How to Dress Your Labubu Doll: The Right Way to Put on Labubu Clothes (Without Stretching or Damage)
Share
If you recently bought a cute outfit for your Labubu doll and had trouble putting it on, don’t worry — you are not alone!
Many Labubu collectors have the same question:
“Why doesn’t the shirt fit my Labubu?”
“Is the outfit too small?”
“Did I receive the wrong size?”
The good news is: in most cases, the outfit is not too small. The secret is knowing the correct way to dress your Labubu.
Unlike regular dolls, Labubu has a unique body shape with a large head and a small body, which makes putting clothes on slightly different from other dolls.
Why Can’t Labubu Wear Clothes From the Head First?
Many people naturally try to put a shirt on Labubu the same way we dress ourselves:
- Put the shirt over the head
- Pull it down over the body
- Adjust the sleeves
However, because Labubu has a bigger head compared to its body, the neckline of many outfits cannot easily pass over the head.
When you force the shirt from the top, you may feel:
- The neck opening seems too small
- The fabric feels tight
- The outfit looks like it does not fit
This can make collectors think they received the wrong size.
But actually, the outfit is designed to fit Labubu’s body shape.
The Correct Way: Put Labubu Clothes On From the Feet Up
The easiest method is:
Step 1: Turn the outfit upside down
Hold the shirt or jersey with the collar opening facing downward.
Step 2: Start from Labubu’s feet
Instead of putting the outfit over Labubu’s head, gently put the outfit through the feet first.
Slide the collar opening upward from the legs.
Step 3: Pull the outfit up slowly
Move the clothing upward:
Feet → Legs → Body → Shoulders
Once the outfit reaches the shoulders, gently adjust the sleeves and collar.
Step 4: Enjoy your new Labubu look!
Your Labubu will now be dressed comfortably without forcing the neckline or stretching the fabric.
