chocolatepotI went to Mom's for the afternoon so we (she) could alter the dress form cover so it would match my measurements, and I just spent at least half an hour getting the cover on the foam form. I bought the largest size cover for the medium form, and I can't even imagine how people who get the smallest manage.
I'm being overly critical of the thing because in my mind I'd built it up to be The Answer to all my problems, but: it doesn't quite fill out the cover right, the bust is kind of too low and the hips manage to be a bit loose, since my hips are where the waist ought to be. In general it manages to be slightly bigger than me.
But this is pretty silly. (Although my thumbs still hurt from pulling and pulling on the zipper, not happy about that.) In general, it's fantastic that I've now got a dress form that's basically my size and has a high waist!
