Neck size: 9.3cm | 9cm | n/a Shoulder width: 9.5cm | 10cm | n/a Arm length: 12.5cm | 13cm | 13cm Chest Size: 20cm | 18.5cm | 21cm Waist size: 18cm | 19.5cm | 19.5cm Hip size: 23cm | 21.2cm | 23cm Leg length: 19.5cm | 18cm | 17.5cm Thigh width: 13.7cm | 13cm | n/a Foot length: 5.2cm | 5.7cm | 6cm Foot width: 2.4cm | n/a | 2.5cm Back length: n/a | 8cm | n/a
Marin's new NIGO workshop outfit came in! It arrived in what I assume was a very cute box, but USPS was not kind to it. Still, the outfit was totally fine - the seller very intelligently sealed everything in plastic. For delivery time, it actually took about the same time to ship out as it did for USPS to get the package to me (~2 weeks total)! About the fit: the main dress fits perfectly - perfect overall length and perfect sleeve length. The corset is a little short in length for the chubby BDF chest, but that's only noticeable if you view the dress from the back. The socks are very tight. I'm not super crazy about them either, so I'll be swapping them out for something more interesting. Some other general notes: the "yellow" color is more of an off-white/cream. There are also a few very stubborn wrinkles that I'm unable to iron out of the skirt. Overall opinion: beautiful and unique outfit that is absolutely worth the price! NIGO's owner is amazing as well. Kept me up to date throughout the whole ordering process, which I very rarely experience on Etsy. EDITED TO ADD: I would definitely recommend looking at the sales photos while putting this dress on. Turns out you're supposed to stretch her little bloomers down further on her legs so you can actually see the ruffles at the bottom. Whoops!
Oh that is so darling! I definitely want to order one Do you know if they release their clothes as Limited items? Or is this dress going to be available for some time?
@wherethelilacsbloom I really don't have any idea what their release plans are. I only just discovered this studio a couple weeks ago when they opened their shop on Etsy (prior, I believe they were only selling domestically). The owner is super responsive, so I would encourage you to contact him/her on Etsy or here on DoA (member nigoworkshop) to find out the answer to your question.
@kitten when you tired on the Christmas outfit did you try taking her hands off before trying on the dress and then slide her arms through and the put her hands back on?That's what I did when the hands are too big to go through the sleeves of a dress or top.
@ kitten that's a shame. He sounds like he may need to be restring. I personally don't like my dolls strung that tightly.
I did it! I ordered the Limited Gabriel fullset I am SUPER excited to receive her and have a pair of these adorable little ones
Congratulations! I ordered one on layaway with FF&D, so now there will be at least two of us with limited Azhars to share in this thread. Will yours be keeping her Mid Eastern theme or something else? Mine will be shelling an original genie character I've had forever. I was very excited when Luts released this limited since I was wanting a Baby Delf anyway, and she just happens to be the perfect embodiment of my young genie character.
Mine will be more lolita, like all of my other girls. I asked Luts if they could make her for me without the bindi, and they said yes. Congrats on your order as well! I'm just excited to have more than one in this size. My poor Anabelle doesn't really hang out with my other dolls, due to their proportion differences.
Not only has my Gabriel just shipped out from Luts, but I may have impulse bought a Rose from a secondary seller... Rose is already here and fits in just like I'd hoped with my bigger headed SDs - a Volks SD10 girl and a Luts Junior Delf boy. I have a Senior Delf Juniper (who has quite a tiny head even for a Senior Delf girl) and she and my Feeple60 Rona look a bit weird with the BDF big-headedness, but if you use photography tricks, you could probably get away with showing them together and looking scale-ish. My Junior Delf's head is enormous (Luts puts Rigel on the Super Senior Delf / 70cm body too!) and he and Rose look very cute together as big brother/little sister
