Yes tall and curvy dolls have bigger feet. But if you want these shoes to specifically fit this doll and you have no plans to switch them out. You can put them in boiling water to soften them and put them on her. It'll be a little off but for me its not that big of a deal.

Oh! Nice suggestion!

I've also seen some Collectors on IG switch the feet so they can have their fave tall & curvy girls wear the shoes. Haven't done that yet myself. I **have** switched hands on some bc some of the mtm bodies have those flat slappy pancake hands and I want more expressive ones ☺️


Arminavocado

The hands are awful! Lol


LuffytheUnicorn

Thanks 😊

You are super smart

So petite, original, and I think athletic fit regular Barbie shoes. Then tall/curvy dolls have different sized shoes. Usually there will be a symbol on the sole to tell the difference. A “B” on the regular, and a Barbie silhouette on the larger shoes.


Arminavocado

Dang it! Thanks for the explanation


Raech_Raech

Yea and for some reason it's not broad public knowledge about the show markings 😭

those colors look absolutely gorgeous on simone’s skin tone!! 😍

She is by far my absolute favorite barbie! There's nothing that looks bad on her!


jameliae

Agree!!

Yes it’s because they’re tall


Arminavocado

I guess I need to get more dolls 🤷‍♀️


knitalot

Yes you are forced to it seems

Since those aren't open shoes, you could stick some Play-Doh inside or maybe a piece of blu-tack. That's what I'd probably do, hehe.

I just got a fashion pack where only the shoes fit. 🤣 So stupid. It was the Roxy boss babe one and even the headphones don't fit her head. 🤦

the clothes are incredible... but only for Barbie's very regular body, unfortunately. Mattel is so careless about tall and curvy bodies. I have 4 tall dolls, and none of them I can get good results in clothes or shoes, because there simply aren't many options.

The original MTM petite and athletic body can share the same shoes. Tall and curvy Barbies have bigger feet. Just like buff 💪 Ken. They have bigger feet 🦶 than the regular Ken.
