You will learn of the materials required to make the form and & you will receive carefully worked-out, step-by-step instructions to make it. Excerpt: “You are now going to learn something that has never been taught in any dressmaking course before. You are going to learn how to fit your own figure, without any outside aid whatever, without a dress form or a model lining. a little work and time—and you have before you a duplicate of your own figure with every little line and curve just exactly where it ought to be! This new way of fitting the figure, makes it easy for everyone in the family to have a perfectly-proportioned form of their own.”
These instructions are from 1926 but [I think] they are still relevant to our modern day. The main material used in making the homemade dress form is gummed paper. However, I would think you could use pre-pasted wallpaper and have the same results. It is quite common to find old or scrap wallpaper at thrift stores and garage sales (I’ve often found it in the “free box”). I have not tried this wallpaper technique, so I can’t say for sure if it would work, but my guess is that it would.
