Welcome to my world, where my "children" never soil their clothing and always stand still to have their photographs taken.

When my own girls were small, their Cabbage Patch and Barbie Doll clothes were the envy of the neighborhood and elementary school.  My Barbie Doll gowns were highly sought after and prized as birthday gifts.  My adult art garments and doll clothing have won numerous ribbons and awards, largely due to their originality and meticulous construction.

My 18" doll clothing has become a business as well as a hobby.  The line you are about to view does not include the run-of-the-mill doll clothes available at craft fairs or on E-Bay for bargain prices.  My doll clothes are constructed like high-end ready-to-wear and are priced accordingly.  All seams are carefully finished and all bodices are lined.  These clothes will withstand playtime and washing.  Fabrics have been preshrunk.  Hand sewing is used when appropriate.  All buttons, snaps, and hooks are hand sewn and will not come loose at the tug of an errant thread.

Custom order is the only way I sell doll clothing.  The dresses are one-of-a-kind and will never be duplicated unless specifically ordered for twins.  No more than three dresses will ever be made from the same fabric, and the same fabric used in a different design dress will not be shipped to your city.  These are unique dresses made from my own original patterns.  You choose the style and color; I proceed from that point.

The other clothing items in my line are adaptations of my own original patterns as well as adaptations of some commercial patterns.  The same high standards of construction are used on all my garments.  They are all made to custom order.  As noted in the photographs and descriptions, in many cases you choose the colors.  Fabrics will probably vary from the pictures to maintain the uniqueness of these little treasures. 

All creations come from an entirely smoke-free environment. 

Please be sure to return every few weeks to see our newest creations added to the line.


You may order these beautiful little garments through my email  uniquedollfashions@gmail.com

Shipping will be Priority Mail from the U.S. Postal Service.  You choose your shipping packaging.  Many of these items can be shipped in small flat rate boxes or flat rate envelopes, but they will require careful ironing upon arrival.  Most of these garments are created from high quality cottons unless otherwise noted.  Items shipped in medium flat rate boxes will be stuffed with tissue and wrapped in tissue to avoid severe creasing.  Items will be shipped the day after checks have cleared the bank (about 2 weeks).  I hope to be able to accept PayPal very soon, and that will speed the processing.

Small Boxes or Flat Rate Envelopes -- Shipping and Handling Charge $5.00

Medium Flat Rate Boxes -- Shipping and Handling Charge $11.00

Prices listed are for clothing described only!  Dolls and shoes are not included and are not for sale!

I hope you enjoy looking at my line as much as I have enjoyed the creative process of getting it ready to share with you.
