    haha, love the first replies! I tried the duct tape one a while ago but it didnt really work for me unfortunetly Happy. I also have a hormonal imbalance which means my weight goes up and down quite quickly so I want something where I can change the measurements. I've now seen a pretty floral one adjustoform one on Amazon so I think I'm going to go with that one Happy:http://www.amazon.co.uk/Floral-Adjustable-Dressmakers-Dummy-Small/dp/B006GAOW8O/ref=pd_sxp_grid_pt_0_0

    I'm also interested in the answer to this question... recently lost quite a bit of weight and looking to make my blouses smaller rather than buy new ones.

    Depends realy on what kind you use. I added some to a dress a couple of years ago just using a standard stitch with a sewing machine and it has stayed put. I think if you used a very delicate lace you would need to be more careful.

    There's different ways of sewing it on this website: http://www.homesewingprojects.com/Sewing-with-Lace.html

    If you buy something not too delicate I reckon you could just unstitch where the flowers are and insert the lace by stitching over where the previous stich was.

    You could turn it inside out and tie a knot with a hairband on one of the sides then turn it back the right way. You'd still need to do something with the sleeved though
