Hi have you thought of making your own there are a couple on this site just type in dress form into the search box at top right and look at the techniques listed. They work really well as a low cost alternative to a commercially purchased dress form and are true to your size. Hope this helps.

Hello! If the above relpy is about making a duct tape dressform I definitely second that…
Just remember to tape the neck too because I forgot so it was kind of pointless!

made a duct tape dress form recently for myself, with mom’s help with the duct tape. It was a lot of fun and it works great!

i have and enjoyed every ridiculous moment of construction as i was assisted by my less than enthusiastic boyfriend lol. i’ve used it to its limit and it served its purpose well. i was just looking for something more permanent and a little more functional, thanks so much for replying!
