The Sewing Online FG268 is an essential tool for dressmakers and tailors who need a versatile, professional-grade mannequin capable of handling both dresses and trousers. Its key benefit lies in the specialized off-centre column and adjustable design, which allow garments to drape naturally and accommodate precise fitting; however, users should note that its specific sizing range may not be suitable for petite or smaller garment makers outside of the 100-119cm bust range.

The bust adjusts from 100-119cm, waist 81-101cm, hips 104-122cm, and back length 38-42cm.
Yes, the form is designed for both; the off-centre column is specifically for trousers, but it performs perfectly for dresses.
The unit weighs less than 3.5kg, making it very portable.
Yes, the product is covered by a two-year guarantee.
Yes, the foam-backed nylon cover is designed specifically to accept pins for marking and draping.
The mannequin can be adjusted to a maximum height of 193cm.
Ensure that the internal locking mechanism is fully released before attempting to adjust the size.
Check that the mannequin is on a perfectly level floor surface and that all four legs of the stand are firmly touching the ground.
Tighten the main central bolt connecting the torso to the four-legged base stand.
To set up the FG268, insert the four-legged stand into the base and attach the mannequin torso, ensuring the column is securely locked at your desired height. When cleaning, use only a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe the nylon cover; avoid using harsh detergents that might degrade the fabric or the internal adjustment dials. Periodically check the tension on the dials to ensure they remain snug. Store the unit in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture accumulation in the foam-backed interior. If you need to store it long-term, consider covering it with a fabric bag to protect the exterior from dust.
