Standard Dress Form Bottom Size 4 PDF Patterns

Patterns and detailed instructions for making the bottom section of a tailor's dress form.

Would you like to own a tailor's mannequin for designing, crafting, and displaying clothing? Make it yourself with instructions from BetterSew!

The dress form is crafted from affordable materials available for purchase or order from various sources. The soft outer shell stuffed with polyester fiberfill allows to stick pin at any angle and depth, facilitating clothing design, including the use of the dummy or mock-up method. Supported by a rigid frame, the dress form accurately replicates the female body's anatomy, featuring standard figure dimensions. The segmented design with split legs and soft buttocks enables work with form-fitting pants, panties, or swimwear.

Please be aware that the dress form comes in separate sections. This product provides instructions and patterns only for the bottom part of the torso with split legs. If you plan to assemble a complete torso, you will also need a top of the same size. Additionally, we offer patterns for the torso cover, along with patterns for the head and arms (already included with the covers).

See the "Documentation" tab for a size chart, measurement recommendations, and a list of materials needed for manufacturing.
