I have scaled down my ladies’ Regency Era patterns to fit the lovely half-scale display mannequins available from Truly Victorian! The scaled down ladies’ size 12 is a perfect fit for the dressform, and sewing up miniature garments for display is really enjoyable. The pattern also works for half-scale lady dolls.
This demi-ePattern includes all the options in the ladies’ pattern, including short and long sleeves. Thank you to customer Andrea T. for sharing the photos of her gorgeously outfitted doll!

Where did you buy your half scale dress form from? I really would like to buy a black one like this. Could you please e-mail me the website? I have been looking for a 1/2 scale like this for months.

I was wondering if it was possible to get epatterns of your gowns and scale them down to fit the demi-mannequin. I have one and was wondering if it were possinble to just scale the normal-sized e-patterns down myself (like perhaps shrink them 50% before printing?) and use them on my mannequin?

December 10, 2010 at 8:14 pm (891 days ago)Hi, Alexandra! yes, you can print them at 50%. The only difficulty is that each individual sheet in the ePattern shrinks, which means you get 20-35 sheets of paper with the 1/2-scale pieces instead of 5-15. The demi-patterns are already scaled to fit on fewer pages.

May 4, 2012 at 11:43 am (380 days ago)Hi, Ali! This pattern is only sized for the 1/2-sized dressform. If you’re looking for the ladies’ Regency Gown pattern, it is available in sizes 6-18, plus an 18-26 supplement. Be sure to check the measurement chart, as pattern sizes aren’t the same as off-the-rack. Thanks!
