Known for their accurate fit created using real life body data, AlvaForm dress forms are a widely popular choice among fashion design institutional programs and professionals. While typically an expensive investment, the AlvaForm fit can now be achieved through these custom-made blocks/slopers.
These Pant blocks / slopers were drafted for and fitted on a genuine AlvaForm dress form, size 8, Model 2005. The base size 8 was then graded up and down to create the full 2-14 size run of the AlvaForm Standard Global series. All sizes are included in this printout, shown as a graded nest that is color-coded and number labeled for each size. **If you would like a printout of a single size only, OR individual printouts of all sizes (not layered), please send me a message and we can arrange a custom order.
These Pant blocks come to you as a DOUBLE SET, containing two different classic fit variations: 2-Dart Trousers, and 1-Dart Slacks. Please refer to the listing photos for descriptions and visuals of each.
A note on fit: Please observe the photos of the AlvaForm dress form proportions and review the measurement chart for perspective on the fit of this brand of dress form. AlvaForm is the best choice when the wearer has a "curvier" figure with a fuller/more shapely rear end, and a slightly back-tilted pelvis. If drafting for figures with flatter/less full rear ends and a forward tilting pelvis, be sure to check out my WolfForm Pant Blocks listing here: Wolf Form (Sizes 4-18) Pant Pattern Blocks / Slopers - Trouser & Slack Double Set (PRINTED PATTERN)

See included measurement charts for exact measurements of finished garment with ease, and corresponding body/dress form size measurements.
Please note that dress form size numbers do not typically correspond with standard ready-to-wear sizing when purchasing clothing. You will want to refer to the included measurement chart to ensure proper size selection.

The pattern, along with the YouTube “how to” video was professional and easy to understand. This, along with a recently purchased dress form, will move my home sewing projects to the next level. It’s time to make a more fitted look and I am excited!
