What clothes can Makies wear?

yeah that's it. The EAH doll names are just... oh gosh. I have to open Duchess still, she's a very pretty doll.
I like the boys, the remind me of Bratz Boyz which were the first doll line I ever collected. I have a soft spot for them.

Many Blythe size clothes fit Makie girls, as long as they are not too tight and everything that stretches, like tights and leggings and stuff like that fits great.  
I always use Blythe clothes patterns to sew for my Makie and they usually fit great

Hi! I just discovered that most of the DressYourDoll clothes also fit Makies! These are pre-printed patterns on fabric which you need to sew yourself, these are some outfits I just made for my new Makie:

They look like fun, she looks ready for the summer!

Any one know about Kurhn dolls? Theres a few fashions from those I'd like to nab

I have a khurn, i'll check later. They're pretty skinny, but like.. barbie skinny.

How did you get yours if you don't mind me asking. I know there's places like taobao and aliexpress that probably do them, but I find them rather intimidating

I actually found her in a charity shop of all places. She didn't come with her clothes but i'll try to dig her out and take a photo of her body alongside a Makie haha, should give an idea of approximate sizings anyway. Poor girl, I intended to reroot her but have never quite gotten around to it, i'm really lazy like that.

Ok, so... Khurn dolls are kinda Moxie Girl sized around the torso. This means most tops are too tight unless they're stretchy but pants look like they'll fit. (but be waaaay too long). Baggier styles of outfit are likely to fit in the same way blythe stuff can stretch to fit heh. But yeah, she's pretty rake thin,

Hey all, I'm just wondering does anyone know how well, if at all, barbie sized skirts fit male bodied makies? And if not if there are any doll skirts that would fit?

Barbie stuff from modern (post 2000?) Barbie should fit as she has a much wider waist. The earlier ones, some skirts fit but some are too tight around the waist thanks to the original body's wasp waist of riblessness lol.
The boy and girl waist isn't actually that much different, it's the shoulders/bust region that changes.
As a result, most stuff that fits the girl body will also fit the boy body around the waist.

Bratz Boy pants are a bit tight on the boys (though the most recent Bratz boy stuff seems to fit perfectly around the waist and length-wise too. Tops are a bit tight though)
Barbie trousers def fit the boys and skirts will as well, just watch length.
I'll get some pics if you like, what sort of skirts were you thinking? Kilt-like? or actual frilly skirts?

True story! Garrak can share pants with all my girls, so I'm sure he could wear their skirts too.

Thank you! That helps an awful lot.
Glad to hear their waists are similar sizes, guess I just have to worry about tops then.
Uh I'm looking for like, long (for a makie) flowing summery skirts I think? But yeah basically actual frilly skirts. Pics would be honestly fantastic if you have the time, that's very kind of you.

I have a few long skirts I think, Lirel usually wears em heh. I'll try to get some shots of one of my boys in em, IF I can find my stupid sd card reader. It's gone awol again.

Aww, it's fine if you can't, don't go hunting around everywhere if it's inconvenient. Just knowing they'll fit is really useful. Devon will likely refuse to come out of his tube if I don't have a change of clothes waiting for him.

Ok, Sindy skirts from the 70s and 80s seem to fit the boys fine. Barbie stuff is a little tighter and might not totally do up at the back. I tried a couple and one did up and the other wouldn't, so seems to depend on if they're hipster cut or high waist. Sindy stuff on the other hand seemed to fit a bit more consistantly.
Long skirt-wise, I tested out the brown and white skirt http://www.oursindymuseum.com/1979%20Mix%20&%20Match/Mix%20Match%201979%20group.JPG here which is full length on a Makie and it fits the boy body nicely actually heheh.

Looks like I'm going to need to trawl ebay for a nice Sindy skirt or two then and maybe snap up a mixed lot of barbie and bratz boyz clothes to test the water with as well.
Thank you again for taking the time to do that! I really appreciate it.

Has anyone ever tried to alter American Girl dresses to fit Makies? I ask because if I try to sew my own I'd be doing it all by hand, plus I just started working at the AG Place so I'd get an alright discount.

Some dresses like these without actual sleeves to worry about, could I just cut a bit out from the back and resew it tighter? Maybe flip the bottoms under and make them shorter? Except for Julie's though, I'd probably find a way to gather it up at the sides somehow since it has such great prints.

AG clothes are too big for that. I'd suggest trying to alter Barbie or Liv stuff instead.

Ahh, ok thanks!

No problem! Actually, Liv dresses and shirts that are loose at the waist or empire-waisted are best. Liv has a smaller waist than Makies. This is a Liv dress on my Lizzie to show what I mean by "loose waist". The dress is the floral garment on the right.

Here's a photo that shows the Monster High boys fit on makies!

Everything apart from the doc martins on the left are all from MH boys. I've only got these two outfits, but they both fit. The velcro doesn't really reach so well on the red shorts, but the shorts stay up no problem, and the velcro is covered up by the long shirt.

Not that there's much selection around for MH boys. But just in case anybody really liked an outfit and wanted to know if it'd fit: I'm pretty sure it will!

yeah the mh boy tops can be a bit tight hahah. I have a few on my boys, they look nice from the front even if they don't totally fasten at the back. It's fiiiine.

Ooh really? The two I have are loose and fasten no problem, with room to breathe. It could be because it's on the 'girl' body, or it could be because the tops are from the CAM gargoyle and vampire boys, but in these two cases the tops fit just like normal loose t-shirts.

If I get any normal-line MH boys (you know, when they're not like a million pounds compared to the girls), I'll do more dressing up, see if there's a difference between those and CAMs. XD

(edit: or did you mean the bottoms/shorts/trousers? because haha yeah, they don't fit perfectly. XD)

Gabe often wears Jackson's little vest thing and it fits but it's a little tight at the back heh. Zhi stole Deuce's scaris top which again, fits but it's a bit tight (it does do up though). Invisibilly's hoodie is cute on the girls, it's all baggy haha.
I have a LOT of mh dolls *snicker*
I love the way the shoes fit though because they go on and come off so much easier than Ken shoes. They're nice and soft and a bit chunkier so help balance out the big ol' head.
