The features of this 8-part form with legs make it ideal for use in sewing jackets, skirts, long and short dresses, coats, and with the important additional feature of trouser/pants fitting. This must surely be the most versatile sewing form on the market.

Suitable for making trousers, this dress form features an additional column inside the body. By having the pole off-centre, you can prevent the pole from being where the crotch should be and hang trousers in their natural position. This can be done by unsecuring and lifting the model off the pole, checking underneath and sliding the pole into the off-set column (the one not in the middle).

Features:
• Long 8 part body
• Split waist to enable lengthening
• Wide supportive shoulders
• 12 thumb wheel adjusters
• Easy dial neck adjuster
• Shaped hips, bottom and thighs for pants/trouser fitting
• Comprehensive calibration tapes
• Off-set column to enable pants/trouser to hang straight

Dress form FAQs

What does 'suitable for making trousers' mean?
Dress forms suitable for making trousers feature an additional column inside the body. By having the pole off-centre, you can prevent the pole from being where the crotch should be and hang trousers in their natural position. This can be by unsecuring and lifting the model off the pole, checking underneath and sliding the pole into the off-set column (the one not in the middle).

I’m between two sizes, which one do I pick?
You go ahead and measure yourself only to find you sit perfectly between two sizes and now aren’t sure which to one go for? We always recommend picking the smaller dress form. While you can go along and pad a dress form bigger and more reflective of your individual body shape, you can’t pad a dress form smaller!

What can I use to pad a model with?
Anything and everything! The most common is using a bra to pad out the bust area on our female forms but we’ve seen quilters wadding, crepe bandages, bubble wrap, even a yoga mat! We recommend using a well-fitting garment to help guide you to pad to your body shape.

How do you use a hem marker?
Most models feature a ‘Pin Grip’ hem marker. To use this, first off you should decide on the appropriate height of your hem and raise the hem marker attachment to the appropriate level (you can do this by moving the little handle to lock and unlock the hem marker). Once the hem marker is in position, close the grip around the fabric and slide a pin through the aligned holes. Once the pin is through, open the grip and rotate the body. Repeat until you have a set of pins marking the hem.
