When making a doll's corset of a scale to Barbie, I used tooth picks snipped to the length desired. otherwise the consrtuction was the same as I'd do for myself. My doll was squishable, so I'd guess that Barbie will have to have a bit of padding to fill in the gaps inside the corset. alex So much to do and so little attention span to get it done with…
