Most of them have a standard teloid with the following parameters: height - 21.5 cm; chest girth m - 7.5 cm; girth under the chest - 5.5 cm; waist circumference - 5-6 cm; the girth of the hips is about 10 cm. The monster pupae have an unnaturally large head, narrow shoulders, long arms and legs. Their waistline is not clearly marked, the back has a complex bend. Therefore, it is very difficult to sew something "according to the figure" for them.

Also, don't forget about the monster-glam style of the dolls. Choose for them flowing fabrics in rich colors, such as satin or jacquard.

  • threads to match
  • satin ribbons in contrasting color

    Due to numerous requests and hints of workers, I want to show you how to sew easily, quickly and neatly a dress for your favorite doll! I warn you right away that with some moments the professionals of cutting and sewing may disagree with me. In this master class, I simplify many points. So, as a doll, my daughter's doll will be loved. Let's get started!

    We will need small cuts of fabric in the color you like, preferably cotton or soft linen. Lace and ribbons for decor, three buttons for fastening, threads and inspiration!

    1. Making a pattern. To be honest, I don't like to bother too much, so I fold the album sheet in half, put it on the doll (mentally dividing the doll in half). I draw a pattern, cut it out, adjust it and we get about the following pattern for the front of the bodice.

    2. Next, folding the fabric twice, lay out our pattern and redraw it in front of the bodice, then, folding the pattern in half again, draw a mirror-like back shelves. Notice how the lines run. For convenience, of course, you can make a separate shelf pattern. We raise the neckline and lengthen the side cut by a centimeter and a half. We cut out, grabbing two layers of fabric with scissors at once. We cut out with allowances for seams. As a result, we should get two front and four rear shelves.

    3. Sew lace to the front detail of the bodice in this way, but so that the line does not pass through the holes on the lace - they will still be useful to us for lacing!

    5. Now we fold both sets with the front sides inward and sew them together, leaving only the bottom and side cuts. We make cuts at the fillet points. We turn it out and iron it. Here's what you should get.

    6. Now we sew the side cuts so that the seam is inside this whole "structure".

    7. Set the bodice aside and prepare the hem. We measure the desired length, taking into account the seams and hem. For me it turned out to be a cut of 20 by 80 cm. We process the side cuts with a zigzag stitch, bend it once to the wrong side and sew it. We bend the bottom cut of the hem inward twice and sew it too. We iron it out!

    8. We make a line along the upper cut of the hem, pull the lower thread and tighten the hem to the desired size (waist circumference). Further attention! We fold the bodice and hem with the wrong sides to each other. Sew the hem to the bodice only to the purl "set" of the bodice. When we finish sewing and unscrew the hem, it should look like this.

    The inside of the dress should look like this - a photo of a slightly different dress, then I forgot to take a photo at this stage.

    10. Sew the buttons on the back, make laces from the ribbon, put the dress on the doll and hand it to the happy child!

    Sample dresses made in the same way!

    Thank you very much for your attention and enjoy your creativity!

    Dolls are perhaps the most popular toys for girls. Neither soft bears and bunnies, nor constructors, nor various sets of a doctor or a cook can compare with them. And how babies love beautiful outfits with sparkles, pebbles and beads! And why not please your child with a new chic outfit for your favorite toy, especially since it is not at all difficult to sew beautiful dresses for dolls, you just need to find time and suitable scraps for this. Any old costume jewelry, small artificial flowers and ribbons are suitable as decorations, which will give the dress an exquisite finished look.

    So, in this article we will talk about how to sew a dress for a doll, starting with the development of a template pattern and ending with decorative trim.

    How to make a template

    At first glance, it may seem that the pattern of a dress for a doll is done through complex calculations, but this is not at all the case. There is an easier way. For example, to make a pattern for the upper part of a dress, you should measure the girth of the doll's chest, as well as the girth of the waist and hips. You should also measure the height of the bodice from the hip line to the waist and to the chest. After these measurements you need to transfer to a sheet of paper. To do this, draw a vertical line on it and, based on the measurements taken, mark three points: chest, waist and hips. Further from these points, ¼ part of the values ​​of the corresponding circles is laid aside. In conclusion, from the chest line, the top of the bodice is raised to the desired height, and the side line is drawn. As a result, the drawing should show half of the bodice front template. For a more accurate fit, darts are made under the bust, thereby reducing the figure of the side seam line. If the dress is intended for a Barbie doll or other model with large breasts, then initially the measurement of the waist should be increased by about one and a half centimeters, which will then be closed in darts.

    First fitting

    How to sew a dress for a doll without trying on? Of course, according to a proven pattern! However, to make it perfect, you need to modify the template drawn on paper. And after all the corrections, it will be possible to sew various dresses for this doll, even without even having the model itself at hand. So, the template is applied to the cardboard, outlined and cut out. Next, the finished pattern is transferred to the fabric, and when cutting, seam allowances are added.

    Cutting out the details of the bodice from the fabric, they are sewn and tried on on the doll. Here you will immediately see where improvements are needed. Usually these include additional darts at the waistline and above the chest. They will definitely need to be noted on the cardboard template in order to further simplify your work with other outfits. Further, in order to sew a dress for a doll, a master class with a step-by-step description will be very useful.

    How to decorate the bodice of a dress

    In order for the product to come out neat, it is best to make the bodice of the dress lined, and therefore one more detail of the top of the dress should be sewn from a simpler and thinner fabric. It should be connected to the front part along the upper line, closing the seam inward. To do this, both blanks are folded with their front sides to each other and a seam is laid along the upper cut above the chest. The seams are also stitched in the place of the future fastener. As a result, open cuts should remain only on the line of the bodice and skirt connection. The finished upper part of the dress can be decorated with rhinestones, fabric flowers, beads, ribbons or guipure lace.

    How to make a skirt for a dress

    When working with a skirt, first of all, you need to decide on the model of the dress. There can be a lot of design options for skirts for a dress: year, fluffy pleated, with ruffles, long and fluffy, short tight-fitting, bell, straight with a long train or with a symmetrical hem. Depending on the chosen model, based on the pattern of the same bodice, you can create completely different outfits.

    How to sew a dress for a doll with a fluffy skirt? This is perhaps the simplest version of the bottom of the dress. For him, you only need a waist measurement. To decorate it, it is necessary to cut a strip of fabric equal to the length of the skirt, and the width will depend on the desired splendor of the future dress. So, a strip of fabric is sewn, leaving room for a fastener, the bottom of the skirt is also hemmed, all decorative elements such as frills, ribbons and lace are sewn to it. After that, the top of the skirt is gathered in folds, to the width of the measurement of the waist, and the thread is fixed.

    Assembling parts

    When the bodice and skirt are ready, it's time to put them together in a dress. To do this neatly, you must first sew a seam "forward with the needle", and then trim the excess fabric, leaving 0.3 cm of the edge, then process the cut with a overcast seam. After that, a narrow satin ribbon is carefully sewn over it, tucking it at the edges, where the fastener will be. At the end, sew a strip of Velcro to close the seam in the middle of the back.

    How to sew a wedding dress for a doll

    Probably all girls dream of a wedding dress for their dolls. And to make your dream come true, you just need to pick up a white satin fabric for a dress and a mesh for a veil, as well as decorative elements, and then make an outfit according to the description above. The top is decorated with tulle and pearl beads.

    The above description is only a basis, using which, it is easy to create various images. After all, knowing the principle of how to sew a dress for a doll, you can make amazing outfits, complementing them with various details. For example, a bridal veil can be easily made from a rectangular piece of mesh attached to a small hairpin decorated with flowers or beads at the junction. Such an image is sure to please the owner of the doll! What about a crown, gloves and a fur cape on the shoulders? There is no limit to imagination, which means that the doll's wardrobe should be replenished regularly!

    Almost every little girl loves to play with dolls and of course dress them up in different outfits. This master class on sewing a fluffy dress for a Barbie doll will help you please your princess. The dress, which is proposed to be sewn, consists of a top and a "sun" skirt, as well as a fluffy petticoat.

    Dress for doll size: 9 cm waist, hips 13 cm, chest 12.5 cm. The length of the dress will be about 18 cm from the top of the bodice to the bottom edge, it will be just below the knee. To do this, you will need:

    1.40 cm by 24 cm tulle;
    2. 25x30 cm crystal or satin;
    3.2 cm Velcro;
    4.1 meter of bias inlay;
    5. thread elastic for the petticoat;
    6. beads and ribbons for decoration;
    7. threads according to the color of the material;
    8. Velcro.

    We take tulle, fold it in half, cut it, we get two strips 12 cm wide and 20 cm long.

    Sew the tulle edges.

    We process the edge of the petticoat with an oblique inlay, it keeps its shape well. Before stitching, you can baste the tape so that it does not slip out when sewing, and the edge is neat.

    Now, with the help of an elastic thread, we make a small assembly of tulle. We tighten the elastic - it turns out a magnificent petticoat.

    Let's start sewing the upper part of the dress. Making patterns for dolls is quite difficult, so we proceed as follows. We apply a piece of crystaline 5 cm wide to the doll's bodice and fix the grooves on the chest and back with hairpins.

    We outline our workpiece. We wrap the edges with two undercuts on the front of the chest and on the back, taking into account the overlap for the Velcro. The lower edges of the bodice are scorched.

    We will sew all the seams and sew on the Velcro. It is rare to find a very thin Velcro, so just cut the one we have. You can use buttons instead of Velcro.

    On a large piece of crystaline, draw a circle with a diameter of about 28 cm with soap, and cut it out. Don't draw by hand, use a compass or a centimeter.

    Also cut out a circle in the center so that the doll will pass. And we singe the edges, as crystaline and satin are crumbled. The scorched edge turns out to be neat, so you can leave it without finishing. The dress will be airy and the hem will not be heavy.

    We will make a belt from a bias tape, sweep everything together and grind it down.

    We decorate the belt with beads and a satin ribbon. We alternate small beads of beads with sticks. Sew on with a thin fishing line. Sew the tape to the belt with small overlaps. Also, you could leave the edges of the ribbon long and make a bow at the back.

    And here is the result of all the labors. You can also, if there is material left, make a hat!
