Japanese doll clothes for 18-inch dolls are sewn easily.

Japanese clothes for 18-inch dolls: The Japanese kimono is a crossover style of robe without shaping, held in place with an obi, or sash. This kimono, designed by Gloria Kemp, is the yukata, a casual, unlined dress. It is made from indigo-dyed cotton and can have simple or complex designs. It is worn with zori, or thong-style sandals. Pattern for Japanese clothes includes a kimono, obi and shoes.

Japanese clothes fit 18-inch dolls (those with vinyl head, arms and legs and a cloth stuffed body) such as The American Girls Collection® by the Pleasant Company, Götz Dolls® (non-designer) and many others. The Japanese clothes are actually designed to fit The American Girls Collection® and Götz Dolls® (non-designer) loosely to allow for individual differences in the stuffing of the dolls. They will also fit the following dolls: Dress Me Doll© from The Martha Pullen Company, Faithful Friends Collection®, Liberty Landing®, Girls on the Go®, Savannah of Storybook Heirlooms™, Laura Ashley®, Collector's Lane®, Creative Doll Company®, Springfield Collection®, Sophia's Heritage Collection®, Autumn Harvest™ and Our Generation™ and miscellaneous composition and porcelain dolls. Since some dolls, such as Liberty Landing®, Autumn Harvest™ and Our Generation™, are a little thinner, you may want to check the size of your doll and adjust the pattern slightly for a better fit.

Infinite Freedom and Sally Robertson are not associated with any of the above named dolls or companies in any way.
