My beloved dress form, Marty has been leveled up! She was just a cheap Styrofoam store display dress form from Amazon. I decided to make the BootStrap dress form but use her as a base. All in all it turned out amazing. She is my exact measurements and I can’t wait to make some thing on her. Obviously I made this entirely differently than you’re supposed to because I used the Styrofoam base. I also made it shorter than the pattern cuz I didn’t need the length. It is a bit tricky for someone in the itty bitty committee because the cups don’t allow for a lot of shape if they are shallow. But I think they are going to work just fine. I’m also definitely going to have to add some markings because the seams are not centered after going through the stuffing process. I already had the mannequin, the fabric, and the stuffing. I only paid for the pattern and the whole thing took maybe five or six hours. Totally worth it if I end up using it on a regular basis! Marty and her skeleton girlfriend are very happy with the results 🖤
