What is a Child Tailors Dummy?
A child tailors dummy is a smaller version of a standard tailors dummy designed specifically for children’s clothing. It is a three-dimensional representation of a child’s body, just like an adult tailors dummy, and serves similar purposes in the fashion industry. These dummies are available in various sizes to accommodate different age ranges and body types of children.
How do you use a Child Tailors Dummy?
These dummies are used by designers, dressmakers, and retailers to create and adjust patterns for children’s clothing. They allow designers to visualise how garments will fit and hang on a child’s body, ensuring proper proportions and comfort. Like adult tailors dummies, child tailors dummies also play a crucial role in visual merchandising, enabling retailers to showcase children’s garments appealingly and realistically to attract customers.
Child’s tailors dummies are particularly valuable for creating made-to-measure clothing for children. By using a child’s tailors dummy, dressmakers can ensure that the garments they create will fit perfectly and provide optimum comfort for young wearers.
Features of a Child Tailors Dummy:
This child tailors’ dummy can be used for both girls’ and boys’ clothing. The dummy is unisex and can be used to display clothes, as well as for clothes making. The body is made from polystyrene and has a natural-coloured jersey fabric finish. As a result, you can pin it to the dummy without it being damaged.
