dancerjodiI guess I have a lot to say today :)
I'm looking to buy a vintage adjustable dress form on Ebay at some point soon. I don't know a thing about them, can gather that they come with size ranges, and I know I want one w/ a stand so it can be at person height (rather than sitting on a table).
Do any of you crafty people have any suggestions or things to stay away from? Thanks in advance!
I'm watching a bid for an Acme one (hee hee) that's the right size, a good price, looks to be in good condition . . . but I'm concerned about how its adjusted (I can't see knobs or buttons on the outside from the pix).

Re: dress forms
Date: 2003-09-08 08:47 am (UTC)It is a little hard to adjust and is a little battered, but that will differ with each one. My dad was able to put it on the settings of my measurements fairly easily.
That sucks about your mom's getting thrown out! Kinda like my dad's baseball cards :)
