Good, But Missing Parts/Wrong Size
This product is an industry standard and a great resource if you have to change the size of your mannequin often. However, my order arrived with missing parts and mismatched size of the princess cover.

5.0 out of 5 stars Problem solver in a bag
Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2018

I purchased a separate adjustable dress form and know I would need to flesh it out with custom pads in order to recreate my measurements. I purchased a medium kit. I thought I would only need a portion of the set - you know, because my body looks just like a mannequin (HAHA!). Anyhoo, I received my padding system a day after my dress form and was ready to customize. The pads themselves are very contoured so that the edges don’t create a crease when added to the form. The guide that accompanied the order advised which shapes are my shoulder, abdomen, etc. HOWEVER, I will tell you that I chopped a few in half and had to utilize the bulk of some to achieve the appropriate bust size. I wish - if they don’t already - have a purely bust enhancing kit because I think that there are a fair amount of people (me and also drag queens) who have no rear, medium waist and larger chest. The set comes with a drawstring storage bag but I used all of the pieces to macguyver a solution to the lack of bust pieces. I used the other pieces under the bust piece and layered until I achieved the appropriate projection. As I am not a Kardashian, I also made use of the butt pads to accomplish what I needed in the bust area. I thinks it’s inportant to acknowledge that while the product was not the perfect solution out of the box - THIS PRODUCT IS EXCEPTIONALLY MADE. I was able to make it work so my tailoring was spot on. I’m sure people with more proportional bodies or hourglass figures would be able to use the parts in a more traditional manner. This product is a big time problem solver, allowed me to achieve the most appropriate likeness and as we all know - that’s priceless when it comes to fitting or tailoring a custom or couture quality piece. If I’m spending $500 or $5 on fabric, I want it perfect. On a final note, the set comes with a fitted, gored, stretchable sheath that goes over the dress form and then you slip the contoured pieces underneath. I personally should have probably gone one size up if I wanted it less snug on the form BUT not going up a size means there is absolutely no slip or slide to my layered pieces. I feel I was able to get a completely custom form in less than half an hour with little fuss. I’m a perfectionist freak show and your approach may take less but I measured and remeasured a gazillion times. This actually makes my form easier to use because I have more depth and contour to pin against instead of hard surface. Hope that’s helpful. This is worth every penny to me in terms of fit and finish results. I’ve finished up two garments already and am beginning an elaborate, expensive beaded couture Halloween mermaid. I wouldn’t be able to do the detailed fitting without this addition to my sewing world. I was not paid for this review. I paid full price for my padding set. I used it on a Dritz green adjustable dress form.

The Fabulous Fit System is awesome. Bought one set from Amazon and one directly from "Fabulous Fit". I have two dress form, one with legs and a short one. The cover for them is beautiful and great quality. I would wear it! :O}. I ended up buying a set of padded arms for my dress form as well. There was a little miscommunication with my order and the company made it right immediately. They were in contact with me and followed up to make sure I was 100% happy and satisfied with the product and service. Yes, I am!!! I highly recommend them and their product. I am a forever customer!!!

this is a great system! unfortunately, i meant to order the complete system, but accidentally ordered the basic. i needed to pad a dress form immediately for an online class, so had to use it right away. i needed a bit more, so i supplemented with batting—not an ideal solution! i ordered the full system and will be using it and removing the batting. this is a wonderful company. i wish. had ordered their dress form as well.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice enough
Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2021

I purchased this to pad out my dress form so it more closely resembled my shape. I got the XL set as I am QUITE curvy 44" bust 36" underbust 34" waist and 47" hips. It nice enough but there aren't enough pads to make an accurate model. I will need to purchase 1 more set. The bust area is ok because I placed a bra on my dress form and put the shoulder and bust pads in to fill the cups. was able to get the waist to 32" and that should work as I wear corsets but the hips definitely need more padding.

I purchased a dritz dress form, and it needed more curves, so these pads gave my dress form a figure. The pads are easy to use, and the directions helped a lot. The cover for the dress form has Princess seams, which is important for a designer. Great purchase.

The pads are good quality but my order came with only 11 pads rather than the 14 advertised and with the princess seam cover but not the side seam cover. The pads I'm missing seem to be the fillers and the upper hips, I was really counting on the fillers as I'm using this kit to make my form larger as well as make the shape more specific. the princess seam cover isn't great in quality, it's quite see through and the elastic at the bottom is thin and doesn't hold it down very well. Hopefully It will work significantly better when combined with the side seam cover. I was hoping to widen the shoulders of my form which the pads do well but the arm holes in the cover are so large that the pads peek out when they're not perfectly in line with my forms existing shoulders. I've messaged the company about the missing cover and hopefully I'll hear back in a timely fashion and get all the parts together. I'm thinking it'll need some modification I'm thinking I'll make a 3rd cover that can fit a little more snugly once I have the shape worked out, possibly with a zipper. Overall, a useful concept but not the all you need kit it claims to be, more of a starting point.

I’m using the basic set to build a wedding dress for a very petite bride with a beautiful figure. The black princess cover is a perfect thickness and of high quality. The product was delivered as promised and packaged securely.
I had a quick question and customer support was great; I was called back as I requested with the hour!!! I love fabulous fit and you will too!!
