Ha! I definitely didn’t have much wiggle room. I had her with me when I bought it, but just held it up to her. I got lucky it fit at all! Her bust is technically a little too low for it (since Barbies are sculpted as if they have bras on, while the Fairies are definitely bra-less) so at some point I’ll need to adjust the hook and eye to hit right between her breasts. It gaps a little from the other side. But it’s quite close. These dolls are really flexible and solidly engineered so dressing her after I got the hands off was actually really fast.
So... for those with a Glendalough Fairy, what are your experiences for clothing? Like what does and doesn't tend to fit, fit for shoes, etc? I saw some mentions of stretchy (?) barbie clothing might fit, and it does seem like some of the measurements are similar to Littlefee, small bust unoa, & Minifee so I imagine there might be some wiggle room there, depending on the cut of the clothing...? I also noticed her feed are .5 cm shorter than minifee moe so I wonder how well shoes made for moe would fit? Sadly it doesn't seem like many people have these dolls, which is a shame. They're so pretty!
I've finally made her a wig and I'm delighted to be able to post photos of my Saoirse from the last preorder. P1100923 by Tide N Thyme, on Flickr I wasn't sure abour the colour (and she may yet end up a redhead) but this was the darkest brown fible in my stash so I went ahead and the colour has grown on me. I also can't share photos of her with Siobhan yet because I decided Saoirse looked best in smaller eyes and now I have a matching set (different colour, same size) on order for Siobhan. I'll come back to post once they arrive.
I found someone who was selling a magic mirror fairy on Facebook and she said hers was wearing curvy Barbie clothes but I still haven’t found shoes.
I’ve since got a Sinead (nanyalin’s photo model, actually!) and while this might not be the most helpful now, littlefee boots kind of fit, albeit a little oversized. Maybe I can take a photo of her later but I also managed to her mine to wear a 1/6 action figure pirate shirt, although finding some shorts or pants for her has been another matter slowly trying to get her hobbit outfit assembled, ahaha.
