Monster High Gooliope Jellington - What fits?

Gooliope Jellington - she's HUGE so what fits?
It's a great question right? I have many many dolls to test the clothes from.
As I've said before, she's as large as Mina (1/4th BJD) with her shoes on. (Mina is a full 18in tall, Gooliope is 17in)

Barbie clothes:
YES, Some.
Some dresses, tops, and skirts. NO on the pants - because, obviously.

Delilah Noir:
SORT OF
The skirt needs to be taken in, the sleeves are a bit long. Socks are great :D
Overall, not too bad, but not a great fit. Some work and it'll be perfect!

Franklin Mint Guinevere:
Again, SORT OF
The sleeves are a great fit, it's a dress so that's in it's favor! The belt even sits on her fat hips, a PLUS!! But again it's her top... She has a small bosom and most of these other dolls of mine don't.
It needs to be pinned, so a little work and it fits. If she's just sitting around, it works great.
Front of the Guinevere Dress, not too shabby
But it needs pinned!!
Gene Marshall:
Another SORT OF - (see torso comments above!)
The shorts fit GREAT! And I mean great! NO ISSUE. Perfect size to close. Gene is a 15 1/2in doll, so I'm thinking the pants would end up being highwaters, but the shorts - A+
The dress - also a half fit. The top needs to be pinned. Like I said, if she is just sitting on a shelf, the pin isn't a problem. If you're playing with her...
I do have a few patterns for Gene so I think I can work with it pretty easy.
I made the socks for Mina, of course they fit great!!
She looks awesome!
Needs a pin on top
Mina, my BJD:
Not a chance.
The fit was so laughable, I couldn't even get a photo. Mina is a big girl, but I did get a good idea how to resize the bodices I make to have them fit Gooliope! Won't be too hard I think.


Ellowyne Wilde:
SORT OF...ish
Now I know El has close to the same portions as Mina, but there is some slight variation.
I know she'd have the same problems with Ellowyne tops as she does with all the others.
Now the pants... These pants were made specifically for Ellowyne, (I know, I made them! - Also pants are EASY to make. Like easy easy easy. First thing I ever made, pants.)
Ellowyne has a stockier body than Gooliope, but the length is perfect!
I pinned the pants about 2 inches. Yea, it's a lot, but I can make these for Gooliope no problemo now!
Nice to know I barely have to alter the pattern :D

Size Comparison Part Deux!

Happy Birthmas to me!! Mom got me Delilah Noir! <3 Awesome awesome!

So I got Once Bitten, Twice Shy Delilah:
So here are the two views of Delilah (never mind the cat or Ellowyne's arm in the background)
 

She seriously looks like 2 different dolls!!!!
Now as far as the size comparison - I was sizing her next to Ellowyne and Gene. P.S. Ellowyne looks AMAZING in Delilah's clothes!!! Honestly I think it's impossible to take a bad pic of El.

So Delilah and Gene: (Gene yellowed and I have no idea what to do!!)
 
Delilah is much wider than Gene - she has some crazy hips!!
 

Then there's Delilah and Ellowyne: (Seriously much closer in body size)

 El and Delilah - then reversed the clothing! So cute!

 El fits Delilah's clothes great!
 ::Proving El never takes a bad picture!::


Yes I know the cat thinks he needs in every picture!

El, Delilah, and Gene

Size comparison

It's so hard to find clothes for some dolls. I was recently given a Card Captor Sakura doll by my mother-in-law(she found it at the Goodwill!) and to my surprise her clothes fit Monster High!
Sakura and Gloom Beach Cleo
Despite the obvious size difference in the Sakura and MH dolls, Sakura's body is thin enough to let the MH dolls wear her clothes. Cleo is currently wearing Sakura's school uniform. Of course shoes are going to be the only thing that none of my dolls can share unless they are the same brand of doll! Also at the moment Sakura is wearing a dress that belongs to one of my Zodiac Girlz dolls -also fits Cleo quite well.


Speaking of comparisons ...
We've got a few more! In the pic before you is Mina(sans wig), and 2 wicked witches. The one on the left is the Wilde Imagination Witch and the one on the right is Tonner. (Yes, I know Tonner technically does both dolls, it's just a difference in sculpt) While Mina looks to be the same size, she is in fact, bigger. She's on the floor a good 4 inches down from the 2 on the box. Mina is close in size to the Wilde Imagination witch, but she is far bustier! The Witch's dress Mina has on does not button completely in the back.
