Time to go to bed. Could you contact the seller to get the dress length? I've done that because I'm just 5'3" but the hems seem to hit the same place on me as they do the models, who I'd assume are taller. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mannequin-arm-length#post-1147142 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 03:56:56 +0000 Gigi 1147142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When I'm trying to figure out how long something is, I usually guesstimate the height of the model (or mannequin?)--which is usually around 5'8", I think--and see where the dress or top hits her on her body. Then I think about how much shorter I am than the model and guesstimate how much longer the dress or top will be on me. I am 5'2" and usually assume that the garment will hit me a few inches further down than on the model.</p> <p>I wonder if there is a standard mannequin height? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mannequin-arm-length#post-1146992 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 00:51:23 +0000 Peri 1146992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don't know either, but wow, that's a great dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mannequin-arm-length#post-1146922 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 22:36:21 +0000 Mo 1146922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lol! &nbsp;I just ordered it and we'll see . . .&nbsp;<br />I'm definitely shorter than all mannequins! &nbsp;;)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mannequin-arm-length#post-1146917 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 22:28:43 +0000 Liz A. 1146917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I often wonder about model arm length because I have long arms and a lot of sweaters look short on the models arms. For a while I never wore long sleeves cuz they were all too short. Ok enough thread jacking. Sorry I can't help. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mannequin-arm-length#post-1146877 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 21:28:09 +0000 carter 1146877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This question made me laugh! I have no idea what the answer may be, but whatever it is, you definitely have the legs for this dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mannequin-arm-length#post-1146873 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 21:25:12 +0000 Mo 1146873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know it's a weird question, but do any of you who work in retail or sew know the length of a standard mannequin's arms down to the fingertips? &nbsp;I'm trying to figure out just how long this dress is. &nbsp; Thanks! </p>
