Vintage Adjustable Height Dress Form Papier-mâché Female Mannequin Paper Mache. Vintage dress form with adjustable base, possibly a “molded-to you” by Singer. These forms were made at Singer shops and would have been an exact duplicate of the persons body. Original copper painted body with dark green boobs. Comes with more brass tacks which were originally pinned on the form. I’ve lightly restored the base by giving it a fresh coat of black enamel and gold leaf accents to the hardware. General wear from use and age. Two areas at the bottom of the body have damage. Two wires on the base have separated from a metal ring but it doesn’t affect the form standing. Thin, model like structure. Will be added shortly. Welcome to my shop. All items are hand selected by me and most are vintage or antique. Please take a moment to read the item description and feel free to ask questions. Vintage / antique items have lived a previous life and will naturally show signs of use and/or age. I do my very best to describe their condition accurately, but may not point out minor flaws that are naturally found in such items. This item is in the category “Business & Industrial\Retail & Services\Mannequins & Dress Forms”. The seller is “shophouseofillrepute” and is located in this country: US.
