Pinnable Canvas Dress Form for Sewing and Draping
The mannequin features a canvas-covered foam body designed for use with suitable dressmaking pins.
Secure fabric temporarily to the dress form while exploring garment shapes, testing draping techniques or arranging pattern pieces.
The pinnable surface is particularly useful for sewing students, dressmakers and fashion designers who prefer working with fabric on a three-dimensional body.
Whether creating dresses, blouses, jackets or other suitable garments, the mannequin provides a practical reference for reviewing shape and fabric placement.
Use appropriate pins carefully and avoid forcing them into the body or repeatedly pinning the same area unnecessarily.
Adjustable Height from 140cm to 170cm
The adjustable aluminium support pole allows the mannequin’s overall height to be changed between 140cm and 170cm.
This flexibility makes it easier to position garments at a suitable working height or create attractive clothing displays in boutiques and showrooms.
Adjust the mannequin for different display arrangements, workbench heights or garment lengths, then secure the stand according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Please note: Only the overall height is adjustable. The bust, waist, hips and shoulder measurements are fixed and cannot be expanded or reduced.

The detachable base is made from PP plastic and connects to the mannequin through an aluminium support pole.
Its elegant shape complements sewing studios, boutiques, fashion classrooms and creative workspaces.
The detachable construction also makes the mannequin more convenient to store when not required.
Always position the stand on a firm, level surface and check that the components are properly secured before use.
