I found a second-hand Uniquely You dress form - a very rare beast in Australia. It must be at least twenty years old based on the condition of the foam where it has been exposed to light at the neck.
It's about the right size, but when I removed the cover to alter it I found that the foam body has taken on the shape of the cover and it is too long in the waist for me. I have had a look on the web and found a picture of the form in its original shape without a cover. It shows that when new, the form doesn't have a waist line but is much the same thickness from breasts to hip. Have any of you had any experience with reshaping one of these dress forms? If I leave the cover off, will the foam gradually "spring" back towards the original shape?? I wish I could get a new one, but the quoted shipping charges to Australia are more than twice the cost of the dummy thanks in advance for any help or comments Annette Wilson (in Canberra, Australia) If you have received this transmission in error please notify us immediately by return e-mail and delete all copies.
