Someone said: >> fit. Besides being pinnable, the other bonus is that >> it is squishable, so I can hopefully corset it, too... >> with a little added padding in the breast area, as I >> understand that squishes in, not up.
Then Sunny said: >I have not found the Uniquely You dress forms to be squishable enough to >put a corset on it - the cover really compacts the foam down (at least >mine does...) to the point that there is no "squish" left for the corset >to manipulate. My current plan is to get a second cover and shape it to me >while I'm wearing a corset, and hopefully that will result in a corseted >form for draping/fitting on. Wouldnt trade my Uniquely You for any of those other make-do options like the plaster cast, the duct tape & the dial a figure things. A Uniquely You is less hard to do, certainly less messy than plaster, more accurate than tape, models the figure ever so much better, and is, price for performance, the best thing around. Y'all do know the birdseed beanbag trick, right? Put the corset on your dummy but you add birdseed beanbag boobs to get the "up" part. The size of your beanbag boobs will depend of course on the lady you are modelling. The foam can be reshaped, too. I have forward thrust shoulders & protrusive shoulderblades, so I whacked off a bit of foam from the back of the armstub & stuck it on shoulder blade. Do that with your dial a dummy! Sunny, let us know how the Uniquely You cover *over* a corset works. I wonder if you dont just have to buy a cover that's size up on the Uniquely You size chart. I'd considered trying this, too, but as I'm less generously endowed than most, well, let's just say, most times I can even leave off the birdseen beanbags. So, please let us know how it works. --cin Cynthia Barnes [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
