BARBIE DOLL SHORT DRESS - One Size Fits ALL comparison

COMPARISON of the halter One-Size-Fits-All Classic Short Barbie dress. 

I get asked a lot whether this dress will fit their Curvy, or their Silkstone Barbie. This dress has an expandable waistline, and will fit the full sized Barbie, down to the slim and petite. Depending on your taste for fit, these photos will help you to decide if this dress is perfect for your special doll. 

A picture is worth a thousand words!

CLASSIC SHORT DRESS CHART FOR TONNER FASHON DOLLS - One Size Fits all Design for Tonner and Friends

I've been sewing a lot of the One-Size-Fits-All halter style dress for Tonner, because this fashion is so versatile! It truly takes the guess work out of whether this outfit will fit OTHER similar sized fashion dolls. But to give a better idea HOW WELL this dress fits, I wanted to showcase several of my models wearing the SAME DRESS!

I've blogged earlier on doll sizes in case you need measurements...

  

Here are the ladies wearing/sharing the same dress! 

Tonner Evangeline Ghastly 

Tonner Tyler Wentworth 

Tonner Cami doll 

Tonner Ellowyne Wilde

Tonner City Girls

Vintage Lisa Littlechap 

Vintage Judy Littlechap

Tonner Kitty Collier

Ashton Drake Gene doll 

Some dolls are taller, or thinner. Some have fuller breasts, or smaller hips. Either way, this dress fits higher or lower, fuller or leaner - due to the expandable elastic waistline, and adjustable velcro closure -  and each gal is rocking it! I really love how Tonner can share this dress with friends! 

As I sew for this design, I try to maintain a 5 1/2" inch length from elastic waist to hem. The halter straps are each approximately 4" in length. 

These designs and more are currently available on ETSY and EBAY

One of the top questions I get asked the most is, "Will this outfit fit my doll?" To better answer that question, I've created a pictorial graph showing some of the Tonner Fashion doll models that I use the most for my designs. 

The Tonner dolls are lined up at the heel. Each square is an inch in diameter, so counting upwards or sideways is an estimate on the height and width of each doll.
