Dressforms have many uses:
- Allow you to pin-up clothes to see how they look and hang before sewing-up
- Check and modify your pattern before cutting the cloth, saving time and materials
- Set sleeves, collars and pockets accurately
- Create level hemlines without an assistant; fit linings and zips accurately with the garment held in its natural 3-dimensional shape
- Shape and hang garments on the form overnight for accurate hemlines
- Judge the overall impact of patterned fabrics
- Finalise trim, belt and buttonhole placements

If you have made widening adjustments to the model, attach a strip of widening adjustments to the model, attach a strip of wide tape or ribbon to fill in the open areas.
For easy positioning, apply basting tape along the lengthwise edges of the tape.
A pencil or stitching line can be added to centre of the tape to identify reference points such as centre front, centre back and side seams. |
|
For figure characteristics that may require extra padding, for example, curved back, high hip protruding abdomen, fill in the area with polyester batting held in place with a covering of thin fabric. The covering may be applied to the dressform using basting tape or pins.
This technique is also useful if you need to achieve a dimension that is beyond the maximum size of the dressform. |
