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 file download, shown as a graded nest and color-coded for each size. (Sizes are also number labeled, if printing in black-and-white is desired). This PDF file also features separate layers to allow for printing of individual sizes.

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 (PDF DOWNLOAD)

These are pattern blocks / slopers meant to be used as templates by experienced pattern makers. They are NOT completed sewing patterns, and therefore DO NOT HAVE SEAM ALLOWANCES.

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.
