Womens clothes from Shein or Amazon and many others are pretty darn cheap.

Just beware of buying dark clothes on the cheap as the colour will bleed thru, even if you wash 10x the risk is still there.

WM 160A pretty small height and chest but fairly large arse, looks amazing but she is complex to buy for.

Tops and bottoms are best option in XS for top and S for bottom, got to read the size charts though as many companies vary.

If in doubt buy size smaller as TPE on WM is pretty soft so she can squeeze in, better than loose outfits.

It makes no sense why they can't be 100% scale to a human. The correct size of feet won't hardly add any weight to the doll. It really complicates shoe shopping. Surely Asian women models don't have that small of feet. There are a lot of topic threads on TDF about poor LHP and nipples being in the wrong place on the breasts. I searched the topic threads and the only mentions of feet in topics seems to be specific to certain brands and the model (I.E. a doll someone bought). I can't find any extensive topic thread about the poor sizing of doll feet.

I've got 5 dolls now and ALL OF THEM have poorly undersized feet. And they aren't even comparable to the shoe size that fits their foot. Most dolls feet are around 8 inches (20 cm). I ordered some athletic shoes to fit 8.25 inches (21 cm). The shoes have velcro straps. Received the shoes and put them on the dolls feet. They are just a bit long and wouldn't fit on a real girl's feet if her feet were the same length as the dolls feet (the feet would be sliding around in the shoe). But on the dolls feet, the velcro straps barely attach because the feet are so stupid small (girth/how wide the feet are). I pull the velcro strap around her ankle and the velcro connection just bypasses attaching - it ends up being too long to secure. I could pack something inside the shoe to make up for that, but why??? We don't do that with our human feet.

Why is this such a problem? Doll manufacturers - IF you're reading this, FIX the problem. This is absolutely ridiculous and uncalled for.
They are small overall but I've found some really good shoes with just shopping around. Especially for boots, Mira rocks boots (see sig.). Of all shoes, sandals are the hardest as there is so little support underneath to brace the foot when standing. Mira's feet are a little too small and her hands a little too big. But hey, overall she rocks so I just roll with it. And I guess Asian women models do have tiny feet tbh. I mean a size 3 isn't that miniscule, I've had two gfs with that exact size.

Isa and I just love SHEIN. They also carry a decent selection of petite sizing (dress example below), which I find sometimes to be the best fit, requiring little or no adjustment/alterations.

Great prices (see data at bottom) on quality wigs and jewelry, too. She currently wears (in the recent pics on our thread) a wig, necklace and glasses from there, with another necklace and ring currently on the way.

We have also found good success on Amazon, for the aforementioned (good size guides, reviews) reasons by Technician. Her new chemise is a good example (also below).

Also, here's a list which I posted to another (Valentine's Day gifts) thread, of things we've now bought from SHEIN, to give a good example of their pricing (USD):

ring $2.69
personalized necklace $1.60
necklace $1.28
brown wig $11.48
auburn wig $8.68
dress $9.77
brown glasses $2.03
black glasses $1.62
bralette $5.09

TOTAL: $44.24 (+ sales tax and shipping)
I didn't even realize they had wigs, how is the quality?

They have almost everything there. Very good quality....these are the two that I got for Isa (you can also see her in the brown one, at the bottom of page 6 on our thread):

The two shots I posted above are from the product pages at SHEIN and Amazon, not mine. 😉
