Doll Sizing Discovery - AG and OG Variations

I recently created a Peaches and Cream outfit and tested it on various dolls. Unlike my previous experiment with American Girl and Our Generation dolls, where I found their clothing to be interchangeable, this outfit revealed some interesting sizing differences.

As it turns out, American Girl dolls come in slightly varying sizes! My Blaire doll is the smallest, followed by Courtney, and my CYO doll is the largest. Meanwhile, the Our Generation dolls are noticeably smaller.

The Peaches and Cream outfit, designed to fit snugly, highlighted these subtle size differences. As soon as I found this out, I sized it to fit my CYO, the largest of the dolls. You can always take in an outfit to make it fit, or use pins to tighten it, but it's much more difficult to loosen it up to fit a larger doll. This is why it's so important to try it on the doll often, to make adjustments if needed.

This has led me to a realization: using Our Generation (OG) dolls to showcase my outfits might not be the best approach, especially for designs meant to fit snugly. The size difference between OG dolls and American Girl dolls is more significant than I anticipated, affecting the fit and overall appearance of the outfits.
