A custom dress form? But how?

A custom dress form? But how?

Here is a ‘to do list’ for finding a local dress form maker, anywhere in the world

This is my personal example of how I made mine.

And then I made this website work instruction so you can too.

Have fun!

In short

You want a replica dress form of yourself so that you can make all your sewing projects exactly to your own body shape and posture.

Step 01

You have a 3D scan made, of yourself

Step 02

You email this scan to a company, that makes styrofoam figures

Step 03

You place the dress form torso on a stand at home

Is that really as easy as it sounds?

Yes and no.

+ Yes, because the technology is available and accessible, to have a replica of yourself, made in styrofoam.

– No, it’s not super easy, because it takes time, money, patience and energy. And above all: some steps require the right people to help you.

How?

This website is a passion project,

not for profit.
