GREAT SUCCESS!!!
I have figured out how to fix this problem, and so in the event anyone else experiences similar issues, I shall now detail how I have fixed the problem!
Firstly, I have my clean install of SOA + TOB, this is probably pretty important (though, if you have the original paperdol.bif (one l, not a typo) in your data folder, this will still work with a modded copy)
Then, you will need DLTC editor or a similar utility which is capable of extracting .bif files. (You can find this at sorceror's place)
Enter DLTC editor, finish the quick setup (this is easy, when using the provided readme file)
Navigate yourself to the data folder, find the paperdol.bif, then extract it using the extraction tool.
The files will be placed in the override folder of the install which you used, so if you used a separate clean install, you will need to then transfer the 415 files it extracts from the clean install's override folder to the mod install's override folder.
Then, you will have the original Baldur's Gate 2 paperdolls in your game (in all their arguable ugliness ), and your clipping problems should be over with!
I believe this could also be done with the Baldur's Gate 1 files, though I have not tested it myself. Many people prefer the BG1 paperdolls, so that may be a better option for some.
