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.

    1. Oh wow @snowgray, I was wondering if Dearsd existed in tan littérale a minute ago, what a gorgeous answer! That girl is perfection!

      He is here!!! @Chibi_Rat he is a Dwc 04 head! I have never seen the pairing with this body yet so I thought some of you would get a kick out of it! The proportions work really well I think. To be honest the dear sd body is what brought me back into the hobby (oups) height of a msd with the chub of a sd? I was immediately in :D

    4. Thanks. No plans right now she may stay as Anna for now. My best dollie friend has Elsa and moved far away. She calls me her sister so I thought it would be fun and they can be long distance pen pals!

    5. @lorka and @Chibi_Rat, I agree! I hope Volks puts out more tan DearSD. It's been a long time since Vanessa came out! 2017 in the U.S. and... 2018? in Tokyo? Time for a new gal! ;)

      Also, @lorka, thanks for sharing your DWC04 head on the DSD body! You're right, I haven't seen that combo yet. His white and gray outfit is so cozy.

      My precious baby Penny went to see the plum blossoms recently.

    6. Such a pretty girl. Is this Elsa or Anna?
       
    7. I seem to be caught in the image-fail trap -- was trying to add a picture of my DSD Vanessa, Tibbie, in her new spring dress by Lovesprung, but all I could get was a red X. ::sigh:: Maybe following this link will get you to my Flickr:

    8. @Cynthia in FlintHills : I see her! Lovely dress for her, and compliments her tan skin. <3 I love her name too! That bob cut is so charming on her. I have been trying to find the right wig for my Vanessa too.

      I am itching for another DSD lottery... why must Volks keep these little darling's releases so few and far between. T~T

    9. What a cutie!!!!! Also, here is a tutorial on cross posting from Flickr. I’m assuming it still works, but please let me know if it doesn’t! Maybe your photo was above 2mb?

    10. I just got my Elsa and Anna and I'm hoping someone can help me with Outfits for them?

      I read Disney Animator clothes work - did someone try those?

      Volks labels both SD and MSD outfits also for DSD if I filter for them - will those really properly fit? I guess the proportions are different?

      Any other outfits that might work?

    11. she’s so pretty!

      Hikari-chanXx congrats on your girls. I’m waiting on Anna (still paying for her.) I have not tried the animator clothes on them as most of mine came to me nude as they were rescued from thrift stores. But I’ve heard the same thing. I can say maybe Etsy? I know there are a few sewist who sew for them. I’ve seen a few patterns etc.
       
    12. Hi Hikari-chan!

      If Volks mentions the dress fits DSD and SDM, most of the time the dress would be a little larger on the SDM, and you don’t have to worry about fit on the DSD.

      I don’t exactly like how SD clothing look on DSD because the proportions are off to me. The sleeves would be too large and waistline too low unless it is a babydoll dress for the SD.

      I also make clothing that is interchangeable on both DSD and SDM. Just more loops for the hook to attach to, to adjust the fit.

      Here is a look at both a DearSD (left) and SDM (right) wearing dresses of the same fit but differing lengths. SDMs get an extra loop for a tighter fit around the waist:

      I placed a Petit Soiree Madeleine head on this DearSD body.

    13. This is a disney animator dress and i have some more dolls and outfits. Anyone in particular you are interested in? This one fits quite well but some will definitely be to short.

    14. Thank you, this picture helps a lot! So MSD should look pretty cute (I'm looking at a few labeled msd and DSD), I think I might get some in my next order

      Thank you, this is so helpful! I'll refrain from the Animator dresses then as they look a bit small actually - this one was one I was especially interested in
       
    15. @allanieew, your girl is a cutie! Thanks for sharing the official Disney dress on a DearSD! For the photo, if you’re on a mobile device, you have to “Request Desktop Website” as your step zero. I added it to the tutorial! :sweat
       
    16. Fixed my photo, thank you for the update on the tutorial, i guess i was just lazy (all i had to do was turn my tablet a quarter turn and then it gives me the desktop version)

    17. Oh, forgot to mention this (or did I?), but ILY Disney clothes (the 18") won't fit DSD without some serious tailoring. They're simply too big!
       
    18. Oh, I'll bet the size of the image was the problem, thank you! I've never had any trouble posting images from Flickr before -- I couldn't figure out what might be making the difference this time.

    19. My lovely Aya girl on DearSD body. This is an SD outfit set, but I put a big safety pin through the back like a heathen...
