Who needs a Sewing Form?
If you're involved in dressmaking or alterations to garments, you need a sewing form. Understanding the special requirements of sewers has helped the Adjustoform Group produce a range of products designed to suit beginners and experienced dressmakers alike. Constant research enables us to offer products with the features you have requested. A dressform will make garment making and alterations easier, more satisfying and more rewarding than you ever thought possible. It's the only sure way of achieving a really professional look to garments, whether you're making clothes for yourself or someone else.
Will a Dress Form make sewing easier?
A dressform, especially one personalised to your body measurements, helps you to check a garments fit, including placements of darts, neckline and buttonholes. It allows you to accurately mark a hemline, to see whether a garments fabric is hanging on grain, and to ensure that the seams hang straight. Apart from these more obvious benefits dressforms allow you to fit a paper pattern prior to cutting it from fabric. It also allows you to view and fit the back of a garment (nearly impossible to do on yourself!). A dressform provides a canvas on which to pin contrasting or co-ordinating fabrics as well as giving you the ability to drape fabric to create your own garment designs. A dressform is a must for ALL garment sewers!
