Create Your Own Female Dummy

Creating a female mannequin at home is possible with a few basic materials to hand. Simply wrap your body in layers of duct tape over a fitted garment, then carefully cut away or remove the garment and reinforce the tape shell with stuffing or foam. This form can then be mounted on a stand for use when creating clothes or for tailoring.

While this DIY approach offers a budget-friendly solution, our range of create-your-own female dummy components offers customisable designs with a more polished finish for shop displays or professional tailoring. 

If you regularly sew, alter, or design garments, investing in a female dummy for clothes is a worthwhile investment. Female dummies provide a stable, 3D form for draping, pinning, and fitting, helping you achieve accurate and consistent results. Whether you're working in a studio or at home, a professional female dummy saves time, improves accuracy, and creates a more refined finish for your clothes.

Our collection of modular female dummies for clothes is available with a range of customisable components and in a variety of finishes, from chrome metal stands to natural ash shaker necks. 
Retailers and dressmakers can also find different female body types and features to suit their brand aesthetic or garment requirements. All of our female dummy components are designed to fit together to create a bespoke female dummy option for your needs.
