For
Boutiques and tailors needing custom dress forms
Worth noticing
The cardboard dress form has three listed formats: digital file ($150), flat-pack kit ($350), and assembled ($650).

Field notes

Allpass describes a made-to-order practice spanning digital files, physical fabrication, embroidery, and small software tools. The dress-form listing gives three price points—$150 for a file, $350 for a flat-pack kit, and $650 assembled—and says the form is made to a shop’s measurements. The page also lays out an order process: half down, then the remaining balance and actual shipping before the piece ships.
