@CathyM Yay for new clothes! Your girl looks super cute also, I second @Adele's question about the dress *forever on the quest to find stuff that fits these girls*
@Adele @Chibi_Rat I purchased it from Moritime on Etsy. I love her work so much. I messaged her before I ordered it that it was for a DSD, so she adjusted the SD10 version for me.
@rakelnaomi, a very belated yes, my DearSDs can stand in those boots. In the photo I linked, my girl is standing without a stand or support. I wouldn't walk away from her like that, but she can stand on her own long enough for a photo! Some of the recent IG posts from Volks show the Show boys wearing similar boots, too. For people looking for clothes, the seller kokum has been posting some very cute DearSD kimono lately on Y!J. They are a nice fit, not too skinny like some kimono labeled DSD/MSD! My girl could even kinda kneel in hers: (photo link if the photo is not loading) I am working on sewing a slightly reduced-size version of this free pattern from Peta Peta for DearSD size. That said, the original SD-sized version fits DearSD pretty well! I will post photos of both at some point in the future
Ooh that is such a cute dress! Please do share pics when you're done! (And thank you so much for sharing the link to the pattern! Maybe one day I'll get back into the sewing room, and this will be right up there on the to-do list)
@snowgray, thank you, that’s great to know! I got the Dollmore Mary Janes and while they do fit, they’re quite a hassle to get on and won’t allow for socks. I think I might just get my girl some boots instead
@snowgray thank you so much for the heads up about the DSD kimonos! they are gorgeous, affordable and most importantly actually fit! also, to all those looking for shoes that fit DSD, LeekeWorld's LS-058_G (for SD/SD13 girls) fit quite well, they leave room for pretty thick socks and the ankle strap keeps them on securely even with the slight gap at the toes. Unfortunately, only brown and white and currently in stock here's a picture of Mafuyu wearing the white ones and also, I have a question about heads I just got a DearSD SwD Megu head from a friend and the inside of her head is oddly different in that the magnet on the headcap is in the front and the hook in the back of the head which is the reverse of that of my DearSD Megu and other dolls is this normal?
@Chibi_Rat, that's normal. I always assumed it was so that you don't accidentally swap their headcaps!
@snowgray thank you so much for clearing that up! such a random change, but I guess they have their reasons for it
Hi kind of a doll noob here lol. For the 4 sisters dearSD girls, they are the same head sculpt just different outfits and face makeup right?
@dollxheart, yes. Kira, Nana, Megu, and Sara are all the same headmold in SD and DearSD size. Una is the same headmold in white resin. SwD (Sweet Dream) Megu/Nana is the same headmold with slightly closed eyes. SwD Kira is the same headmold with slightly closed eyes and a little smile. Her sculpted lips are different, not just the faceup. ETA: because I saw that you have an SDM Kira, DearSDs of the four sisters use the SD/60cm sized heads, so a DearSD would be a similar height to your SDM, but with a chubby body and enormous noggin The SDM “Four Sisters” have the same naming patterns, but so far only Kira and Una, plus their SwD versions, have been released so far. If I recall correctly!
Thanks for this helpful reply! I'm now interested in these DearSD dolls because obviously their faces are gorgeous, but I love their size! Having the sdm kira helped with determining if I would like the size or not. The faceups for these dolls made them look bit different from each other, I couldn't exactly tell if they were all the same headmold. Thanks for clearing that up
I really shouldn't be stuck working at home/in quasi-quarantine... Well he's been living in the closet with the towels for a week and hasn't killed me yet so maybe he's just too short to get out?
So I only purchased my first doll recently but I'm crazy and bought myself a Dear SD girl soon after and I love her! She's bald right now because I found it hard to put her wig on, plus messed up her curls I'll have to restyle it, but ahhhhhh i cant believe i have her. She came in her original box and clothes. I just couldn't pass her up!
All hilarity aside, my girl finally has her head! At least until it gets sent off for a new faceup (this one has a lot of yellowing unfortunately). DearSD Cyndi anyone?
@eleniel DearSD Cyndy is super adorable! your boy is great too @dollxheart Congratulations on your super cute new girl! Work has been killing me but I did manage to take some pictures of the DSDs together last month Mafuyu likes having a friend her own size
I'm thinking of putting some different hands on my DearSD, to give her a slightly older look. Has anyone done this? Would Volks SD hands work, or are the measurements just too different? What about hands from other companies? If anyone has pictures or ideas about size/resin matches it would be greatly appreciated
