A lot of us have a dressmakers dummy which needs altering for various reasons, either we put weight on, or take it off, or just simply sag with age.
What do you think is the best way to alter her?
Especially am I interested in the swayback syndrome.

There's an article in the new Threads magazine with Kenneth King that details this.
