[h-cost] Prym/Dritz dress forms
My local Hancock Fabrics is having a sale with Prym/Dritz dress forms (the Twin Fit and My Double models) at $40 less than the usual price. I've never had a dress form, and I'm wondering whether to take advantage of this sale. Does anyone here have this kind of dress form? Is it good quality, or not worth bothering with?

It is the one true dress form. Get it. Dont bother with dial a dummies, duct tape ones or any of the non-pliable types. I've had mine for 20 yrs and it's put up with moderate use abuse... including 2 overseas moves. --cin Cynthia Barnes cinbar...@gmail.com On Wed, Oct 6, 2010 at 2:42 PM, Emily Gilbert emchantm...@gmail.com wrote: My local Hancock Fabrics is having a sale with Prym/Dritz dress forms (the Twin Fit and My Double models) at $40 less than the usual price.

I'm with the group that says get a Uniquely You, or a similar squishable, shapeable dress form. The hard ones like the Dritz form, which I did buy first (actually it was a birthday gift from my hubby), will not be shaped like you unless you do some major padding up from a smaller form. Mine never could be like me, as I have a long torso, and even padded it could not get longer in the middle - which meant its minimal behind was several inches higher than my behind. My old Dritz is now in the garage waiting for a yard sale, while I am now very happy using the UY.
