To be polite, is there a period of time that should have lapsed before trying on a new persons clothes?
Because it was sunny and approaching 20 out of the shade the girls wanted to try on Leonie's clothes. These are the body shapes and sizes we had to work with.
Maplelea Leonie, BFC ink Maddie (aka Addison), Journey Girls Kelsey, Australian Girl Matilda, and American Girl Truly Me #61 Tauralie
Leonie's torso is closest to Tauralie, whilst her arms and legs maybe a little larger than Kelsey
it was pretty clear from early on that some girls were just out of the running
Leonie's greet outfit
Aussie Girl Matilda, the red top was a little snug
Manitoba wildflowers
she could get the sleeve of the jacket on, just, the khaki pants were a success
she could even sit down in them without popping the fly
Carnaval Cozy
the fur coat was a success, the hood being only for show though
Night Owl nightwear
the pyjama shirt was a little tight
and her feet too big for the slippers
Leonie wearing Matilda's t-shirt
Leonie in Matilda's teddy onesie (the onesie is a baby size 0000, its big on everyone)
Leonie in the Our Generation dress from "A need for twead"
the jacket arms are too short for winter wear, but for spring no problem
the dress was gorgeous, the shoes did not fit
Tauralie (Truly Me #61) in Leonie's welcome outfit - success
Journey Girls open toe sandals
the ankle strap a little high in my opinion
The Manitoba Wildflowers outfit on Tauralie worked pretty well
just a little room in the trousers
perfect t
denim jacket - the sleeves were too long and wouldn't snap closed but just rolling the cuff up looked great
Leonie's arms are too long for American girl made things
American Girl skater hoodie (currently owned by BFC ink Maddie)
and the winner of the Most and Biggest Tags Award goes to
Pumpkin Patch Teddy fur coat, this is owned by Trinity, the arms are too short on Leonie by far, and it is less noticeable on Trinity as the body of the coat makes up for part of the sleeve
Trinity looked great in Leonie's Carnaval Cozy coat
Accessories- the mittens, I didn't try these on anyone other than
Maddie as her hands are more slender
now just to decide if they are mittens or oven mitts
Tzeitel tried on Leonie's pyjamas
maybe a little tight across the back
but definitely successful on the intended
I wasn't going to try Leonie's underthings on any one else, her stockings unfortunately had a hole in them when I took them out of the box. Fortunately human socks convert very nicely.
The shoes:
the feet
Maplelea, American Girl, Journey Girls, BFC ink
Maddie (BFC ink) and Leonie
Matilda (Australian Girl) and Leonie
Tauralie (American Girl) and Leonie
Leonie and Journey Girl Chavonne
Leonie tried on Chavonnes red slip ons - her feet were too long, Chavonne successfully wore Leonie's sneakers
Leonie could wear the Journey Girl open toed sandals
I think in the end each outfit will be a little hit or miss with other brands
