A tailoring dummy is an essential part of any dressmaker’s studio. Available in a range of heights, sizes, colours and materials, a tailoring dummy is a great way to create the perfect style and fit for the outfit you’re creating.
Tailoring Dummy Structure
Constructed with a polystyrene torso, to allow pin penetration, tailoring dummies from Display Fix come in black, cream, silver and gold and are available in materials such as: classic jersey, crushed velour and sequins.
The tailoring dummy is supported by a chrome pole, topped with a wooden thistle cap and has a wooden tripod base.
Dummies are available as males, females and children in a variety of chest waist and hip sizes; with women available in sizes 8-16 and children available from 0-12 years. Every tailoring dummy is height adjustable, with adult dummies being adjustable from 157.5cm to 183cm (62” to 72”); this allows the dummies to be at just the right height for you when dressmaking.
Tailoring Dummy Benefits
Ideal for people just starting out in dressmaking and those with a wealth of experience, a tailoring dummy is essential for any dressmaker. A tailoring dummy helps with all aspects of dressmaking, including: provides a realistic hang and fit of the clothing item; allows you to check and alter any patterns and it also enables you to easily take up the hem single handedly.
As well as being an invaluable tool for all dressmakers, a tailoring dummy is also a great display tool in shop. A tailoring dummy can provide a very sophisticated, vintage feel to any shop and is a great way to display products. A tailoring dummy is best suited for boutique clothing stores (or stores who want to provide a ‘boutiquey’ feel), due to the quirky and classic style of the dummies.
At Display Fix you can be sure to find the perfect tailoring dummy to suit you, available in a fantastic range of materials, sizes and colours. Please visit our website to view our outstanding range of stock all designed to help improve you shop displays.
